Jubilee in Liechtenstein

Jubilee in Liechtenstein

My little jubilee, the 50th country visited was Liechtenstein. And boy what a ceremony happened. The Principality of Liechtenstein and the Swiss Confederation were celebrating the 100 years of their common Dounae contract. We were about to cross the bridge that was built over the river Rhine, but we were stopped as the celebration was just…

Krapina and Zagorje – a fairytale at hand 🧚

Krapina and Zagorje – a fairytale at hand 🧚

Krapina is my hometown. Zagorje runs through veins. Kajkavian dialect is spoken out loud by my core.  So please, allow me to show you a portion of heaven given to us people from Zagorje to enjoy, nourish, and remain proud.  Krapina Krapina was first mentioned in 1193. It has always been a favorite site for…

Salon-de-Provence, following Nostradamus’ prophecies

Salon-de-Provence, following Nostradamus’ prophecies

Michel de Notre-Dame, as we all know as Nostradamus, was an apothecary by profession, and published in the year 1555 a book called Les Prophéties (The Prophecies). In his collection of 942 poetic quatrains, he predicted various future events that experts, and many amateurs, find a way of interpreting into related events occurring in the present day. Some historical evidence suggests…

This is going to be a short post. Sanremo is a city on the west coast of Italy, in the province of Liguria. It is the capital of the Riviera dei Fiori or Riviera of Flowers. Its casino also makes it a sort of Italian version of Monte Carlo.  This large building in Art Nouveau…

Genoa, Italy

Genoa, Italy

Vivid green pesto, great wine and fabulous walks … Genoa is a city of indulgence. Driving in the city, noticing it’s fabulous big secession buildings it reminded me of the importance of Italy: banks, trades, imports of goods and businesses… Genoa was a medieval rival to Venice. It’s not been primped for tourists like Venice, though.…

Rapallo, Italia

Rapallo, Italia

Rapallo was never on my list. I never thought there could actually be something about this city. It lies on the Ligurian Sea coast, just between Cinque Terre and Genoa. As a girl from Croatia, I know it from the history books as the Treaty of Rapallo was signed there, in Villa Pagana, formerly known as Villa Spinola. A treaty…

San Marino

San Marino

Tintine was slowly climbing up the hills of San Marino. Not much pressure should have been put on this car as she had enough of the shocks in the last year or two. The hills around us were rising and soon we found ourselves surrounded by an amazing view. It was San Marino surrounded by…

Tutti i Trulli di Alberobello, Italia

Tutti i Trulli di Alberobello, Italia

My Life in Sicily finished after a year spent on this island. It was time to turn on my Tintine (a beautiful red car), hop on a ferry and say goodbye. I was nostalgic as a was driving through Reggio Calabria. But soon I was in Puglia – the region with the best Italian cheeses.…

The Three Kings meeting again.
