We booked our lake cruise on Get Your Guide before arriving in Montenegro because I wanted to make sure we got one. I needn't have worried, this place consists entirely of people trying to sell you a boat tour. You've got everything from one-man bands who don't really speak English to full outfits with staff [...]
The plan this morning was to go for a swim in a nearby river followed by a little jaunt up to a waterfall for more swimming. Possibly the kind of swimming that would cryogenically freeze all of your organs but the days were sticky and hot so we'd probably relish these few minutes of cold. [...]
Today we'd be driving to Bar. Or I'd be driving, Tarrant would be sitting in the passenger seat periodically reminding me that we're meant to be driving on the right and also I have a whole car to the right of me and she'd thank me to remember that when considering my road positioning. We [...]
We got a relatively early start on Monday on account of The Chores. Supermarkets don't open on Sundays in Montenegro (convenience shops do so don't panic, you can still buy beers) so we wanted to get some grocery shopping done in the morning, plus we needed some camping gas for the few nights we'd planned [...]
I do love an uneventful journey. I think I still have a spot of anxiety from when we went to Mallorca and if it could go tits up it absolutely did go tits up with utter malevolent glee culminating in a Segway accident, which Tarrant is still seeing a physio for a year later. Apparently [...]
Sunday - UFO tower Monday - City walking tour Tuesday - Hrad Devรญn Wednesday - Wine tasting Slovak food & drink Tarrant lost her penknife weeks ago. We had no idea where it might have been. She'd periodically turn the house upside-down looking for it to no avail, it was quite the mystery. Of course [...]
When I was researching this trip I discovered that Cรณrdoba is less than an hour away by train. When we talked about taking city breaks to assist with my mental health not taking an utter nose dive on account of the lack of long term travel whilst we saved for sensible grown up things such [...]
You have to book your tickets for the Real Alcรกzar quite far in advance if you want to be fussy about when you want to go and I would highly recommend you go as early as you can unless you're really quite fond of standing in a line of other humans, likely in stifling heat [...]
Alright, we're doing it, we're going back to Spain despite the fact last time we went if it could go tits up it very much did go tits up culminating in Tarrant stacking it off a segway in spectacular fashion and shattering her tibial plateau in the process. She's still walking with a stick and [...]
The decision to fuck off to Oslo during The Void, you know, that weird vortex between Christmas and New Year which usually consists entirely of leftovers and cheese, was a spontaneous one. I was chatting to a friend who lives in Oslo and she mentioned how her upcoming trip to London would be more expensive [...]
