Srilanka: The final leg of our one year around the world journey. Going to Ceylon after about a month of touring India seemed the obvious thing to do. We couldn't wait to get there after the hurdles we experienced in there. So... Was Sri Lanka worth it?

Albania, Tirana
Tirana, city of awesome dips and kebabs. We had a great time enjoying cheap eats such as great quality Italian pastas, Greek Giros and Albanian goodies as well, of course.

We saved the best for last and went for a bunker … [Read more...] about Albania, Tirana

We loved Belgrade for its cleanness, foodie … [Read more...] about Serbia, Belgrade, Nis

My bad as I only checked the conditions of the booking once at the bus station. So lesson learned, always plan your checkin ahead of time. We took tram 1, a circular line, to get to the old town. The tram ticket … [Read more...] about Sarajevo, Bosnia
