Train train to Paris

Woke up on time and checked out of the airbnb with no issues. Got a decent sleep too. Hehe I also got to have my indulgent McDonald's breakfast 🙂 Here they do table service and also have tea in a normal porcelain cup if you eat in! Nice!! I got a sausage Mcmuffin with bacon... … Continue reading Train train to Paris →

First non-Bach day in Leipzig :)

I slept alright all things considered, staying in a room above a bar! I had quality, industrial-approved ear plugs so that helped... until the adjoining room neighbours started talking loudly for hours... 😦 The noise from the bar wasn't too bad. It was more the vibrations from the bass... You can feel it pulsing! I … Continue reading First non-Bach day in Leipzig 🙂 →

Leaving for Leipzig

Got ready in the AM and after making breakfast and lunch for the day, I check out and get to the bus station without any issues. I took the Leo Express bus (they have trains too) and it was on time. There was machine coffee on the bus (I assume it was free?) and free … Continue reading Leaving for Leipzig →

Full day out in Prague

Good walk to the castle this morning. I left the house at about 8:45am and it was a bit cooler for a walk. It did get humid early by the time I got there around 930am-ish! People working there seemed bored or unhappy I got a ticket from a nice fellow for the Prague … Continue reading Full day out in Prague →

Pokin’ around Prague

Got some good sleep finally, after tossing and turning a bit at night. I made some instant noodles for breakfast hehe Gosh they were tasty! 😀 I walked through the park and there is a VERY public urinal. Basically it's a 3 sided stand alone urinal that men can just walk over to and lean … Continue reading Pokin’ around Prague →

Nature walk in Split

I got up early and made breakfast to take away with me. I wanted to take advantage of the cooler weather in the morning to walk around and explore the Marjan Forest Park. It was a good decision (despite being a bit tired and sleepy!) to take in more of the day and the cooler … Continue reading Nature walk in Split →

Splendid day in Split

Took it easy this morning and lazed around as it was either taking the 7am or 9:50am train... no way I could do 7am today haha! I was told I could buy the ticket on the train but there was a bit of a kerfuffle on the train train as we had a slight miscommunication. … Continue reading Splendid day in Split →

Exploring outside of Sarajevo

I was sound asleep through the night. S said it was noisy with alarms but I heard nothing! Double checked my visa requirements and it's a total of 90 days in any rolling 180 days in the Schengen visa zone + wherever I have a long stay visa, those days do not count towards the … Continue reading Exploring outside of Sarajevo →

23C in Sarajevo :)

Bought food for breakfast at the grocery store all by myself haha No problem getting to the grocery shop and bread shop. There are some larger supermarkets like Bingo, but I just went to the nearby convenience store. They spoke some basic English there and you can pay by card so it's very easy. Here, … Continue reading 23C in Sarajevo 🙂 →

First full day in Budapest

Had a pretty decent sleep at the hostel, even though it was pretty hot. Got to breakfast and it's not what I'm used to: white bread, museli, cereal...typical hostel breakfast. I had a few bites. Chatted with a young fellow from Brussels and he's traveling with a friend. They were thinking of going to Sofia … Continue reading First full day in Budapest →
