After following the surprising Neretva River to Mostar in Bosnia as part of our BiH road trip and Ten Weeks in Europe, we’re back-tracking from Mostar to the Buna River junction and then heading south toward Stolac Bosnia – a town that was destroyed by war in the summer of 1993.

The Palatine Hill Roman Forum and the Colosseum are the top three sites in Rome Italy. Imperial palaces have been built on the site of the Palatine Hill, since Augustus built one back in 27BC. So much so, that this is where the word Palace originates from. Partial ruins of Augustus, Tiberius and Domitians’ palaces …

My interest in Pula came to life a few years ago when a friend visited on a month long trip through Croatia. He sent rave reviews -photos of tiny fish being cooked over the fire and served with a simple salad – the flavour divine. His stories of arriving in Pula by ferry and enjoying …

The so called Valley of the Temples in south-western Sicily sprawls along the ridge tops near the town of Agrigento. The ridge falls away to valleys on both sides, one lush green and treed toward the town and another over brown then manicured fields to the ocean. On this side the fields are divided by …

Driving in Sicily can be challenging. Much to my dismay as chief navigator, I discovered how easy it was to become lost, even when using a GPS as well as a paper map. Keeping in mind that trips can take much longer than anticipated, it is a most enjoyable way to explore and reveal this scenic …

Having visited three of the major historical sights of Rome, the Palatine Hill, The Roman Forum and the Colosseum the nearby Baths of Caracalla are a must see Roman destination. I’m not sure why this ancient thermal baths complex, built in 212AD isn’t more popular because it is a spectacular ruin set amidst beautiful landscaping. However it’s …
