On all my many visits to the old town of Dubrovnik and its famous walls, I have always looked over at Lokrum and thought, “I need to visit it next time I’m here.” Well, that never happened for years — until recently, when I finally made it to Lokrum together with my cameraman — and […]
If you are planning a holiday in the Dubrovnik area, I recommend checking out Mlini and Srebreno — two charming villages located about 11–12 km south of Dubrovnik.

Cavtat is a super charming coastal village located 20 km south of Dubrovnik Old Town and a few km from the Dubrovnik Airport. Cavtat actually existed way before Dubrovnik did.

My first visit to Bol was back in June 2006. I was living in Split and went on a Golden Horn beach trip with family and friends. At the time, getting there was a real commitment — you had to take the car ferry from Split to Supetar, then travel across Brač by car or

I first visited Medulin in 2009 and have returned many times, mainly as part of my frequent Istria holidays, but I have also stayed there professionally. Medulin is located at the south end of the Istrian Peninsula. Often called the Tip of Istria, Medulin sits just a short drive southeast of Pula, about 10–15 minutes
