Dobrodosli / Welcome

Dubrovnik is by many the most beautiful town in Croatia. As a biiig, proud patriot - I could not agree more.
However, I find it VERY unexciting to waste my life stuck in one place (as my motto says...). This is why I try to "take off" at least 3 times a year. As you can see from my page - I have seen few places. Many more to go. Man - I love to travel!
I hope you enjoy my travel pages, pics - and if anyone has any questions - please feel free to ask.
I wish all of you happy and safe travels!

It declared its independence from the former Yugoslavia in 1991 and gained worldwide recognition by 1992 - but well-known fighting (think Bosnia) continued until 1995. One of the hardest hit areas in the fighting was Dubrovnik, at the very southern tip of the new Croatia nation.

Dubrovnik is a sheer delight. It is one of the two or three most picturesque cities I have seen anywhere. The best way I can describe Dubrovnik is..."
