Motovun Local Custom Tips by polardabar Top 5 Page for this destination

Gardens

I just loved sitting in the garden, sipping coffee & talking about witches... University life rules! :)

Food!

This is the way we ate - quite good actually... Dig in! :)

Truffles!

Truffles are a special kind of mushroom eaten in Istria (with Motovun like its core, having a festival). They have a very distinguished taste & an even more recognizable smell! They are basically only added to dishes, 'coz they are too strong to be eaten without anything - at least if you ask me... :) If you go to Motovun (or Istria), you're surely gonna taste them. :)

Language

Don't get confused when you see all the signs & street names in 2 languages! Italian is the 2nd official language in Istria!

Sitting, sipping & watching...

We had sat in a bar for a longer time, drinking coffee & debating. After that I had an introduction into Stockholm. Can you notice how concentrated I am? I'm paying so much attention! :)
