Balkans: What I have been doing
Saturday, June 16, 2007
For the past week I have been travelling around the Balkans (for the most part). This is what I have done:
I was taught traditional Hungarian folk dances by two girls from a troupe at a party overlooking the Danube, swum beneath waterfalls in Krka, free climbed cliffs to enter an inaccesible watchtower in Split, sea kayaked around old city walls in Dubrovnik, ran uphill to a fortress overlooking the largest fjord in Europe in Montenegro, met the perfect girl (who, unfortunately, had a boyfriend), stood atop a a mineret above a war-torn city in Bosnia, and got drunk on grape brandy on a beach today... Tonight to Poland, tomorrow to Ukraine, where hopefully I will have enough time to post the pictures and stories that I have collected on this amazing trip.
