Dubrovnik Sunset
Photographing sunsets for me is not always so easy. But these are a few pics that I thought came out nice and captured the moment. The photos were taken from the mountain top and using the Dubrovnik cable car ride to go up.
Dobrodošli (Welcome) to Dubrovnik!
This year’s travels takes me to a part of Europe that I have not visited before but I have heard so many good things about….to Dubrovnik. I’m stunned by the number of people, including my traveler friends who have asked, “Dubrovnik??? Why would you want to go there?” I thought to myself, “why not?”
From Food Trucks to Haute Cuisine
By no means am I a culinary expert. I have nowhere near the training or experience to consider myself a food or restaurant critic. But how can one go to Paris and not talk about food, right? In the past, with the exception of “take away” foods such as falafels, quiches, or sandwiches…
