Zagreb to Split

I arrived in Zagreb around 8 pm Friday evening. The city is super cute, sort of like the victoria of Croatia. I also got a chance to visit the public market on Saturday morning, which absolutely huge. If you're ever in Zagreb DON'T stay at the Carpe Diem hostel. I was woken up in the middle of the night, because some guy said I was in his bed. Turns out they double booked us. It's just super disorganized and the owner smelled of garlic and cabage... Stay far away!



The next morning I left for Split on the coast of Croatia. The train ride from Zagreb to Split was the most scenic ride so far, Croatia is such a beautiful country. It made me realize how lucky I am to be on this trip and see all this culture. Many European locals don't even get to visit half the cities I've seen. So for that I'm very grateful.




Moving down into the meditteranean is sort of an end to the first two weeks in eastern Europe. The pace, the weather, the people should all change now. Super excited :)




And of course I met up with Ninianne! We had a good time last night catching up and chilling along the seawall. We're going to leave tomorrow to do a little island hopping. Destination still to be determined :p
