Trippin' Vale

I'm unfortunately back from a tour through Slovenia and Croatia. I went backpacking with a friend for 12 days and I must say that I really miss the relaxed atmosphere. Our itinerary was: Ljubljana - Postojna caves - Zagreb - Plitvice Lakes - Split - Trogir - Dubrovnik so it was quite a big distance, considering that we always moved by train and coach, but I'm happy about it because it gave me the opportunity to see a lot more than I would have if I had gone there by plane. Croatia was an incredibly contradictory place: Zagreb is really a lively city, but just within an hour from the capital all you see is scattered houses on whose walls you still see bullet and shell holes from the war..it was almost paradoxical. Plitvice Lakes are one of the most impressive places I've seen in my life, I'll mostly be posting pictures from there but it's almost impossible to capture their atmosphere, which is a good thing because otherwise there would be no point in seeing certain things in person and not on a screen^^ but anyway I did my best to convey what it looks like and feels like to be there so I hope you'll enjoy!
