Europe’s Least Interesting Capital
My guide book does not really promote the Montenegrin capital very well. However, as I passed through for the third time, I decided it was time for a short stroll through the city. So, I spent just over two hours exploring Podgorica. Continue reading Europe’s Least Interesting Capital

14 Hours in Belgrade
Just 14 hours are not very much for exploring Belgrade. However, I did not have more time as my night train from Vienna did not arrive until after 8.00 a.m., and my next night train (to Montenegro) already left at 10.10 p.m. Still, I had enough time to get a first impression of the city. Continue reading 14 Hours in Belgrade

Am I in Russia?
As I enjoyed Kotor that much, I have been looking forward to my next destination, Budva. This time, however, my (now quite high) expectations have not been fulfilled. Continue reading Am I in Russia?

Fjord of the South
From Dubrovnik, I continued down the coast to the South, into Montenegro. Even while I was still on the bus on my way to Kotor, I had already decided that I really like this area. Continue reading Fjord of the South

Things to know about Dubrovnik
When you are travelling, you can learn quite a few things. For me, my stay in Dubrovnik meant learning some things about the city that I did not expect – mainly because these were things a travel guide will not really talk about. Continue reading Things to know about Dubrovnik

A Sinful Place on Earth
My first few hours in Las Vegas were (surprisingly enough) quite pleasant: a last dinner with my fellow travellers, some free Casino Shows – what more could you ask for? Continue reading A Sinful Place on Earth

High-Speed Sightseeing in San Francisco
My "Best of the West" tour (organized by Trek America) was due to start in San Francisco today, so I flew in yesterday. In the afternoon, I went on a whirlwind tour of the city. Continue reading High-Speed Sightseeing in San Francisco

Manhattan Revisited
Even though I tried to focus on Brooklyn during this visit, I could not resist spending some time in Manhattan as well. During my time there, I revisited some sights, where I have already been before (e.g. Central Park or my favourite museum, the AMNH), but I have also managed to include some "firsts" into my itinerary. Continue reading Manhattan Revisited

Brooklyn Discovered
Even though I have lived in Brooklyn for four months (during my study abroad), I have not yet visited much of its sights. As my friend whom I visited this time also lives in Brooklyn, I took the opportunity to catch up on tourist sights in this borough. Continue reading Brooklyn Discovered
