Home Sick

If there were only a car that could take me to visit Croatia and Bosnia on a regular basis, I would be a very happy lady. This summer I plan to jump on a plane and go back home for a little while. Here are the locations I will visit while there.

Opuzen, Croatia
This is my mom's home town where I summered as a child; I also lived here two years before I came to America. It's a very special little town to me.


The pictures above were taken by a local photographer, Ivo Ožić.

Above photo was taken by me

Also, every summer there is a paddle race between surrounding towns that I always go watch. It's really amazing and fun. The men paddle down the Neretva River from Metković, Croatia to the beach in Ploče, Croatia which is aprox 15 miles in distance.


The Dalmatian coast has beautiful beaches so I will be rolling around in all of this as well.






I'll also be taking the train to Sarajevo, Bosnia which is where my dad grew up and where I lived for the most part while living over seas.

I'll will be traveling around to other cities and hopefully make it to a surrounding country or two but these are the main two places I will visit. Time to start saving!
