I don't have others.

Seems like I need to take the entire month of March off from work (too many extra hours and my boss is refusing to pay me more, haha) so I will try to go on another trip.

I am going to flood this place with pictures if I go to costa rica this year.

Nikki those falls are absolutely magical.

all of the pictures that you have taken and posted are sensational.

Costa Rica? Lucky you.

I'm unsure about where to go in March. I had Kosovo, Macedonia and Albania on my mind as "new countries to visit" for this year. Unfortunately I think that it might still be too cold. Then again, I thought it would also be too cold in Bosnia but during some days we didn't even need a jacket to go out. I will simply wait until February and then book a flight.

Portugal is also on my list of places to visit. I haven't been to Lisbon, Sintra and the Algarve coast. I would like to see these places. Maybe Porto as well. I assume that is a better plan for March although anywhere near Bosnia would definitely be a lot better.

In the end I might just spend a week in Portugal and then go back to my dear Balkans. A month is loooong.

My plan is to visit at least 5 countries this year where I haven't been yet. The Balkan countries mentioned above would already be 3 new countries for me. Then maybe Greece and Turkey as well... hahaha.

looks like you are the lucky one Nikkster: 5 countries.

wow. that is impressive. you are going to be able to experience so many different cultures and stuff.

costa rica is very do-able for me as it is only about a 3 hour flight from new Orleans. I have been dreaming about costa rica.

Nikki · « **Reply #49 on:** January 11, 2014, 06:40:31 am »

In the end it will be even more than 5. Gonna keep my fingers crossed.

Costa Rica is really not that far away from New Orleans by plane. If I wanted to go there, I would visit some of the surrounding countries as well. Like that the loooong trip would really be worth it for me.

I could not agree more.

I am going to make it happen: either this year or next year for sure.

I need to start planning and line up a few friends as well.

Počitelj (BiH) is a really old fortified town with architecture from the Ottoman period and the Middle Ages. Apparently it was built in 1383.
When we walked up to the fortress we saw so many trees with delicious pomegranates. We served ourselves, of course.

Many steps...

Hola Nikki. Back from vacation I see.

Love that picture btw. So beautiful. I was just reading about the Ottoman period today. Fascinating stuff.

Love pomegranates. Delicious indeed. I eat those all the time. very good for the blood.

When are you taking your next trip?

Portugal, Greece, Turkey all sounds very interesting. Love the idea about Macedonia and Albania.

Gawd, I get a month or 4 weeks in total vacation for the whole year. Any more and my company will be looking for me with a flashlight. Can't afford even two weeks in a row. Oh well, will have to make the best out of it I guess and visit 2 'new' countries per year. After I buy my house that is.

I'm still working as freelancer so I can choose my working hours freely. The more extra hours I work, the more holidays I get. That is quite convenient. I'm looking for a "normal" job though which means as soon as I find one, I will only get between 5-6 weeks of paid holidays each year.

I might go somewhere at the end of February. I still don't know yet where to go. A weekend in Lisbon would be perfect although I would prefer to have a few more days to get to know other places...

Emma · « **Reply #54 on:** January 15, 2014, 06:04:59 pm »

I didn't know you work as a freelancer. That is so cool. You should keep doing what you are doing if you can afford it. No wonder your pictures looks so good.

Nikki · « **Reply #55 on:** January 20, 2014, 02:53:44 am »

I will try to keep my job although it is very tedious. Especially at the moment it is also very stressy with trade fairs coming up.

Emma · « **Reply #56 on:** January 22, 2014, 07:39:33 am »

To be honest, if you (that goes for everyone) don't love your job then all jobs feel that way. I am okay with my job right now but I know in my heart that there's something else out there for me that I'd love doing, so I am kind of on the lookout. Because I am a person of great passion, I can't get into the routine thing in life. I get so bored so. That's the sole reason why my relationships suffer as well because eventually I lose interest and I don't want to go with it anymore. So I've decided to put all that behind me, marriage, relationships, kids etc. stuff and find out what really makes me happy. Anyway, I think that's the key - find out your passion and stick to it as long as you can if it still feels strong. For example, I loved Samrpas and that was more than a decade ago and I noticed that, I still love him just as much, so that was one of my true passion I know. I think it's the same with Andy.

I think I need to post some new pics soon.

Since this morning I finally have my old office back and all of a sudden I feel quite happy with my job. Hahaha. Maybe it is all just temporary because it is my first day at work after a bit more than one month. We will see.

Emma · « **Reply #58 on:** April 05, 2014, 12:31:35 pm »

Yes, it's about time for that. Looking forward to it.

Nikki · « **Reply #59 on:** April 23, 2014, 10:45:03 am »

Let's post some pics.

Ljubljana (Slovenia)

I'm going back there on Friday. Maybe this time I will get the chance to go all the way up to the castle.

There are really not that many pictures online which show the real beauty of this place. Hahaha.
