Country 63/196: Slovakia

Destination: Bratislava

Bratislava best view

For us, Slovakia has always been the country that is often confused with our home country – Slovenia. That is, until now. Since we have recently had the pleasure of visiting this beautiful country (even if we only got to visit its capital city) we fell in love. Slovakia is known for its rich history, spectacular castle ruins, beautiful cities, magnificent mountains (e.g. the High Tatras), diverse landscapes, and the lovely Danube River. ♥

Country 60/196: Cape Verde
Destination: Sal island

Our last African destination was a great one – Cape Verde or more precisely Sal island. It’s hard not to fall in love with this tiny island in the Atlantic, which is located almost halfway between Portugal and Brazil. Desert landscapes, beautiful beaches, a colorful city, welcoming people, spectacular salt ponds, and a gorgeous resort to celebrate (and mourn) the end of a great adventure. It was an absolute pleasure! 🙂 ♥

Cape Verde consists of 10 islands and 5 islets…

Country 59/196: Central African Republic
Destination: Bangui

Our ministry of foreign affairs strongly advised us against visiting the Central African Republic as it has many safety issues. However, our project includes us traveling to all sovereign countries of the world, therefore, we had to make the trip. Still, we decided to only stay in the country for a day. Even though the government has recently reached an agreement with the armed groups the situation in the country is still far from stable, which was obvious by the number of armed soldiers and UN workers on the streets of Bangui. However, during…
