New blog post. This one is about one of the jewels of the Adriatic - Dubrovnik, Croatia. One of the most beautiful and compelling places I've been to. Yeah, I know it's the setting for Kings Landing, but I've never watched GOT so that's not why I went or what it's about for me. An absolute gem of an almost-perfectly-preserved Medieval town. So special.
