It was officially time for a holiday. To the land of beer and dragons! SLOVENIA!
Our good friend Uros, drove an hour from Ljubljana and picked us up from the airport in Trieste, Italy because he is awesome and generous. We then drove into Piran for a little evening stroll through the tiny medieval town followed by one of the most delicious meals. SQUID. INK.
Dinner was unbelievable.
Aside from the beautiful bearded men…
We dined by the sea…
Cuttlefish salad…
AS PROMISED. So inky. ❤
Spaghetti with Clams…
Jesus Christ. So delicious. It’s painful to look at these photos now.
Prosciutto & Cheese Stuffed Squid.
After a few Slovenian beers and finishing the delicious seafood feast, we decided to drive into Croatia to up the country count. We stopped at a very out of the way pub full of local fisherman in Umag and had a cheeky beer. We were sat outside despite the wintry evening temperatures and every 5 minutes the electricity went out and all you could see was a vast black sky full of stars. BEST.
This is the only proof of me being in Croatia!
First day, so far sooooooooooo good! More from this trip to come soon! x
