The Honeymoon Begins - Dubrovnik, Croatia
The walled city of Dubrovnik, known as the “Pearl of the Adriatic”, is situated at the southernmost tip of Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast. With its marble-lined promenade, medieval architecture, and terra cotta tiled rooftops, it makes for a pleasant history-filled introduction to the Balkans. Enjoy its laid-back lifestyle with an order of risotto with squid ink, and a carafe of local white wine. Dubrovnik marked the start of our “honeymoon”. After enjoying our stay there, we explored the Dalmatian coast, including the island of Korcula where, according to local folklore, Marco Polo was born. www.uncorneredmarket.com/

Dubrovnik Fisherman - Croatia
Thanks to fishermen like this one, Dubrovnik is brimming with fresh seafood, from sea bass to cuttlefish. It’s possible to buy the catch of the day from fisherman from villages along the Dalmatian Coast. If you are renting an apartment and have access to a grill, we highly recommend this experience. © www.uncorneredmarket.com

A Little Switzerland in the Balkans - Ljubljana, Slovenia
The Swiss are said to flinch when Slovenia is described as the “Switzerland of the Balkans”. But the country makes a strong case for the comparison with its decidedly alpine feel and virtually unscathed emergence from the former Yugoslavia. Besides being virtually impossible to prounounce on first glance, Ljubljana offers a youthful college town culture with its galleries, museums, students, and young artists. It serves as an ideal jumping-off point for Slovenia’s other underrated tourist sites. © www.uncorneredmarket.com
