Tuesday, September 9th – Wednesday, September 10th, 2025 World Tour Days: 312 – 313 After our amazing roadtrip in Slovenia it was time to board an early morning train to start our journey to Hungary. The train station was an easy 40 minute walk from our accommodation. The train station itself was under renovation, though, so finding the track area took us a few attempts. Those are times where its nice to have such a chill travel companion like Nick, no stress. Everything was in Hungarian, but we managed to find our train no problem. We had a short layover…

Monday, September 1st, – Monday, September 8th, 2025 World Tour Days: 304 – 311 Day 1: Lake Bled Our road trip got off to a slightly rocky start, hard to say why. It’s possible it had something to do with having to wait 3 hours for breakfast, walk 40 minutes to the car rental place hungry with our backpacks, and then have Nick get re-accustomed to driving a manual car.

As soon as we crossed the border the views were idealistic and quaint, exactly what we hoped the countryside of Slovenia would be. Each town was charming, with cute churches, rolling hillsides, and farms. I also counted 11 hawks sitting on farm fences within 1km of each other. When we arrived we walked straight to Sarrbing for lunch. Nick and I split dumplings, ramen, and a…

Friday, August 29th, 2025 World Tour Days: 301 Our night bus from Mostar to Zagreb, Croatia took about 8 hours and arrived at 6am. Unsurprisingly, we did not get much sleep on the bus. It’s funny because 99% of the Flixbuses we had been on have had chairs that recline, but for some reason this one did not. In fact, the last bus we took before this one my chair was broken so it was fully reclined the entire journey. After we arrived it was a short walk to our hotel which we had strategically booked near the bus station…
