I like the only photo that has an explanation! A necessary explanation...
:D
This is our first holiday together ever. We have holidays each year, but this is the first one where we have travelled outside of Finland and Smallsteps' first flight. She is pretty impressed - hopefully she doesn't think this is now the new normal :)
I decided to give up diversity and go to the same place every year. I know what to expect, I know what to avoid, I know what's good.
I think there are many who do that now - or know what they are getting into. This is our first time doing anything like this, as normally we just book a room in a city and explore. It is different with a child though for now at least.
Nothing has been that unpleasant, just a little bad tasting at times. Overall though, I would highly recommend Croatia as a destination to explore. Bring shorts and enough shirts to sweat through though :)
Being the first holiday outside of Finland, it's understandable what happened. There are always differences between what you see on the website and in the promotion of the resort or town. Expectations are one way and what we find in reality differs here and there. I know Croatia is a beautiful country with a great coastline. I have not been and I don't think I will have the opportunity to go. For me, Greece was the maximum of beauty...
For you, it was your first holiday in the South. There will be, for sure, many more and you will definitely not do like me. You will choose to explore new places, which is normal for young people.
The charm of the Mediterranean area will definitely catch you in its trap.
