Up and down through Croatia

Deutsche Version auf www.cyclingfornepal.com

Yesterday a month ago I started in Munich. It doesn't seem so long ago, because the days on the bike go around really fast. I was hoping the time is ticking more slowly during my trip, but in things that you do like, the pointer rotates faster.

After a short break in Trieste / Italy, my route led through Slovenia for a day, then on the Croatian Coast to the border to Montenegro. The route along the coast had properly called grains. It went uphill every day at least for 1000 meters. Up - down, up - down. But at any time I had a wonderful sea view.

After a two-day break in the Paklenica National Park, I drove a stage within the country. No Tourism at all which was an interesting change.

Mostly at 5 p.m I kept an eye out for a suitable tent site. Previously, I always had the right nose and had sensational camp spots.

Shortly before the border to Montenegro, I could set up my tent at Markos place. I contacted him over warmshowers.org, a platform for cyclist, who fellow travelers give a place to sleep - for free. He lives in the mountains with a idyllic sea view. Situated on a plateau I could put up my tent. A Swiss couple has lived there for two months and building a hut. So who wants to lead a dropout-life is that an interesting place. At the point I'm not there yet :).

Still, I just enjoy the feeling of freedom: Not having much and to pitch up the tent at amazing places.

Now I am heading towards Albania.

Ride on.
