I have continued searching adventures around Zagreb in past weeks.
Sometimes adventures don't have be big and life changing experiences, but they are still things that make you happy and smile widely in the moment.. I will let the pictures to do most of the talking but still want to use some words to describe my past days. There will bunch of reasons to smile in the text.
I did a weekend trip to Slovenia and rented a car with my friends. Reason to smile number 1. The driving and the fact when you realize that you manage to drive in new environment and new traffic. (also singing in the car is very amusing.)
We arrived in Ljubljana on Friday evening and honestly, were quite lost. Reason to smile number 2 was right around the corner in the form of helpful stranger. I ask only an advice for parking and he ended up helping us with that and showed us the way to our hotel. Never couldn't do that so fast without him.
Reasons to smile number 3-4 are food and wine. There's nothing better than good portion of food and big glass of red wine when you are tired and hungry. Or in my case, HANGRY (=angry + hungry).
On the next day we did a small walk around the city and went to see Ljublajana castle. Beautiful, maybe little bit too much renovated building offered us a great view to the city. Reason to smile number 5 was found because of that view. It's weird how small you can feel yourself while watching a scene that looks like never ending.
Our trip continued to Maribor and when arriving there we found out that we had booked a hotel from different city. Well what can you do. We drive to hotel in Ptuj and were happily suprised. City of Ptuj is really small and quiet, but people are so friendly. Reason to smile number 6 is ex-tempore change of plans. In this case, it was definetely good solution.
On Sunday we were planning to return, but change of plans happened again. After a little search of the map, we decided to make one more stop before going back to Zagreb. This time it was town Varaždin located in north of Croatia. After one night, it was time to head back to Zagreb and work, reason to smile number 7 is home and already familiar people and customs.
I do like to smile and laugh a lot and smiles mentioned above are just highlights. I have been laughing and similing most of the time, but just wanted to point out the best encounters and events that made me happy. And smiling for little things, makes big ones even more precious.
Lots of happiness to your week!
