- Back to the BalkansI'm back in the Balkans for the coming week, in Serbia to be precise. Serbia is new to me, but I've already been reminded of other Balkan countries I've been to. I'm teaching in a small city called Užice (pronounced oo-zhi-tse), Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Jul 1, 2021
- Flixbus to PragueBefore I had to leave to get my Flixbus to Prague I had time for a last walk in Berlin, so I decided to wander down to the park next to the Fernsehturm (TV Tower) and St Marienkirche and Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | May 23, 2020

- Arrival in BerlinI arrived in Berlin yesterday afternoon after a fantastic hotel breakfast and a completely uneventful 3.5-hour Flixbus journey from Rostock.

- Maritime flavour of RostockI came to Rostock this morning via a very smooth, uneventful hour and half on a Flixbus from Lübeck.

- Hercules and the LindwormMy first time with Airbnb today. I fly from Klagenfurt to Hamburg very early tomorrow morning, and I was thinking I'd have to spend the night at the main train station, as the airport isn't 24 hours and no hostels Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Nov 18, 2019
- The King of HungaryThere was a movie I once saw when I was about thirteen, I forget its name and I have not seen it since. The premise of this movie is that aliens have invaded Earth but because the aliens have adopted Posted by urbanreverie in Urban Reverie's Travels | Oct 28, 2019
- A taste of SloveniaThe end of a full day in Maribor, Slovenia.

- From east to west: Mödling to BregenzI'm writing this on the Flixbus from Munich to Bregenz, and I'm absolutely knackered! I'd deliberately chosen a hostel in Munich as close to the main bus station as possible, because of the heaviness of my big case, laptop bag Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Sep 16, 2019
- Last stay in Sofia; the Ladies' Market callsYesterday morning Dave said goodbye to Veliko Tarnovo as we caught the 10.30 bus to Sofia.

- Turkish Delight (Lokum)Edit from March 2019: Altan Şekerleme is still going and still appears to be very highly rated! Today, our last day in Istanbul and Turkey, there were three priorities; A) to revisit the Spice Market, B) to go to a specific Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Mar 19, 2019
- Back to EuropeEdit from March 2019: The restaurant we went to was called Ahırkapı Balıkçısı - it's still going! Definitely a place I recommend! Piya Hostel is still going too and I recommend that as well. Dave woke up not feeling well at Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Mar 19, 2019

- BuddhalandDambulla, Sri Lanka Friday, 15 February 2019 Before I left Kandy I decided to send a text message to Sisira, the tuk-tuk driver who rescued me after I got off the train at Katugastota because the platform at Mawilmada was too Posted by urbanreverie in Urban Reverie's Travels | Feb 16, 2019
- The sacred toothacheKandy, Sri Lanka Thursday, 14 February 2019 I started the day with another tiring, uncomfortable walk down the hill to Katugastota Bridge to catch a bus into town. The sub-arterial road the guest house is located on has some buses but Posted by urbanreverie in Urban Reverie's Travels | Feb 15, 2019
- Relaxation before our night bus to IstanbulWe arrived back from Sofia at lunchtime, so since we didn't have to be at the bus station until 20.00 for our night bus to Istanbul, that meant we had a nice long break to relax and get our stuff Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Feb 8, 2019
- Up into the hillsElla, Sri Lanka Thursday, 8 February 2019 I awoke shortly after six o'clock, well before I had set my alarm, having had eleven hours of deep sleep. I was not in a hurry so I took my sweet time eating a breakfast Posted by urbanreverie in Urban Reverie's Travels | Feb 8, 2019
- The dry-light zoneTissamaharama, Sri Lanka Tuesday, 5 February 2019 I awoke early at seven o'clock because I wanted to reach my next destination, Tissamaharama, by early afternoon so I would have plenty of time to organise a safari tour the next day. I ha Posted by urbanreverie in Urban Reverie's Travels | Feb 5, 2019
- The lotus positionColombo, Sri Lanka Saturday, 2 February 2019 The day began surprisingly with no evidence of a hangover. This is a good sign.

- Holding the FortColombo and Avissawella, Sri Lanka Thursday, 31 January 2019 I awoke at midday after a surprisingly short nine hours' sleep and almost instantly got dressed and started exploring.

- Arrival in MacedoniaOn the journey from Veliko Tarnovo to Sofia I was unlucky enough to miss all the sunflower fields by the side of the main road (I think I dozed off right at the wrong moments), but luckily I didn't miss Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Jan 30, 2019
- Money-changing in SofiaA short time in Sofia to change buses - a much smoother process than I was expecting. I'd heard that I might have to get my ticket to Skopje from Serdika bus station, rather than the central one; my only Posted by 3Traveller in Teaching and Travelling Abroad | Jan 30, 2019
- Further Plovdiv explorationsWell, we certainly fitted a lot into this morning and the first half of the afternoon!
