Is La Fortuna worth visiting in Costa Rica?

As I looked out over the rainforest canopy from the Mistico Hanging Bridges, I realised something:
La Fortuna isn’t just another tourist stop — it’s the real deal.

Before I headed to Costa Rica, I’d heard of Arenal Volcano, natural hot springs, and jungle zip-lining adventures…

But I wasn’t sure if La Fortuna was just another overhyped town — or something truly special.

La Fortuna is 100% worth visiting.

Is Tamarindo safe in Costa Rica?

“Don’t go out after dark”…. “Watch your stuff on the beach”… “It’s a party town—be careful.”

Before I ever stepped foot in Tamarindo, Costa Rica, I read all the forums, scanned the Facebook groups, and asked in travel subreddits. And over and over, I kept seeing the same question: Is Tamarindo safe?

Either way I was going to find out for myself!

So I headed over to the Pacific coast from the jungle town of La Fortuna.

Fun things to do in Montezuma Costa Rica.

After an awesome few days in Tamarindo, I couldn’t wait to see what Montezuma had to offer!

A completely different vibe, much quieter, much more peaceful,

and the perfect place to chill out!

However, there are many fun things to do in Montezuma, so your stay will be aligned with your travel style

This blog details the most popular activities in Montezuma, along with some scenic hiking recommendations, and quirky spots in the small town centre.

5 Days in Romania: The Perfect Itinerary for First-Time Visitors.

Bucharest might just be my favorite European city — right up there with Rome.

Its grand boulevards whisper of Paris, its communist-era monuments still loom large, and yet there’s a playful modern energy that’s all its own.

Grab a £2 beer in the Old Town and you’ll see what I mean.

Then there’s Transylvania — a place that belongs on every traveller’s bucket list….

Let’s see how 5 days works best in Romania!

Visiting Mostar in Bosnia & Herzegovina.

My first time in Mostar was only on a day trip… But what a pleasant surprise…

My favourite city in Europe, without a doubt!

If you are visiting Mostar soon, then you are in for an amazing experience!

I have written this blog to showcase the charming town in Bosnia & Herzegovina, as it is one of the Balkan’s hidden gems.

Croatia or Montenegro for your summer holiday?

The beaches in Montenegro are awesome…

However, there is something extra special about the Croatian coastline… Especially down south…

So Croatia wins!

If you can’t decide between Croatia or Montenegro for your summer trip then you have found the right travel blog.

Following my travels through both Balkans countries, I have compared their highlights, and also recommended which specific destinations you should add to your summer itinerary.
