I live in Croatia and I am retired geologist. Although I’m slowly entering the third age, I still enjoy life to the fullest. I hike, ride a bike, exercise regularly and love traveling. For as long as I can remember, exploring new destinations has been a joy, fulfillment and money well spent for me. Whether it's hiking remote mountain trails, immersing yourself in busy city streets, or relaxing on quiet beaches, every trip has its own appeal and opportunity for discovery. One of the most rewarding aspects of travel, in my opinion, is the opportunity to meet new people, places and cultures. These interactions have enriched and broadened my worldview in ways I could never have imagined. Whether it's tasting exotic foods, participating in traditional ceremonies, or simply observing daily life in a foreign country, I'm fascinated by the richness of cultural diversity. In today's world, I believe that fostering understanding and appreciation of different cultures is more important than ever.
