Split, Croatia
After a busy week in Vienna, Austria, I headed to Zagreb, Croatia. It was a good place to just relax for a bit. I found a nice local restaurant and just slowly sipped coffee while finishing Margaret’s Lawrence’s This Side Jordan. I had trouble reading it when I first arrived in Ghana, but I found it much more compelling after leaving the country because I could make better sense of the geography and the issues.
After a couple days in Zagreb, Michelle and I took the overnight train to Split, Croatia and were greeted with a beautiful sunrise. Split is an incredible convergence of water, sand, forest, and ancient ruins. It has a great vibe to it and though I’ve been here less than 24 hours, I already know it will be a highlight.
