here’s just a few ideas….
Reason one
Vibrant, Engaging & Unique are the first words that spring to mind, make no mistake, this city is growing in popularity…. Yes it has a little of so many of the cities we’ve visited across our European Roadtrip.. a little touch of Naples in the narrowness of the streets, similar to Bergen for the warmth of the people & an abundant history & location like Dubrovnik…
