Countries without travel restrictions during Covid-19 pandemics

Trips & Tricks

Sick and tired of quarantine?  Well, who isn’t? We have been more or less stuck at our homes since March 2020. Can you imagine how this must feel to a travel addict like me? *desperate sigh and nose wipe* If you are anything like me, you are already making travel plans for 2021 and counting the days when we’ll be free to travel again. However, did you know that a few countries are already completely open for tourism?

Počitnice na Maldivih – nasveti za brezskrben dopust

Potovanja Slovenski kotiček

“Kako spet Maldivi, a nisi tam že bila?” in “Pa kaj vidiš na teh Maldivih, a ni tam en sam dolgčas?” sta tipična komentarja prijateljev, ko izvejo, da grem “spet” tja. Ko kasneje na družbenih omrežjih objavim kakšno fotografijo, se plošča hitro obrne: “Packa, ti na plaži, pri nas pa kidamo!” in “Jaz bi šla tudi! Koliko stane en teden na Maldivih?”. Okusi so seveda različni in tudi žepi niso vedno dovolj globoki, da bi si lahko privoščili pobeg v ta raj sredi Indijskega oceana. Za tiste, ki vas zanimajo počitnice na Maldivih (mimogrede, zaradi podnebnih sprememb naj bi bila večina otokov pod vodo do leta 2100), sem pripravila nekaj nasvetov in odgovorov na najpogostejša vprašanja. Na koncu članka so […]

Planning a safari trip is quite a challenge itself; in fact, you need to ask yourself a lot of questions even before you start planning your itinerary. Which country is best for safari, should I do it alone or with an agency, how many days do I need, will I see all the animals, is safari dangerous and similar questions that probably brought you to my blog.

Resort review: Vuyani Safari Lodge (Hoedspruit, South Africa)

Africa Hotel reviews South Africa

After the decision about safari in South Africa has finally been made, I started harassing different lodges near Kruger National Park with my ultimate question: “Will I see the lions?” While some owners didn’t even bother to respond, the majority of others told me that they couldn’t guarantee lion encounter. The manager from Vuyani Safari Lodge was a bit more specific: “I can’t guarantee you will see lions; however, our guests are usually very lucky.” I already had my eyes on this property due to their good Tripadvisor rating and great sense of humor on their web page and social media accounts. Having discussed the details with Bernard was the ultimate deal breaker, so I booked 5 days in Vuyani […]

About me Trips & Tricks

When it comes to New Year’s resolutions, most of people aim to lose weight, quit smoking, do more exercise … or something else, mostly health-related.
