Adrenline Check Eco Hostel- Soca River Valley - Slovenia

I wanted to go to Bovec to do outdoor water sports and found this place on hostelworld. Then I got on the bus and 4 hours later, was dropped off here!
Oh the drive was wonderful. We went up a huge mountain and then back down the other side. There was 50 switch backs. We stopped at the top for a half hour break and I met a nice girl that worked there. I told her she was so lucky, it was so beautiful, it was like heaven! I would love to go back there for hiking with a friend.

Then we went down the mountain and the driver dropped me off in the driveway of the camp. I stayed in a 10bed dorm room and I slept very well, even got afternoon naps after our busy activites!

They have all kinds of activities, but I chose hiking, river kayaking, canyoning and climbing. Each day was soo much fun! I loved climbing and river kayaking. I would like to do more when I get back home.

I met 2 travelers from Holland who are traveling in a tiny Fia 500. They participated in the same activites with me each day and we became good friends. Next they are going to Italy to get some car parts. While I will travel to Austria.

back to Zagreb

I headed back to Zagreb and it feels so nice. I became friends with the hostel employees at Hostel Nocturno, so it felt like visiting old friends or family.
I stayed for 2 nights and just relaxed.

I went to the Bulldog Cafe and had a coffee and updated my journal, then I sat for a while longer and ordered a beer! and stayed for another hour or so. It was so nice and relaxing and I got caught up in my journal.

Kristina (from the hostel) came with me to the train station and sat and chatted for a while before I got on my train to Ljubljana.

Last time I was at the hostel (a month ago!) we found a small sick kitten in the storage unit, the girls took him and brought him back to life and now he's their pet! His name is George and they had photos for me, that they took of him to show me!

So nice to be back amongst people I know for a few days.

Farewell Seattle

I'm leaving on Wednesday!

Wanted to see some friends before I went off by myself for a couple months, so..

I got together with a few friends for one last Capitol Hill bar crawl before I go. We got Thai food (YUM!), stopped in at Honey Hole for Mojitos

We stopped in at Barca for a few drinks!











and on Sunday a big group of friends met for a sushi dinner at my favorite sushi restaurant.

We stopped in at Sonya's for a drink, but the back bar wasn't open :(

It was kind of sad to say farewell for a few weeks.
