Visiting the Ruins of Pompeii, Italy Travel Guide Transcript:
While many travellers visit Pompeii on a day trip, we chose to base ourselves here for a few days. The main draw, of course, were the ruins of Pompeii, an ancient Roman city that was buried under ash and pumice when Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. We spent half a day walking through the world's largest excavation and archaeological site, and what follows it our mini travel guide.
Our first stop inside the complex was the Amphitheatre of Pompeii. Built around 70 BC, this is the oldest surviving Roman amphitheatre to have been built of stone; for comparison the Colosseum in Rome wouldn’t come into existence for another century. We toured the grounds and also checked out the music exhibit on site, because it turns out a lot of bands have played here over the years!
After visiting the amphitheatre which is on the very east end, we started making our way into the city. The streets were cobbled and all along there were rows of houses and villas, many of them with impressive frescoes that tell the tale of a wealthy city with lavish homes.
One of the reasons Pompeii is so well preserved is because it was buried quickly by volcanic ash and pumice, plus the lack of air and moisture also allowed for the buried artifacts to be extremely well preserved. Stepping into the homes is like stepping into the past; you can still see the elaborate mosaic floors and vibrant frescoes frozen in time.
Continuing our walk through Pompeii, we eventually reached the Forum. This square would have been the centre of life for locals with temples, municipal buildings, and markets. The statue of the centaur, half-man half-horse, is a focal point, as is the view of Mount Vesuvius looking down on the ruins.
To finish off our visit of Pompeii, we walked along the southern edge of the ruined city where we saw the casts of the victims of Vesuvius. When archaeological teams began excavating Pompeii, they noticed there were large voids in the compacted ash whenever they were digging around bones. By pouring plaster into the spaces, they were able to capture the final poses of the residents’ last moments in the city.
One of the best discoveries of our time in Pompeii was Pizzeria Alleria, we stumbled here soaking wet on our first night in the city and we just couldn’t stay away after that. Here’s what the fuss is all about.
After that, we ended up getting a second Margherita pizza - the first one was just too tasty! - and then we also ordered the Nutella cheesecake, which was just as decadent as it looks.
We started our do-it-yourself tour of modern Pompei at Piazza Bartolo Longo, a beautiful plaza lined with palm trees right in the heart of the city. Standing in the square, it’s impossible to miss the Shrine of the Virgin of the Rosary of Pompei, where once you step you are greeted with painted domes and golden ceilings. And then from there, we went to the top of the bell tower for a 360-degree views of the city.

10 Things to do in Kotor, Montenegro Travel Guide Video Transcript: (Котор)
Good morning friends. We have made it to Montenegro. We're in Kotor (Котор) right by the water we're staying in the Old Town. We've been here a few days and it has been raining non-stop just like it was in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Like the first half of the week it just poured but now it is nice. We can't wait to explore this city so join us as we make a little travel guide.
If there’s one thing that had caught our attention upon arriving in Kotor (Cattaro), it was the fortifications that not only encircle the old town but also run all the way up into the mountain, so a hike up to Kotor Fortress was the first stop on our itinerary.
As a tip, we would say the best time to hike up to Kotor Fortress is in the morning because the path is shaded. This isn’t a huge consideration if you’re visiting in winter like we did, but definitely something to keep in mind if you visit in the summer.
The Cathedral of St Tryphon was built in honor of the patron saint and protector of the city, on the very same spot where an older church had already stood long ago. We paid our admission and went in to visit the cathedral’s very own museum.
After walking along part of the city walls, we stopped by the Sea Gate, which is the third entrance into the Old Town. As soon as you walk through here you’re met with a clock tower and a big square that’s encircled by restaurants and lots of little lanes that break away - basically it’s a great place to wander.
And now we want to show you one more restaurant that we enjoyed in Kotor (Cattaro). This one was called Cesarica and they specialized in seafood.
Lastly, if you want to enjoy a little evening stroll, the Port of Kotor is a beautiful place. Not only can you enjoy the city all lit up at night, but if you happen to be there on a day when the cruise ship pulls into town, it’s worth sticking around to watch it manoeuvre its way.
And that concludes our visit to Kotor (Котор). We hope you guys enjoyed following along and we’ll see you in the next video where we visit the neighbouring coastal town of Budva.

Slovenian Food Review - Trying traditional Slovenian dishes in Ljubljana, Slovenia
Come join us for a Slovenian Food Review as eat a delicious meal in Ljubljana, Slovenia at Allegria restaurant trying several different traditional Slovenian dishes including wine, mains and dessert. As like the Bosnian cuisine we tried at Sarajevo 84 this was our very first time to try Slovenian cuisine and we were excited and eager to dig right in. The following list is the food items we tried at the restaurant including the local names from the menu:
1) Slovenian carniolan sausage (kranjska klobasa) with sauerkraut cabbage mashed rooty potatoes
2) Slovenian stuffed pasta (Idrijski žlikrofi) with a lamb ragout (similar to goulash)
3) Slovenian dessert (prekmurska gibanica) a puffed pastry from Prekmurje made with eight different layers including raisins, apples, walnuts, seeds, poppy seeds and cottage cheese
4) Slovenian red wine (Refošk red dry - Vina Koper)

Slovenian Food Review - Trying traditional Slovenian dishes in Ljubljana, Slovenia Travel Video Transcript:
Well hello hello and welcome to another food video. Today we're having lunch here in Ljubljana so we figured we need to show you what Slovenian food is all about. Now I've never had Slovenian food before ever because I don't think it is really popular outside of Europe but um Sam brought us to Allegria. He spotted this place yesterday so we are here. We've ordered our wine. We've got our basket of bread so let's get to it.
Sam and I both got the same red wine. And what is the biggest surprise with this? Yes, the local red. Biggest surprise is now that we've had two restaurant meals here in Ljubljana is that they typically serve the red wine chilled.
The food arrived pretty quickly so let me show you my dish first. I ordered the grilled Slovenian sausage (kranjska klobasa) with sauerkraut or cabbage and this kind of like purple-y potato so let's just dig right in. Look it is like a double sausage actually. It looks big. Let's divide it. Big and juicy.
It is a really nice way to be starting our Slovenian cuisine experience. Yeah, and now we're moving on to what Sam ordered.
Sam is going in for the Idrijski žlikrofi I believe it is called.
Yes. We could totally be butchering it. And inside is basically pork, herbs and onions.
And it comes with a lamb ragout. It looks so good. I'm making sure to get a bit of lamb.
This is just so good. Such hearty food. Yeah? Again not spicy at all though. It is just like kind of that comfort savory food. And I really like the pasta. It is actually quite densely stuffed.
Well dessert has arrived. It sure has. Here before us we have a traditional Slovenian dessert (prekmurska gibanica) whose name I cannot pronounce. But I can tell you the ingredients. It is basically kind of like a puffed pastry like with lots of little crispy layers and inside it has apples, cottage cheese, walnuts and sometimes it can have raisins. It also has poppyseed and it has all been dusted with a little bit of icing sugar.
Another very filling meal here in Ljubljana, Slovenia. I have to say.. And in terms of price point that came to 28 Euros so that included two glasses of red wine, two mains and a dessert to share. It is packed outside and it is packed inside so it is a great restaurant. I'd highly recommend coming here in Ljubljana.

Coral Island, the closest paradise to Phuket
Le spiagge di Phuket sono belle, ma non memorabili. Patong, Charon, Kata, Chalong sono sempre meglio di Sottomarina, molto meglio, ma per vedere quei posti da sogno che vi hanno spinto a venire in Thailandia (sempre che ci siate venuti per il mare e per le spiagge...) dovete andare nelle isole. Phi Phi Island, Kao Phing Kan (meglio nota come James Bond Island) o Similan Island regalano scenari mozzafiato, ma sono distanti.
Nella collana di isole, isolotti, scogli e atolli più o meno grandi che circondano Phuket la gita più appagante nel rapporto tra la bellezze dei luoghi e la distanza da percorrere per raggiungerli è quella a Koral Island.
Da Rawai Beach, nella parte sud occidentale della penisola, un litorale di ristorantini sul mare con decine e decine di barche alla fonda, si prende una classica long tail boat e in una ventina di minuti, per 1800 bath trattabili, si arriva a destinazione.
Vi ritroverete nella tipica spiaggia tropicale, con la sabbia bianca, le palme e le mangrovie, dalle quali sbucano scimmie e tucani, scogli di pietra lavica, un mare trasparente, paradiso di chi fa snorkelling. Sul bagnasciuga si cammina su un tappeto di coralli, d'altronde, il nome parla chiaro.
Difetti? Alle volte è un po' affollata, soprattutto quando arrivano le gite dei cinesi, che sbarcano in massa riempiendo i pontili per delle mezzore. Sono talmente tanti che alle volte sembra di essere a...Prato. Altre cose? Attenti alle scottature e alle insolazioni perché la sabbia bianca riflette come uno specchio e rosolarsi come un crostaceo sulla griglia è un attimo. Meglio stare all'ombra di una mangrovia o prendersi un lettino con riparo. Tanto per quello che costa. Sotto le palme, in prossimità del baretto dell'isola, tra le comitive di turisti italiani (ogni tanto se ne trovano tra russi e cinesi), troverete un tizio che si chiama Anan. Lo riconoscerete subito perché sembra un pirata uscito da un romanzo di Salgari. Anan, ma tutti lo chiamano Antonio. Lavora per Franco Rosso da vent'anni e parla un perfetto italiano. Vi racconterà un sacco di cose interessanti sull'isola e i dintorni. Per esempio, lo sapevate che tutte le isole a Sud di Phuket hanno nomi malesi? Esatto. E la stessa Phuket è una parola malese, che significa “montagna”.
The beaches of Phuket are beautiful, but not memorable. Patong, Charon, Kata, Chalong are always better than Sottomarina, much better, but to see those dream places that have pushed you to come to Thailand (if you have come to the sea and to the beaches ...) you have to go in the islands. Phi Phi Island, Kao Phing Kan (better known as James Bond Island) or Similan Island give breathtaking scenery, but are distant.
In the necklace of islands, islets, rocks and more or less large atolls surrounding Phuket the most rewarding excursion in the relationship between the beauty of the sites and the distance to reach them is that at Koral Island.
From Rawai Beach, in the southwestern part of the peninsula, a seaside beachfront restaurant with tens and dozens of bottomed boats, takes a classic long tail boat and in about twenty minutes, for 1800 baths treatable, you arrive at your destination.
You will find yourself in the typical tropical beach, with white sand, palm trees and mangroves, from which monkeys and tucsons come up, lava rock cliffs, a transparent sea, snorkelling paradise. On the walnut you walk on a coral carpet, however, the name speaks clearly.
Defects? Sometimes it is a bit crowded, especially when the trips of the Chinese arrive, landing in bulk filling the half-pole jets. They are so many that sometimes it seems to be ... Meadow. Other things? Beware of sunburn and insolation because the white sand reflects like a mirror and rushes like a crustacean on the grill is a moment. Better to stay in the shade of a mangrove or take a sheltered cot. So much for what it costs. Underneath the palm trees, close to the island's barracks, among the Italian tourists' groups (sometimes found between Russians and Chinese), you will find a guy called Anan. You will recognize it immediately because it looks like a pirate emerged from a Salgari novel. Annan, but everyone calls him Antonio. He has been working for Franco Rosso for twenty years and speaks a perfect Italian. It will tell you a lot of interesting things on the island and its surroundings. For example, did you know that all the islands in the South of Phuket have Malay names? Exact. And Phuket itself is a Malay word, meaning mountain.
