My mom was planning to visit Croatia in 2020, but had to cancel her trip due to covid pandemic. This country is always a mystery to me with knowing not so much of her people, history, language, religion, ,..nice to have a glimpse of this beautiful country from your videos😃
This is what travel is all about, to find all these in the road less travelled areas, just the best feeling. And minute 10:17 is soooo classic, happened to us too, a lot, haha.
@@陳樹溪 I'm half Italian and can tell you that truffles are quite expensive there. Also, they offer those special clams cooked in white wine, that are super expensive. So, yeah, no, food is not cheap if you're going for the best.
Beautiful, beautiful city. And Croatia is such a beautiful country. And the food is WOW. Stjepan Hauser of 2Cellos hails from Pula, by the way. Enjoy your time there!
There where 3 amphitheaters in Croatia. One in Salona (modern day Solin), one in Iadera/Idassa (modern day Zadar) and one in Pula. Only the Pulan one still exists
@@shinglemcdingle4093 There is one more Burnum. It is small one but history fan will love it. It is located in Krka national park. It was military amphitheatre for legionnaires.
Wow! Croatia looks beautiful. It so true what you say about looking for more beautiful and intricate places when you are filming and making videos 😄 We like that you guys are exploring lesser known places we love doing that as well!
Just new to your channel but am absolutely loving your vlogs. Croatia looks fantastic and I'd love to visit at some point. Can't wait to see your new adventures xx
Good evening. As a born citizen of Pula its simpatic to see some video made about my town. I hope you had a great time and that you will come back someday. Greetings from Pula
Keep in mind that there is just one Colosseum and this is one in Rome. With the time has got that name. In the past useg to be calld Arena too. Arena means sand in Latin. Nowdays we are saying Colosseum because it used to be a colossal staute of the Emperor Nero in the front of the Amphitheatre. This one in Pula and in Verona are called Arena. This one in Pula was built by Emperor Tiberius born as Titus.
You need to go to Zadar. You would love it. The sea organ is so cool. Also so much history, I never expected to see. Some things were from BC. Your video today was fun. Love to see you enjoy yourselves, without large cowds.
Yes. If you into history then there is a lot of variation in influence, from roman, to venetian and habsburg rule later. But to visit croatia properly, you need like 2-3 months travel because you can stay one day only in specific city but thats not the full experience. Croatia as a whole is fascinating mix. Borders of borders, east west, mediterean, cooler climate, even the coastline cities even if they may seem alike they are specific in their own way due to historical paths.
Pula is my hometown, I was born there. It's pity you didn't visit the 19 century-old center of Pula, which was built by the Austrians when Pula was the main harbor of the Austro-Hungarian fleet. There are some fine examples of Austrian architecture in Pula that give Pula a real "Little Vienna" touch. There is also a medieval Venetian Castle called Kaštel in the old town of Pula, not far away from the Forum you have visited (5 minutes by walking)., with a spectacular view. Other parts of town are mainly new, built after WW2, and not so attractive to tourists (with exception of swimming, fun, and recreation activities). However, there are Brijuni (Brioni) Islands near Pula (actually, near Fažana, 8 km away from the center of Pula). It is a National Park. The archipelago used to be a hub for the European elite before WW2 and later the summer residence of ex-YU president Tito. The main island is filled with monuments (the remains of the Roman Villa Rustica Verige, Byzantine Castrum, etc., as well as wonderful Mediterranean nature). If you're still in Istria, don't miss the medieval town of Motovun, located on the top of the hill and surrounded by medieval (Venetian) walls, as well as Poreč with its UNESCO site Byzantine Basilica of Euphrasius (6th century AD) with fabulous golden mosaics. But you can visit all of that some other time. Enjoy your trip.
I told you, Pula is beautiful .... You walk in a T-shirt, good weather. Belgium / the Netherlands .... at night it freezes, during the day 3 degrees and snow. Ps, Turkey is very dangerous with covid at the moment. Thanks for sharing again. And see you next time. Stay safe and have fun.
Weather is crazy right now... Yes, Turkey is not doing great. We were hoping the situation would turn sooner rather than later, but doesn't look like it. We still have a bit of a way to go before we would reach Turkey, so keeping our fingers crossed.
In the summertime (well, at least before the pandemic hit), there's a thing called "cinema under the stars" and they basically turn the Arena into a cinema! HUGE screen at the entrance, and you can just bring a blanket and some snacks and make yourself comfortable on the grass up there and watch a movie under the moonlight! We've watched Ice Age there, Harry Potter, the Minions... It's THE experience! I can't wait to go again when the pandemic is over...
That sounds amazing! And in such a beautiful setting it must be unforgettable. Hope you get to do that again soon when things are more normal again 🤗🤗 thanks for watching!
@@profeprofe4483 I am, but because of that I haven't been to or seen any hostels... Sorry I'm no help. 😅 You should book it rather soon tho, things are usually booked way ahead (at least when there is no p4ndemic 😅)
@@profeprofe4483 Find the "Titov Park", it's very near the Arena (Amphitheatre). Many people like to go there, sit on the grass or next to the monument and chill 😊 also if you're into rock music, check out the "Rock Caffe", it's also very near the Arena. (It's not the classic "Hard Rock Caffe") it used to be my fav place to hang out before I moved to Zagreb for uni. 😄 If you can, make sure to visit Medulin aswell! It's a 15 min drive (20ish with the bus) from Pula, there's tons of beach bars and a beautiful promenade and an amusement park aswell. If you don't have a car and don't wanna go with the buses around, take a taxi. But Uber isn't that much used there, make sure to look up "Taxi Cammeo".
Croatia looks beautiful. I really didn't know what to expect but I like it. Regarding the vaccines I'm getting my first shot on April 12, 2021. I'm 68 so even though I've been eligible for a while they just didn't have appointments available. I hope people get vaccinated so the world can be more opened. Love watching your videos. Traveling to Turkey looks like great fun.
Croatia is great, don't leave it too soon, besides the amazing cities at the sea they have also amazingly beautiful national parks like Nationaal park Plitvicemeren. 👍
If you like walking near the sea, there is a beautiful promenade in the city of Rovinj (Roviny). Also, there is a promenade in the city of Vrsar that is a bit longer.
We're foreigners in our late 30s (from Canada) living in Romania and we've been vaccinated for 3 months already. Romania is vaccinating everyone - tourists and foreigners included!
Really? We looked into getting vaccinated at Bran castle and it was not allowed for tourists then. But good that they are offering it 💪 we have been vaccinated in Bulgaria in the meantime!!! So happy about that 😍
@@NaickKim That must have been right before they opened up the vaccinations to everyone. We live about 15 minutes from the Bran castle 😊 Glad you got the vaccine in Bulgaria instead. Enjoy your travels! I'm loving your Turkey videos!
Went to Pula about 15 years ago in the summer. It was packed with tourists. You have the whole city to yourself. When we were there there was a couple getting their wedding photos taken in the amphitheatre. Went swimming in the crystal clear water. Exquisite. Here in Israel all the family has been vaccinated including my 18 year old son. I heard that they're planning on vaccinating 12-15 year olds soon now that the vaccine has been tested on younger people too.
@@plonkerification I know you're being facetious, but pregnant woman in Israel are being vaccinated too, because they have been catching the virus, as with the foetuses. The new born babies get over the virus, but some don't get the chance to be born because the mother, who hasn't been vaccinated, dies of the virus.
Jealous you got to see the Med!!! It’s been the North Sea for us for the last 2 years 😂What a gorgeous city, old towns of cities are always the best bit. Croatia is definitely on our travel list. Sending greeting from Wales.
Most Westerners don't even know much about their own country. I have lived in Germany for 40 years. Here nearby there is an important "Oppidum" of the Celts. Most of the inhabitants here have never visited it. Europeans come from different countries to experience history here.
Im from Croatia..and i live about 20km away from Pula..and everything you said about Istria and Croatia is absolutley correct..Croatia has the most rugged coastline in Europe with around 1240 islands and ridges..thank you very much for your nice thoughts and words about my home..hopefully youre going to visit other parts of Istria,they maybe dont have Roman buildings,but beaches and sea water is far more clear and pure then in Pula..i can give you some tips too..Poreč,Rovinj,Rabac (my favourite place in Istria),Umag,Novigrad and much more smaller towns and places..greetings from Istria!
Thanks a lot for all the tips. We did also go to Rovinj and absolutely loved it there. Such a beautiful town. We'll put the other ones on our list for when we are in Istria next time.
That water looks like how I remember the water in the Greek islands in the 70's - breathtaking! I love ancient history so the Roman buildings are a big plus, too. I hope you can get your vaccinations soon; in central/southern California, anyone over 16 can now be vaccinated. (Each county is at a different stage, probably depending on their population, but we expect everyone to be vaccinated by June 1.)
My home is just to the right of the city hall you filmed in the forum (the square)!! I wish i saw this sooner, I could have shown you some hidden secrets of pula! ;)
I'm stoked as to how happy my hometown has made you! :-) The "old building made of stone" is the seat of Pula/Pola's mayor, the Communal Palace, and it was built in 1296. You'll also notice that the city's official name is Pula/Pola, Pola being its Italian name. Officially, the city is bilingual just as whole of Istria is. It used to be Austria-Hungary's main war port and it had a tram between 1904 and 1934. The place you soaked your feet at towards the end of the video is called Saccorgiana and it used to be a ramp to unload tanks and motorized infantry units from military ships when the city was part of the Kingdom of Italy between 1919 and 1947. Also, you should've gone to have a look at the network of underground tunnels called Zerostrasse built by Austria-Hungary for faster infantry movement in case of an air raid or invasion. When Naick said he was hungry I thought you would've gone for a pizza in Jupiter, one of the best pizzerias in town, super close to the city walls you visited. Anyhow - love your videos and your channel! Keep up the good work and looking forward to checking out your next adventure! :-)
@@NaickKim You're welcome! I'm sure Pula/Pola would only become richer with folks like you two moving there! :-) In recent years, it's become a popular place among digital nomads, for instance. It is a nice place to live. The County of Istria and Zagreb are statistically the wealthiest parts of the country, and Pula/Pola interestingly was the only city in Croatia had a population increase in the last three years! Also, in terms of tourism, Istria is the most visited tourist destination in whole of Croatia (before Dubrovnik, Split and all of Dalmatia!). Unfortunately, business took me to Switzerland but my family and closest friends still live in Pula/Pola so I go back quite often. Would you be heading back, feel free to drop me a message for some local tips & tricks which I'd be more than happy to share :-)
Thanks Marin! We'll let you know when we head back, to get some insider tips. Funny, we actually had the idea of moving to Switzerland and had a job lined-up etc. But in the end it didn't work out and we had to cancel the plans.
Another great video guy’s. We went to split a couple of years ago and it was amazing and very hot! The vaccine is going great hear in the UK all my family have had 1st jab and my parents who are elderly have had both jabs. The government have only just started to ease lockdown and it’s been really hard but hopefully we can get back to travelling in out motorhome soon. Love from south of UK. X
Thanks Ian ;) Split is definitely on the list. Happy to hear UK is doing good. I read somewhere that a UK cruise is starting again very soon. I'd prefer the Caribbean, but we'll take a rainy cruise in the UK too!
Hi guys, I see all your videos from my TV and never coment, but I just want to thank you for keep going with your content, is very inspiring for me, you inspire me to keep going with my little channel, some times is not that easy, I am loving this new serie, very unespected and places where not many people go, regards from a Latina leaving in Belgium, a big fan of you.
I was born in Pula and still live there and you missed quite a few spots, i was surprised you didnt film on top of the kaštel and the second roman amphiteathre.
I'm so glad you have seen the Mediterranean water! If you'd gone to Spain, as I suggested, you'd be heading to finnesterre in some way. You went Marco Polo. You might skip Greece, but I've thought that the food I've seen in travel videos made Greek food look especially well done. I go to a couple Turkish tapa places in Washington and have enjoyed the Turkish company. I've know a bartender from Bulgaria whose modest love of where he's from makes me want to go there. There are two lilac bushes in my neighborhood just beginning to bloom. They smell like lilacs! My Bulgarian friend has mentioned the smell of roses. I didn't know about Pula's amphitheater. In 1949 my parent went on a delayed honeymoon to Rome and I have a photo of them by the Colosseum. (Thank goodness for spellcheck. I think colosseum must be easier to spell in Spanish.) My mother threw out her passport and my father and a hotel employee had to go through the trash to find it. I bet trash was simpler back then. And there you guys were next to a modest little Roman temple (I've met people in bars like that) and an arena that fit 20,000 Roman citizens. Who's you're favorite rock star? A pretty good venue even today. I'm not a croissant guy. I prefer dough with eggs. Not too much sugar. I'd prefer a yeast dough around my cheese. But I know I'd love the foods you've tried in that vein in Croatia. The french fries with the veal in the pretty town near Zagreb in the spring looked like the best ever. The sea was so clear. I knew another bartender whose father ran a hotel on a Croatian island. It surely wasn't idyllic but could sound that way. Your van is an idyll. I noticed you sometimes demur and call it a car. I heard tonight that van travel has become a thing. You're doing the thing well. You're becoming more skilled. I started watching you in Mexico. Another America, yet America. El mismo, pero diferente. Then I fell into Taiwan, as you did. The other videos I need to catch up on. Pula has the Roman ruins I've read about in Merida, Spain, plus a way out. To Turkey! With the sadness going on in Syria, which makes Covid like a side event except for those who suffer from it, as well as the troubles in Armenia and Azerbaijan and eastern Ukraine, I bet you won't go to China. The situation of the Uighurs is troubling. Turkey is bold enough! Good luck. And good luck getting back to Belgium for a vaccination. I should get one soon. If the EU has had problems re Covid, it will learn. Happy Easter week! We can only know so many people. Love fewer. But remember that in the vastness of God's creation you were created as individuals whom you let us see and I think you spread joy. God's eye is on the sparrow. How much more us? You're a lively website! Thanks.
Oh yes it definitely feels good to be back in the Mediterranean. Spain was our first choice, but it's really hard to travel there now with a lot of restrictions and lockdowns. We really love visiting these historic places. Over 2000 years of history there, hard to fathom. Kim isn't really into rock music, but for me, I really like Guns 'n Roses. More modern day, I'd say the black keys. So far really enjoying life in our van. We're also eager to travel to more exotic places again like China, Mexico, or wherever we can go really. Happy to be healthy and to be traveling.
The amphitheather is still very much used, we have Pulski Filmski Festival there. It'a movie festival and it premiers croatian movies. Fun fact Mussolini wanted to excavate the amphitheather and bring it to Italy, but of course it was impossible😂
I am surprised to see this arena in Croatia. Never knew it has such Roman influence. Can’t quite remember how the arena was like when I visited the one in Rome, but this one in Pula, Croatia, sure is impressed👍 wish to visit this country one day😃 thank you for sharing 😊
As a matter of fact the whole territory of nowadays Croatia was ruled by the Roman Empire for centuries! So there’s huge number of Roman era remains and archaeological sites. Arena in Pula, as far as I remember is the second most preserved one in the whole world after Colosseum in Rome and also one of the few largest ones.In addition, in Croatian second largest city of Split there are impressive and huge remains of the largest Roman palace buildt by the Roman emperor Diocletian in 4th century AD that are absolutely worth visiting! In the nearby Solin there are also many remains of the Roman times as same as in the Zadar and some other cities. Remains from this time can be seen even in the continental Croatia. Many of these are valuable examples of the UNESCO protected heritage sites of the world! Greetings from Croatia!
Istria, region where Pula/Pola is placed, had been roman, venetian and italian for 2000 years. Only in 1947 it became Yugoslavian and in 1991 Croatian.
@@Caleidus That is pure manipulation that has the nationalist and expansionist agenda to claim exclusive Italian right at the territory of the all Istria! Modern Italy has as much common with the Romans as any other Mediterranean country regardless of it's central territorial position in ancient Roman empire! People in Italy and all other Mediterranean countries are nothing but complex mixture of Romans and many other tribes that came here throughout middle ages! So no one holds exclusive rights on Roman heritage no matter how hard many Italians hold that to be true! Furthermore, Istrian peninsula has very long history of inhabitance of Croats, Slovenians and Italians ones next to each others that is centuries long!
@@fapmashina1 Ehhehe. If Rome was in Croatia you would be more than happy to claim her heritage as exclusively yours. You should not manipulate history. Istria was venetian (another Italian city) till 1797 and was culturally Italian till 1947. Slavs lived inland and did not give any contribution (as in Dalmatia) in terms of civilization to the region. Istria became an Italian region of the Roman Empire in 200BC "Venetia et Histria", then it became Venetian and always Italian till 1947. More than 2000 years of continuous latin/venetian/italian identity and you call it Croatia? Beyond ridiculous........
Pula is known for its Colosseum (but some tourists don't know about it). As a Croatian I like Pula much more than Split and Dubrovnik (Dubrovnik is really expensive). The amphitheatre is also used for concerts because it has special acoustics😁
Mmhh... You live in Europe and dont know anything about Croatia? Really? I am wondering. But ok, i am very interested in other Countrys and like to watch doctumentarys about them. When you think Pula is pretty then go to south croatia. Zadar and Split.. Dubrovnik an the Croatian Islands.
I live in Cozumel, Mexico and only some of the 60+ seniors have had their shots. I was lucky to get my 2nd vaccine on April 5th. Haven't left the island in 2 years and am looking forward to travelling again soon. My sister in Toronto, Canada just posted that the province of Ontario has gone into another lockdown for 28 days. :(
Thank you for this nice video. I am also an citizen of Pula and I never ever would like to move away from here. But, there is also a downside in your video. As you are travelling as campers, please be advised that wild camping in Croatia is not allowed and you should register your stay at camping sites or at least check with the local municipalities where and under which circumstances your stay is legal. I am sure that you have not littered around, but sometimes it is a mess, some campers leave on spots they left after a night, one nationality is outstanding in this discipline without to mention it now (it is not Belguim for sure). Just a small advice, other than that enjoy Croatia, enjoy also the other spots along the coast!!!! Stay safe and bring more of your videos!! :)
Hi Naick & Kim, I started watching your videos from the trips of Romania, long before you came to Taiwan. I am really happy to see you continue your journey. I has been to Turkey three times. It's a very fascinating country, and vast territory. The following is a list of attractions that I think are great. First, Istanbul. In addition to the must-visit Hagia Sophia, Blue mosque, I think Topkapi Palace is very beautiful, where you can experience the glorious history of the Ottoman Empire. I also highly recommend the Suleymaniye Mosque. You can enjoy the view of the Golden Horn(Haliç) from the rooftop cafe next to it. The view of Pierre Loti Cafe behind The Eyüp Sultan Mosque is also amazing. The streets and alleys of Istanbul are full of exotic colors, I love Istanbul so much. Second, I also recommend you to go to the areas along the Aegean Sea. For example, Ephesus in Izmir (the huge ancient Greek ruins) , and the nearby Greek small town Sirince. Don't miss the snow-white Pamukkale. Remember to bring your swimwears, because there is a hot spring pool above Pamukkale, and the beautiful Hierapolis ancient city just ocated at the top. If you have plenty of time, you might as well visit Eastern Turkey. Martin, the honey-colored border town. Gaziantep, the hometown of pistachios. Şanlıurfa, the Holy city in Islam. There are too many fun places, even if you have three months, you can't finish it. Just pick the places you are interested in and enjoy it. If later on your way back to Belgium, you have the opportunity to cross the Transfăgărășan Road in Romania, it would be perfect. Bon Voyage.
16 plus already? Wow! Have to admit we are slightly envious. All that planning around, requiring testing, etc has been eating at our energy level lately.
You keep repeating Dubrovnik and Split most visited while true is that in top 6 cities visited in Croatia 4 of them are in Istria region where Pula is located. One village ( Medulin ) next to Pula have same number of visitors as Split. 1. Dubrovnik - 4,4 milijuna 2. Rovinj - 4,0 milijuna 3. Poreč - 3,5 milijuna 4. Split - 2,8 milijuna 5. Medulin 2,8 milijuna 6. Umag - 2,7 milijuna noćenja
So glad you made it to the coast. I remember the beautiful water of the Adriatic even from when I was a college student on my trip there. The US vaccination rate started slowly but is really gaining steam. I live on the Atlantic Coast in Virginia and people 20 and above with no health problems are now registering, though it may be a couple of weeks before they actually get their first vaccine. Hopefully those of us countries that have had a large rollout will soon have an excess that we can share with others around the world.
Hmm wonder what is it that is not expected? 🤔 Edit: Heyyyy 😁👋🏼 In Singapore currently senior citizens and essential workers first now. Then middle aged and then younger adults etc.
I come from Croatia and idk what people do expect when they come. Of course there's history, we do live in Europe. It also annoys me how people only talk about the coast, like haloooooo there's also the mainland and it's just as beautiful as the coast
If you make it back to Pula, hit me up. I'll give you a tour of Pula and tell you the history and legends. Did you see the Punishment of Dirca mosaic? There are only three complete representations of it left, and we have one here in Pula.
It is not true Pula is less visited. Split is visited more because game of thrones, after split there is istria, second most visited region in croatia. Its pandemic now so you wont see much people, but before covid, istra brings most of the tourism income to the state.
there are so many good spots other then Dubrovnik and Split. Like all the rest are better, but depending on what you're going for, not to offend our fellow regions. But if you want chill, calm'er pristine spots, just go to our islands. Hvar etc
I've got an idea (never said it was a good idea...just an idea). Naick and Kim...Come to NYC to get your vaccine as you are now eligible and then go back to Croatia and onwards. That Mediterranean sun is doing you good. Beautiful there. Since Romans ruled that area.. that explains all those Roman ruins.. fascinating. I'm working remotely and get these Naick and Kim notifications and tell myself..don't do it! DON'T DO IT! But I have to see where you are next...
@@NaickKim Hi guys. I'm being silly, of course. My humor...it ain't universal. 😆 Looking forward to you in Turkey because it's one of my personal favorites (along with Egypt...sweet Egyptians). Question..at your leisure...ever been to Morocco? Keep safe. Kim is so talented with the drone and photography and timing in the edits btw. 🍺 🍻
Thank you for watching - is this what YOU expected Croatia to look like? 😊🇭🇷
My mom was planning to visit Croatia in 2020, but had to cancel her trip due to covid pandemic. This country is always a mystery to me with knowing not so much of her people, history, language, religion, ,..nice to have a glimpse of this beautiful country from your videos😃
Yes, indeed. It used to be a part of Italy. I know because I'm half Italian.
This is what travel is all about, to find all these in the road less travelled areas, just the best feeling. And minute 10:17 is soooo classic, happened to us too, a lot, haha.
Sure.
I miss the sea shore and the local food also.
Especially the low cost，haha !
@@陳樹溪 I'm half Italian and can tell you that truffles are quite expensive there. Also, they offer those special clams cooked in white wine, that are super expensive. So, yeah, no, food is not cheap if you're going for the best.
Croatia is more than what I expected! Scenery, food, and now historic sites! Wow! Thanks for bringing us there!
Our pleasure Honda!
Beautiful, beautiful city. And Croatia is such a beautiful country. And the food is WOW. Stjepan Hauser of 2Cellos hails from Pula, by the way. Enjoy your time there!
Couldn't agree more! Didn't know he was from there. Love their music.
I traveled in Croatia about 3 weeks in 2013.
It's a beautiful country with nice people.
I'm sure you will enjoy your trip there.
Fully agree on that ;)
So far, we're reallt enjoying it here.
@@NaickKim 🥰
Thank you...Pula is the best!
We agree! Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤
Thank you for being enthusiastic about Croatia and especially the beautiful Istria. Greetings from Žminj
Thank you very much!
That amphitheater!? 😱 Would never expect to see that in Croatia! Amazing.
@Darko Ulmer that's so interesting :) we don't know much about Croatia. Thank you! :)
There where 3 amphitheaters in Croatia. One in Salona (modern day Solin), one in Iadera/Idassa (modern day Zadar) and one in Pula. Only the Pulan one still exists
@@shinglemcdingle4093 There is one more Burnum. It is small one but history fan will love it. It is located in Krka national park. It was military amphitheatre for legionnaires.
@@domagojhotvat7992 yes, that was an ancient military camp i went past it a lot of times. Didn't count it because it isn't as grand as the other ones
Pula is more than 2000 years old. Remember that for life!
Wow! Croatia looks beautiful. It so true what you say about looking for more beautiful and intricate places when you are filming and making videos 😄 We like that you guys are exploring lesser known places we love doing that as well!
Just new to your channel but am absolutely loving your vlogs. Croatia looks fantastic and I'd love to visit at some point. Can't wait to see your new adventures xx
Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining Jen ;)
We have a new video on Rovinj. Probably one of our favourite places in Croatia.
Good evening. As a born citizen of Pula its simpatic to see some video made about my town. I hope you had a great time and that you will come back someday.
Greetings from Pula
Thanks a lot! We really enjoyed it.
Holy cow I did NOT expect that! It's already proving to be a worthy travel spot!
I luv pula. Lucky to go there twice, I can’t wait to someday soon go back to istra.
I love this video you just made... it helps us to imagine travel. Thanks, Kim! Thanks, Naick!
I actually stayed at an Airbnb in Pula that was across the street from the Roman Colosseum. My view was practically inside this Arena. Wonderful.
Wow, that must have been incredible. Was it expensive to stay there?
It was $42 a night. Not too bad and the view was magical.
Keep in mind that there is just one Colosseum and this is one in Rome. With the time has got that name. In the past useg to be calld Arena too. Arena means sand in Latin. Nowdays we are saying Colosseum because it used to be a colossal staute of the Emperor Nero in the front of the Amphitheatre. This one in Pula and in Verona are called Arena. This one in Pula was built by Emperor Tiberius born as Titus.
@@silvanapenzenstadler5904 true...I should not have called it a colosseum. It’s an arena.😊
What a lovely spot, thanks for the tip, might go there with our van once everything is back to normal.
Please do, definitely recommend it. We even saw a few other campers, mostly Germans.
You need to go to Zadar. You would love it. The sea organ is so cool. Also so much history, I never expected to see. Some things were from BC.
Your video today was fun. Love to see you enjoy yourselves, without large cowds.
Best city i recoment
Yes. If you into history then there is a lot of variation in influence, from roman, to venetian and habsburg rule later. But to visit croatia properly, you need like 2-3 months travel because you can stay one day only in specific city but thats not the full experience. Croatia as a whole is fascinating mix. Borders of borders, east west, mediterean, cooler climate, even the coastline cities even if they may seem alike they are specific in their own way due to historical paths.
Why didn't you expect that there's history in Croatia? The country is in Europe so of course it has alot of history
Pula is my hometown, I was born there. It's pity you didn't visit the 19 century-old center of Pula, which was built by the Austrians when Pula was the main harbor of the Austro-Hungarian fleet. There are some fine examples of Austrian architecture in Pula that give Pula a real "Little Vienna" touch. There is also a medieval Venetian Castle called Kaštel in the old town of Pula, not far away from the Forum you have visited (5 minutes by walking)., with a spectacular view. Other parts of town are mainly new, built after WW2, and not so attractive to tourists (with exception of swimming, fun, and recreation activities).
However, there are Brijuni (Brioni) Islands near Pula (actually, near Fažana, 8 km away from the center of Pula). It is a National Park. The archipelago used to be a hub for the European elite before WW2 and later the summer residence of ex-YU president Tito. The main island is filled with monuments (the remains of the Roman Villa Rustica Verige, Byzantine Castrum, etc., as well as wonderful Mediterranean nature).
If you're still in Istria, don't miss the medieval town of Motovun, located on the top of the hill and surrounded by medieval (Venetian) walls, as well as Poreč with its UNESCO site Byzantine Basilica of Euphrasius (6th century AD) with fabulous golden mosaics. But you can visit all of that some other time. Enjoy your trip.
Thanks for all the tips Adriano! Definitely going to look into them. ❤❤
I told you, Pula is beautiful .... You walk in a T-shirt, good weather. Belgium / the Netherlands .... at night it freezes, during the day 3 degrees and snow. Ps, Turkey is very dangerous with covid at the moment. Thanks for sharing again. And see you next time. Stay safe and have fun.
Weather is crazy right now...
Yes, Turkey is not doing great. We were hoping the situation would turn sooner rather than later, but doesn't look like it. We still have a bit of a way to go before we would reach Turkey, so keeping our fingers crossed.
哇～沒想到亞得里亞海的水這麼清澈，猶如一面玻璃；後車窗一開，立刻成為海景房， Naick 真的好會形容；
普拉市的建築不但宏偉，更有著一層古樸的歷史風華；古羅馬神殿及廣場令人驚嘆，彷彿一趟時空穿越之旅；
Kim 在古羅馬劇院前展露戲胞，根本是天才喜劇女伶；這次普拉之旅果然非一般預期，驚喜不斷，謝謝分享！👍😃👏
You should’ve gone to Fažana & Brijuni island (I’m biassed cos my family live there/are from there ☺️). Happy travels xx
In the summertime (well, at least before the pandemic hit), there's a thing called "cinema under the stars" and they basically turn the Arena into a cinema! HUGE screen at the entrance, and you can just bring a blanket and some snacks and make yourself comfortable on the grass up there and watch a movie under the moonlight! We've watched Ice Age there, Harry Potter, the Minions... It's THE experience! I can't wait to go again when the pandemic is over...
That sounds amazing! And in such a beautiful setting it must be unforgettable. Hope you get to do that again soon when things are more normal again 🤗🤗 thanks for watching!
@@profeprofe4483 I am, but because of that I haven't been to or seen any hostels... Sorry I'm no help. 😅 You should book it rather soon tho, things are usually booked way ahead (at least when there is no p4ndemic 😅)
@@profeprofe4483 Find the "Titov Park", it's very near the Arena (Amphitheatre). Many people like to go there, sit on the grass or next to the monument and chill 😊 also if you're into rock music, check out the "Rock Caffe", it's also very near the Arena. (It's not the classic "Hard Rock Caffe") it used to be my fav place to hang out before I moved to Zagreb for uni. 😄 If you can, make sure to visit Medulin aswell! It's a 15 min drive (20ish with the bus) from Pula, there's tons of beach bars and a beautiful promenade and an amusement park aswell. If you don't have a car and don't wanna go with the buses around, take a taxi. But Uber isn't that much used there, make sure to look up "Taxi Cammeo".
Croatia looks beautiful. I really didn't know what to expect but I like it.
Regarding the vaccines I'm getting my first shot on April 12, 2021. I'm 68 so even though I've been eligible for a while they just didn't have appointments available. I hope people get vaccinated so the world can be more opened.
Love watching your videos. Traveling to Turkey looks like great fun.
Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤ Hope everything went well with vaccine shot today!
13:13 XDDDDDDD~~~So funny!
It's really a big surprise that there is a Colosseum!
I love Ancient architectures.
So impressive to see... 2000 years of history, hard to fathom!
No it’s not a surprise, it’s there since 2000y
@@HuBo485 lol
Croatia is great, don't leave it too soon, besides the amazing cities at the sea they have also amazingly beautiful national parks like Nationaal park Plitvicemeren. 👍
Thanks for the tips Robert. Going to head there when it stops raining here ;)
Well, what a surprise Croatia is turning out to be. My list gets longer of countries that l would like to travel to. Stay safe.
I have a videos of few places in Croatia, you can check it out if you like 😊
Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤
That's indeed the problem, the more you travel, the longer the lists gets.
If you like walking near the sea, there is a beautiful promenade in the city of Rovinj (Roviny). Also, there is a promenade in the city of Vrsar that is a bit longer.
We did indeed go there and it's really beautiful!
I live here but it's nice to look trough your eyes..We are too used to it that we sometimes forget how beautiful some things are ❤👋
So true! We also made a video about our home town at it was nice to look at it from a tourist perspective.
We're foreigners in our late 30s (from Canada) living in Romania and we've been vaccinated for 3 months already. Romania is vaccinating everyone - tourists and foreigners included!
Really? We looked into getting vaccinated at Bran castle and it was not allowed for tourists then. But good that they are offering it 💪 we have been vaccinated in Bulgaria in the meantime!!! So happy about that 😍
@@NaickKim That must have been right before they opened up the vaccinations to everyone. We live about 15 minutes from the Bran castle 😊 Glad you got the vaccine in Bulgaria instead. Enjoy your travels! I'm loving your Turkey videos!
Heel mooi rapportage. Ik ben geboren in Pula. Leuk hoor. Bedankt.
Oh wat leuk! Waar woon je nu?
@@NaickKim ik woon in Holland, Zuid Holland.
Went to Pula about 15 years ago in the summer. It was packed with tourists. You have the whole city to yourself. When we were there there was a couple getting their wedding photos taken in the amphitheatre. Went swimming in the crystal clear water. Exquisite.
Here in Israel all the family has been vaccinated including my 18 year old son. I heard that they're planning on vaccinating 12-15 year olds soon now that the vaccine has been tested on younger people too.
they should vacinate embrios as well.
@@plonkerification I know you're being facetious, but pregnant woman in Israel are being vaccinated too, because they have been catching the virus, as with the foetuses. The new born babies get over the virus, but some don't get the chance to be born because the mother, who hasn't been vaccinated, dies of the virus.
@@ziontours5893 lol
Jealous you got to see the Med!!! It’s been the North Sea for us for the last 2 years 😂What a gorgeous city, old towns of cities are always the best bit. Croatia is definitely on our travel list. Sending greeting from Wales.
Pula seems quite big, but actually its tiny. You always end up in the same center
I'm surprised to see how little "westerners" know about Croatia but again, that seems to be normal
Most Westerners don't even know much about their own country. I have lived in Germany for 40 years. Here nearby there is an important "Oppidum" of the Celts. Most of the inhabitants here have never visited it. Europeans come from different countries to experience history here.
Im from Croatia..and i live about 20km away from Pula..and everything you said about Istria and Croatia is absolutley correct..Croatia has the most rugged coastline in Europe with around 1240 islands and ridges..thank you very much for your nice thoughts and words about my home..hopefully youre going to visit other parts of Istria,they maybe dont have Roman buildings,but beaches and sea water is far more clear and pure then in Pula..i can give you some tips too..Poreč,Rovinj,Rabac (my favourite place in Istria),Umag,Novigrad and much more smaller towns and places..greetings from Istria!
Thanks a lot for all the tips. We did also go to Rovinj and absolutely loved it there. Such a beautiful town. We'll put the other ones on our list for when we are in Istria next time.
Every time, I see a vlog with this city, a crack up. 😂 😂 😂 🤣🤣🤣
That water looks like how I remember the water in the Greek islands in the 70's - breathtaking! I love ancient history so the Roman buildings are a big plus, too. I hope you can get your vaccinations soon; in central/southern California, anyone over 16 can now be vaccinated. (Each county is at a different stage, probably depending on their population, but we expect everyone to be vaccinated by June 1.)
Glad you liked it.
Drago mi je da ste uživali.
Thanks for video Hello FROM ILAND LOLLAND DENMARK BJARNE XPOST greth VIDEOS FROM YOU 🇧🇪🇩🇰🇭🇷☀️
My home is just to the right of the city hall you filmed in the forum (the square)!! I wish i saw this sooner, I could have shown you some hidden secrets of pula! ;)
No way! That is so cool. That would have been great. Next time when we get to Pula ;)
You should visit Opatija Town, it is on the way to Rijeka town.
Thanks for watching. We'll look into it!

Hi Guys... Great videos. This week we maybe go to Pula.. .. Did you had any problems with police with night parking?
No we didn't experience any problems in the 2-3 weeks we spent there. But it was off season, so they might have been more relaxed.
"meat cheese, meat cheese, cheese" this lady sells all the good stuff!
Those are the two most popular versions of burek.
Should've turned it into a tune ;) Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤
That lady is good soul of our city! :)
Taiwan is still very safe. Thank you for bringing me to admire so many different countries and landscapes. Love you 😘
My pleasure 😊
Thank you for introducing our beautiful city of Pula to the public so nicely
Thank you! Will do!
I'm stoked as to how happy my hometown has made you! :-)
The "old building made of stone" is the seat of Pula/Pola's mayor, the Communal Palace, and it was built in 1296. You'll also notice that the city's official name is Pula/Pola, Pola being its Italian name. Officially, the city is bilingual just as whole of Istria is. It used to be Austria-Hungary's main war port and it had a tram between 1904 and 1934. The place you soaked your feet at towards the end of the video is called Saccorgiana and it used to be a ramp to unload tanks and motorized infantry units from military ships when the city was part of the Kingdom of Italy between 1919 and 1947.
Also, you should've gone to have a look at the network of underground tunnels called Zerostrasse built by Austria-Hungary for faster infantry movement in case of an air raid or invasion.
When Naick said he was hungry I thought you would've gone for a pizza in Jupiter, one of the best pizzerias in town, super close to the city walls you visited.
Anyhow - love your videos and your channel! Keep up the good work and looking forward to checking out your next adventure! :-)
It was such a beautiful city, we really loved it. We thought it would be a great place to live. Thanks for all the info!
Do you still live there?
@@NaickKim You're welcome! I'm sure Pula/Pola would only become richer with folks like you two moving there! :-) In recent years, it's become a popular place among digital nomads, for instance.
It is a nice place to live. The County of Istria and Zagreb are statistically the wealthiest parts of the country, and Pula/Pola interestingly was the only city in Croatia had a population increase in the last three years! Also, in terms of tourism, Istria is the most visited tourist destination in whole of Croatia (before Dubrovnik, Split and all of Dalmatia!).
Unfortunately, business took me to Switzerland but my family and closest friends still live in Pula/Pola so I go back quite often. Would you be heading back, feel free to drop me a message for some local tips & tricks which I'd be more than happy to share :-)
Thanks Marin! We'll let you know when we head back, to get some insider tips.
Funny, we actually had the idea of moving to Switzerland and had a job lined-up etc. But in the end it didn't work out and we had to cancel the plans.
Another great video guy’s.
We went to split a couple of years ago and it was amazing and very hot!
The vaccine is going great hear in the UK all my family have had 1st jab and my parents who are elderly have had both jabs.
The government have only just started to ease lockdown and it’s been really hard but hopefully we can get back to travelling in out motorhome soon.
Love from south of UK. X
Thanks Ian ;)
Split is definitely on the list. Happy to hear UK is doing good. I read somewhere that a UK cruise is starting again very soon. I'd prefer the Caribbean, but we'll take a rainy cruise in the UK too!
Pula❤
Thank you very much
Thanks for watching! ♥️
I love Croatia and went with my youngest son to Split last year. Booked flights for the 12th May this year, to go to Pula, but Ryanair cancelled :-/
Oh sorry to hear that. Hope you can get here soon. What country are you from?
In summer in Pula in roman amphitheatre you can see gladiator fights live
Yes, we read about that. That would be really amazing!
意外的旅行 就有意外的驚喜!! 美麗的普拉
Before Covid Pula was cramped in summer
But that's only City Center packed with tourists
Yes, it's pretty popular in summer!
Hi guys, I see all your videos from my TV and never coment, but I just want to thank you for keep going with your content, is very inspiring for me, you inspire me to keep going with my little channel, some times is not that easy, I am loving this new serie, very unespected and places where not many people go, regards from a Latina leaving in Belgium, a big fan of you.
I was born in Pula and still live there and you missed quite a few spots, i was surprised you didnt film on top of the kaštel and the second roman amphiteathre.
I'm so glad you have seen the Mediterranean water! If you'd gone to Spain, as I suggested, you'd be heading to finnesterre in some way. You went Marco Polo. You might skip Greece, but I've thought that the food I've seen in travel videos made Greek food look especially well done. I go to a couple Turkish tapa places in Washington and have enjoyed the Turkish company. I've know a bartender from Bulgaria whose modest love of where he's from makes me want to go there. There are two lilac bushes in my neighborhood just beginning to bloom. They smell like lilacs! My Bulgarian friend has mentioned the smell of roses. I didn't know about Pula's amphitheater. In 1949 my parent went on a delayed honeymoon to Rome and I have a photo of them by the Colosseum. (Thank goodness for spellcheck. I think colosseum must be easier to spell in Spanish.) My mother threw out her passport and my father and a hotel employee had to go through the trash to find it. I bet trash was simpler back then. And there you guys were next to a modest little Roman temple (I've met people in bars like that) and an arena that fit 20,000 Roman citizens. Who's you're favorite rock star? A pretty good venue even today. I'm not a croissant guy. I prefer dough with eggs. Not too much sugar. I'd prefer a yeast dough around my cheese. But I know I'd love the foods you've tried in that vein in Croatia. The french fries with the veal in the pretty town near Zagreb in the spring looked like the best ever. The sea was so clear.
I knew another bartender whose father ran a hotel on a Croatian island. It surely wasn't idyllic but could sound that way. Your van is an idyll. I noticed you sometimes demur and call it a car. I heard tonight that van travel has become a thing. You're doing the thing well. You're becoming more skilled. I started watching you in Mexico. Another America, yet America. El mismo, pero diferente. Then I fell into Taiwan, as you did. The other videos I need to catch up on.
Pula has the Roman ruins I've read about in Merida, Spain, plus a way out. To Turkey! With the sadness going on in Syria, which makes Covid like a side event except for those who suffer from it, as well as the troubles in Armenia and Azerbaijan and eastern Ukraine, I bet you won't go to China. The situation of the Uighurs is troubling. Turkey is bold enough! Good luck. And good luck getting back to Belgium for a vaccination. I should get one soon. If the EU has had problems re Covid, it will learn.
Happy Easter week! We can only know so many people. Love fewer. But remember that in the vastness of God's creation you were created as individuals whom you let us see and I think you spread joy. God's eye is on the sparrow. How much more us? You're a lively website! Thanks.
Oh yes it definitely feels good to be back in the Mediterranean. Spain was our first choice, but it's really hard to travel there now with a lot of restrictions and lockdowns.
We really love visiting these historic places. Over 2000 years of history there, hard to fathom.
Kim isn't really into rock music, but for me, I really like Guns 'n Roses. More modern day, I'd say the black keys.
So far really enjoying life in our van. We're also eager to travel to more exotic places again like China, Mexico, or wherever we can go really. Happy to be healthy and to be traveling.
The amphitheather is still very much used, we have Pulski Filmski Festival there. It'a movie festival and it premiers croatian movies. Fun fact Mussolini wanted to excavate the amphitheather and bring it to Italy, but of course it was impossible😂
I am surprised to see this arena in Croatia. Never knew it has such Roman influence. Can’t quite remember how the arena was like when I visited the one in Rome, but this one in Pula, Croatia, sure is impressed👍 wish to visit this country one day😃 thank you for sharing 😊
yes ,and its in bette r conditon than in rome
As a matter of fact the whole territory of nowadays Croatia was ruled by the Roman Empire for centuries! So there’s huge number of Roman era remains and archaeological sites. Arena in Pula, as far as I remember is the second most preserved one in the whole world after Colosseum in Rome and also one of the few largest ones.In addition, in Croatian second largest city of Split there are impressive and huge remains of the largest Roman palace buildt by the Roman emperor Diocletian in 4th century AD that are absolutely worth visiting! In the nearby Solin there are also many remains of the Roman times as same as in the Zadar and some other cities. Remains from this time can be seen even in the continental Croatia. Many of these are valuable examples of the UNESCO protected heritage sites of the world!
Greetings from Croatia!
Istria, region where Pula/Pola is placed, had been roman, venetian and italian for 2000 years. Only in 1947 it became Yugoslavian and in 1991 Croatian.
@@Caleidus
That is pure manipulation that has the nationalist and expansionist agenda to claim exclusive Italian right at the territory of the all Istria! Modern Italy has as much common with the Romans as any other Mediterranean country regardless of it's central territorial position in ancient Roman empire! People in Italy and all other Mediterranean countries are nothing but complex mixture of Romans and many other tribes that came here throughout middle ages! So no one holds exclusive rights on Roman heritage no matter how hard many Italians hold that to be true!
Furthermore, Istrian peninsula has very long history of inhabitance of Croats, Slovenians and Italians ones next to each others that is centuries long!
@@fapmashina1 Ehhehe. If Rome was in Croatia you would be more than happy to claim her heritage as exclusively yours. You should not manipulate history. Istria was venetian (another Italian city) till 1797 and was culturally Italian till 1947. Slavs lived inland and did not give any contribution (as in Dalmatia) in terms of civilization to the region. Istria became an Italian region of the Roman Empire in 200BC "Venetia et Histria", then it became Venetian and always Italian till 1947. More than 2000 years of continuous latin/venetian/italian identity and you call it Croatia? Beyond ridiculous........
Bruh, I'm in the fuckin video!😂
Whaat? 🤪 Which part are you in?
Very interesting, i had no idea
Pula is known for its Colosseum (but some tourists don't know about it). As a Croatian I like Pula much more than Split and Dubrovnik (Dubrovnik is really expensive).
The amphitheatre is also used for concerts because it has special acoustics😁
Love your travel vlog.😉😉😉
Thank you!! 😁
Pruod to be CROAT,
Thanks for your video.
Try to go to Zadar and Šibenik
Thanks for the tips! 💖
Mmhh... You live in Europe and dont know anything about Croatia? Really? I am wondering. But ok, i am very interested in other Countrys and like to watch doctumentarys about them. When you think Pula is pretty then go to south croatia. Zadar and Split.. Dubrovnik an the Croatian Islands.
I live in Cozumel, Mexico and only some of the 60+ seniors have had their shots. I was lucky to get my 2nd vaccine on April 5th. Haven't left the island in 2 years and am looking forward to travelling again soon. My sister in Toronto, Canada just posted that the province of Ontario has gone into another lockdown for 28 days. :(
adore your Streams keep trucking :)
Thank you for this nice video. I am also an citizen of Pula and I never ever would like to move away from here.
But, there is also a downside in your video.
As you are travelling as campers, please be advised that wild camping in Croatia is not allowed and you should register your stay at camping sites or at least check with the local municipalities where and under which circumstances your stay is legal.
I am sure that you have not littered around, but sometimes it is a mess, some campers leave on spots they left after a night, one nationality is outstanding in this discipline without to mention it now (it is not Belguim for sure).
Just a small advice, other than that enjoy Croatia, enjoy also the other spots along the coast!!!! Stay safe and bring more of your videos!! :)
Thanks for watching!
04:30 it's town hall and mayor's office :)
It's a bit funny cuz that's Adriatic sea.
Even tho thank you for your video vlog about the coast
Thanks for watching ;)
The Adriatic Sea is part of the Mediterranean 👍
Happy to see that you are still filming around the world. We miss you in China.
Thanks! Would love to visit China again. Hopefully we can again soon.
This scene is so touching.
Croatia♥️
❤❤
Hi Naick & Kim,
I started watching your videos from the trips of Romania, long before you came to Taiwan. I am really happy to see you continue your journey.
I has been to Turkey three times. It's a very fascinating country, and vast territory.
The following is a list of attractions that I think are great.
First, Istanbul.
In addition to the must-visit Hagia Sophia, Blue mosque, I think Topkapi Palace is very beautiful, where you can experience the glorious history of the Ottoman Empire.
I also highly recommend the Suleymaniye Mosque. You can enjoy the view of the Golden Horn(Haliç) from the rooftop cafe next to it.
The view of Pierre Loti Cafe behind The Eyüp Sultan Mosque is also amazing.
The streets and alleys of Istanbul are full of exotic colors, I love Istanbul so much.
Second, I also recommend you to go to the areas along the Aegean Sea.
For example, Ephesus in Izmir (the huge ancient Greek ruins) , and the nearby Greek small town Sirince.
Don't miss the snow-white Pamukkale. Remember to bring your swimwears, because there is a hot spring pool above Pamukkale, and the beautiful Hierapolis ancient city just ocated at the top.
If you have plenty of time, you might as well visit Eastern Turkey.
Martin, the honey-colored border town.
Gaziantep, the hometown of pistachios.
Şanlıurfa, the Holy city in Islam.
There are too many fun places, even if you have three months, you can't finish it. Just pick the places you are interested in and enjoy it.
If later on your way back to Belgium, you have the opportunity to cross the Transfăgărășan Road in Romania, it would be perfect.
Bon Voyage.
looks beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
If you plan to visit Split don't miss out Salona (in Solin near Split). At one time it was 4th largest city in Roman empire.
Beautiful place.
Yes it was! Really enjoyed it!
You just take us on the most amazing journies. . Yes we are vaccinating 16 plus
16 plus already? Wow! Have to admit we are slightly envious. All that planning around, requiring testing, etc has been eating at our energy level lately.
You keep repeating Dubrovnik and Split most visited while true is that in top 6 cities visited in Croatia 4 of them are in Istria region where Pula is located.
One village ( Medulin ) next to Pula have same number of visitors as Split.
1. Dubrovnik - 4,4 milijuna
2. Rovinj - 4,0 milijuna
3. Poreč - 3,5 milijuna
4. Split - 2,8 milijuna
5. Medulin 2,8 milijuna
6. Umag - 2,7 milijuna noćenja
Didn't know that, cheers!
So glad you made it to the coast. I remember the beautiful water of the Adriatic even from when I was a college student on my trip there. The US vaccination rate started slowly but is really gaining steam. I live on the Atlantic Coast in Virginia and people 20 and above with no health problems are now registering, though it may be a couple of weeks before they actually get their first vaccine. Hopefully those of us countries that have had a large rollout will soon have an excess that we can share with others around the world.
Go to countryside villages spend time with locals and explore home cook food .Will be new kind of fun .what u 🇮🇳 say cute couple love from India 😎
在廣場神廟跟羅馬競技場都有隻鳥的影子在飛來飛去，那是什麼鳥?
Guys if you didn't you need to check Plitvička jezera (Plitvice Lakes)
Thanks! We're going to go there indeed. Just waiting for the weather to improve. It has been raining for days now. Jeez!
Have you been in catacomby in theater? 😁
Clean water ...looks like Hawaii
The water is definitely super clean. Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤
Hmm wonder what is it that is not expected? 🤔
Edit: Heyyyy 😁👋🏼
In Singapore currently senior citizens and essential workers first now. Then middle aged and then younger adults etc.
I come from Croatia and idk what people do expect when they come. Of course there's history, we do live in Europe. It also annoys me how people only talk about the coast, like haloooooo there's also the mainland and it's just as beautiful as the coast
So, what did you expect??
If you make it back to Pula, hit me up. I'll give you a tour of Pula and tell you the history and legends. Did you see the Punishment of Dirca mosaic? There are only three complete representations of it left, and we have one here in Pula.
Aww thanks for the offer Michelle. We'll keep it in mind when we get back up there!
真是太美了，原來不只有羅馬有這麼美麗宏偉的競技場。謝謝你們的影片，讓我能認識這麼美麗的地方。
Love Croatia and see is not Mediteranian its Adriatic... aka Jadransko more in Croatian. Great video.
You are right!
Proud to live in Pula. So happy that you visit us 😃
Our pleasure!Thanks a lot ❤❤
Interesting video!
Thanks for watching! 💖💖
Like it, a lot!!..........
Oh yes, we loved it! ❤❤
Definitely check out our new video on Rovinj if you haven't already.
It is not true Pula is less visited. Split is visited more because game of thrones, after split there is istria, second most visited region in croatia. Its pandemic now so you wont see much people, but before covid, istra brings most of the tourism income to the state.
So beautiful ❤️😍❤️❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
💖💖💖💖 Thank you
Its Adriatic sea
這個羅馬競技場好像不用收費⋯⋯羅馬的10年前要12歐⋯⋯⋯
There was a charge of about 10 EUR. Quite fair if you ask me, so much time and effort going into conservation etc.
Hey,it is ADRIATIC-JADRANSKO more 🙃
Already on my 2nd vaccine! U.S. is moving fast...all adults 16 and older can get vaccine starting April 19th!
Your 2nd vaccine already? Leave some for other people, mate ;)
Just kidding. Congrats on being fully vaccinated!
Thanks for watching! ❤❤❤
there are so many good spots other then Dubrovnik and Split. Like all the rest are better, but depending on what you're going for, not to offend our fellow regions. But if you want chill, calm'er pristine spots, just go to our islands. Hvar etc
I've got an idea (never said it was a good idea...just an idea). Naick and Kim...Come to NYC to get your vaccine as you are now eligible and then go back to Croatia and onwards. That Mediterranean sun is doing you good. Beautiful there. Since Romans ruled that area.. that explains all those Roman ruins.. fascinating. I'm working remotely and get these Naick and Kim notifications and tell myself..don't do it! DON'T DO IT! But I have to see where you are next...
Naick + Kim > Work
Kind of pricey to fly to NYC though. We are homeless and living in a van ;)
@@NaickKim Hi guys. I'm being silly, of course. My humor...it ain't universal. 😆 Looking forward to you in Turkey because it's one of my personal favorites (along with Egypt...sweet Egyptians).
Question..at your leisure...ever been to Morocco? Keep safe. Kim is so talented with the drone and photography and timing in the edits btw. 🍺 🍻
Romanian people? :)
