‘Travelling: it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a story teller.’
- Ibn Battuta
Who better to tell us the story of two fascinating countries than Charukesi Ramadurai : a freelance journalist and author whose byline has appeared in The New York Times, South China Morning Post,National Geographic Traveller, Forbes, Destination, Outlook Traveller, Conde Nast to name a few.
Slovenia is the world’s first country to be declared as a green destination. It is a destination that’s elegant and wild at the same time. It’s a country with unexpected revelations. From the soaring peaks of the Julian Alps and the subterranean magic of Postojna and Ć kocjan Caves, to sparkling emerald-green lakes and rivers and the Adriatic coast, Slovenia has it all.
Croatia - precariously poised between the Balkans and Central Europe,this land has been passed between competing kingdoms, empires and republics for millennia. If there’s an upside to this continual dislocation, it’s in the rich cultural legacy that each has left behind Croatia’s glittering waters and picture perfect coastal towns.
Join us as Charukesi Ramadurai regales us with her stories of these two
countries while taking us along on a virtual and visual treat of these Jewels of the Mediterranean. She writes on travel, food, books, arts & culture, gender and development issues and the joys of social media and net working.
