Then & Now: The Co-Cathedral St Peter and Paul in Osijek

October 19, 2016 Comments (2) Views: 1768 Nostalgia , Postcards Then & Now: The Co-Cathedral St Peter and Paul in Osijek Wondrously rising against the skies in Osijek, Croatia, the Co-Cathedral St Peter and Paul is a multi-tiered 90-metre spire, a red-brick neo-Gothic giant, which makes the ultimate most recognized site of Croatia’s fourth largest city. As glorious as it is, I always wanted to visit it and experience the place with my own eyes and body. This old vintage postcard reveals how the glorious Co-Cathedral dominates above the small city square back in the day… The construction of the church started during the 1890’s, as an initiative of the vibrant Bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer who was based in the nearby city of Đakovo. Strossmayer certainly initiated not only a church that could serve with the capacity of 3000 people, ...

June 10, 2016 Comments Off on Time Travelling with the Navy of the Yugoslav Monarchy Views: 843 Looking Back , Nostalgia Time Travelling with the Navy of the Yugoslav Monarchy Slovenia has just 47 km coastline on the Adriatic Sea. It’s a small portion compared to neighboring Croatia and Italy, yet you will be pleasantly surprise of the places and small towns you can visit here. Piran for one is a true gem, overlooking to Trieste just next on the Italian coast, not more than 30 km. Very close also, Umago in Croatia, just hidden behind the hills.

Anyway, if you happen to visit Piran, make sure you pay a visit to the local museum where you can easily spend ...

May 20, 2016 Comments (2) Views: 1074 Looking Back , Nostalgia Prague – every corner keeps it’s own memory Ok,This is how time-travel machine should work right?  As I have never been in 12 th century before, I bite myself for reality check, standing in front of an old tower. Old, dirty tower remains there untouched to connect me with the past.  They call it the Keeper of the city. I’ve never seen such an old thing before in my life. You pass trough it and you’re on Charles Bridge  and entered 13 th century already. Five hundred sculptures waving at me and taking my full attention. V’ltava is under. The tiny raindrops on my head can’t stop me enjoying every corner in this early June morning. I go further and wait. Kafka is here. I guess I’m in the beginning of the 20 th century. Opera House with Mozzart’s sculpture. Don Giovanni was f...
