Sights to see, Places to visit (Mali Ston, Croatia) / Znamenitosti za vidjeti, mjesta za posjetiti (Mali Ston, Hrvatska)

Remember the Ston Walls I told you about? Well, they connect the Ston city with this nearby village that is called Mali Ston (meaning little Ston).  This village is only about a kilometer and half away from Ston city so you can basically walk there from Ston (or drive two minutes if you don't like walking). Little Ston (Mali Ston) is quite famous for its oysters and seafood. If you decide to dine here, you must try the oysters and/or mussels.  As you will see on these photographs, the oysters are farmed here so obviously they don't get any fresher than this. As I mentioned in my previous post, I was here on an unplanned trip for the first of May. In retrospective, my only regret was not taking a swimsuit. The sea was quite warm and the local beaches looked quite inviting. The Adriatic is very calm here. Truth be told, if I could afford a vacation, this is the place I would choose. I always felt at home in Dubrovnik area. I could even say that I love every part of Dalmatia equally. It all feels like home to me.

Sjećate se stonskih zidina o kojima sam vam govorila? One povezuju grad Ston s ovim obližnjim selom koje se zove Mali Ston. Samo mjesto je samo oko kilometar i pol udaljeno od Stona tako da možete praktično prošetati do tu iz Stona (ili se voziti dvije minute ako vam se ne da šetati). Mali Ston je poznat po svojim kamenicama i morskim plodovima. Ako se tamo odlučite jesti, morate probati kamenice ili/i dagnje. Kao što ćete vidjeti na fotografijama, kamenice se ovdje uzgajaju tako da ne mogu biti svježije. Kao što sam spomenula u prošloj objavi,  ovdje sam bila na neplaniranom izletu prvoga svibnja. U retrospektivi, žao mi je što nisam ponijela kupaći. More je bilo poprilično toplo, a okolne plaže su jako privlačno izgledale. Ovdje je Jadran jako miran. Da si mogu priuštiti ljetovanje, odabrala bi ovo mjesto. Uvijek sam se osjećala doma u tom području oko Dubrovnika. Zapravo bih rekla da volim svaki dio Dalmacije. Cijela regija mi daje taj neki osjećaj da sam kod kuće.

    How cute that the neighboring village to Ston is called Little Ston. The village looks so quaint and idyllic. A nice location for an unplanned trip for sure. Next time you'll just have to plan ahead and bring your bathing suit so you can enjoy the sea as well :)

    Great photo-report of Mali Ston, dearest Ivana! I love seafood very much, but I've never tried oysters. May be I would try it there. I can hardly believe that the water was so warm: We had a cold (or cool and uncomfortable...) day here today and it was raining sometimes...
    Hugs from here, Traude

    Hi Ivana :) Thank you for sharing these photos and your opinion about Mali Ston - you did great post, dear. What's more, I'm not huge fan of seafood in general, but if I'd have opportunity to be there someday, I'd try everything, what you recommend for sure, because if Mali Ston is famous because of seafood, the one conclusion is that seafood from that place has to be really delicious :)
    Take care, dear :)

    Looks like an idyllic place, Ivana. I love fresh oisters, haven't had any in a long time, or so it seems. Now my mouth is watering, girl, lol. Beautiful photos, btw. Unplanned trips are often the most excited ones.

    There is so much beauty and charm - in both the natural surroundings, in the town and in you! Love the ruffles of your blouse and gray tights (perhaps my fave hue)!

    You live in such an incredible part of the world, so charming. I watched a program not so long ago about Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro and all former Yugoslavia countries, and among other towns, there were Split and Mostar, and I was hoping to see you on the streets! :)

    (You can find it on Youtube by the way, look for Rick Steves, he is a well known travel author and the host of his own travel program for many years, and he is local, lives just a few miles from us.)

    I have a feeling I'll love Little Ston cos I'm a seafood lover, oysters and all. The waters look calm and beautiful although I'd not be swimming there. I'm petrified of water shame on e but I don have cute bathing suit. Hopefully you have yours on your next visit you can enjoy taking plunges there.

    You look lovely. I love a cute mini skirt with a great fit and yours is all that and more. You know what else I love? The effortlessness of the look with the jacket tied around your waist. Very cool!

    Hope your weekend is going great Ivana.

    Dear Ivana, I see it was really a pity you didn't take your swimsuit with you as it looks so inviting to have a bath there! In general I see it is a lovely place and I do understand your wish to have vacation here. Hopefully your wish comes true!
    And now I wish to have that fresh seafood you mentioned as I miss such food definitely here in Bavaria :)
    And I love you in your mini skirt!

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

RETURN FROM THE STARS, A NOVEL BY STANISLAW LEM

Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers. How is life treating you? Today I'm back with another reading recommendation. Now, some of you may remember that I love science fiction. Since I have discovered Stanislaw Lem, a Polish author of science fiction, I've just kept reading more of his works. I have  already reviewed three Lem's novel on this little digital place of mine: Eden, The Invincible and Solaris . Today I will review the fourth: a novel about a man who returns from the stars only to find his home changed so much,  it doesn't feel like home anymore. Titled  Return From the Stars  and published in 1961, this novel tells a story of an astronaut returning home to Earth after more than a century. + 21 WAYS TO STYLE THIS MINI FLORAL DRESS HERE Honestly, I'm surprised this novel is not better known or more praised. Return From the Stars in an amazing book. The writing is absolutely captivating. What particularly impressed me is how it felt like several novels wi

Darkness and Light / Tama i svijetlo

Image
'The Nellie, a cruising yawl, swung to her anchor without a flutter of the sails, and was at rest. The flood had made, the wind was nearly calm, and being bound down the river, the only thing for it was to come to and wait for the turn of the tide.  The sea–reach of the Thames stretched before us like the beginning of an interminable waterway. In the offing the sea and the sky were welded together without a joint, and in the luminous space the tanned sails of the barges drifting up with the tide seemed to stand still in red clusters of canvas sharply peaked, with gleams of varnished sprits. A haze rested on the low shores that ran out to sea in vanishing flatness. The air was dark above Gravesend, and farther back still seemed condensed into a mournful gloom, brooding motionless over the biggest, and the greatest, town on earth.'                                                                      Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness  Do you tend to remember the opening para

TRAVEL WITH MY ART #10: HVAR TOWN (CROATIA)

Image
Hello dear readers! I'm  very excited  to share a new canvas painting with you. This painting will take you to Hvar town. In the centre of this painting there is a 12.5 meters long traditional wooden fishing boat and in the background you can see Hvar town (where we first spotted this boat about a year ago). Moreover, this painting with mark my tenth post in TRAVEL WITH MY ART series. I created this series as a way of virtually travelling with the help of my paintings and illustrations. Naturally, I will also share our photography, especially when it comes to reference photographs. It is my goal to use art as a way of showing an additional and perhaps a bit more personal view of some place. While I enjoy photography a lot, I think I'm more a painter than a photographer.   I invested a lot of time and effort into this painting. I would say that I invested around 70 hours of work  into it. It was also a little nerve-wrecking because I wanted to get it just right. I often feel a b
