Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

I didn't travel far! Prishtina is the capital of Kosovo, and for the most part, my life takes place within a two mile radius of my apartment.

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

I've traveled pretty far! New York to Kosovo was about 4,600 miles. Since I've been living here, I've traveled about 2,300 additional miles.

Let's just say I've spent a lot of time riding buses through the Balkans! 

How did I get around this week?:

This week I traveled entirely by foot! There's no need for me to drive while going about my life in the city, so unless I'm taking a bus outside of Prishtina, I walk pretty much everywhere! I actually really love it, and it's one of the things I'll miss most when I get back home. Living car-free saves money and fuel emissions, and it has made me so much more observant of my surrounding environment.

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

I love going to restaurant and cafes! This might not sound exciting to you, but it was exciting to me! I have a tendency to find my spots and stick to them. This week, however, I mixed it up and visited a coffee shop in a rustic old home off a side street, and I really enjoyed it. It had excellent coffee!
