Situated on the Adriatic Sea, Zadar is a captivating coastal city in Croatia that seamlessly blends antiquity and modernity. Anchored by its rich Roman and Venetian history, Zadar is scattered with Romanesque churches, medieval architecture, and is known for its well-preserved historic city center. Visitors can explore its Old Town, secluded amidst peninsular walls, and adorned with St. Donatus Church, the Roman Forum, and the circular Byzantine-style St. Anastasia's cathedral. Zadar has also made a name for itself in modern installations like the enchanting Sun Salutation and Sea Organ, which use the sun's energy and the motion of the waves to create striking visuals and melodious tunes respectively. From the historic treasures to the beauty of the seafront, Zadar is a vibrant, alluring destination that encourages exploration and indulgence in Croatian culture.

Croatia was my first solo trip, and I stayed with people through Couchsurfing. Everyone was so kind – I met many beautiful souls and had such a positive experience.
I really recommend solo traveling, it teaches you a lot and opens your heart.
The places I visited were amazing – I stayed in Zadar and also went island hopping. One of the islands I visited was Ošljak, which was so peaceful and beautiful.
