Where: Montenegro border

Distance: 2,650 km



The coast of Montenegro is like an enchanting picture book. On this journey so often I found that pictures and videos just don't capture the dramatic views. Sadly I cannot lend you my eyes as much as I wish that I could.




The entire coast line is only 326 km so after just arriving in the country I am about to sadly depart. Off to the unknown land of Albania.



Montenegro is a strange mix of very wealthy Russians on holiday flaunting it all through to the obviously poor.


This afternoon I had a funny experience. I stopped into a store to grab a refreshing cold drink. While I was standing outside in the shade the older lady who had served me in the store begun to unload heavy boxes and carry them into the store to stock her shelves. I decided to give her a hand and she quickly set me to work and begun directing me around the store. It was nice to use a new muscle group for a change. Just as I begun to feel like an Egyptian slave the box unloading ended. She then rushed back into the store and presented me with an under arm deodorant stick. I refused but she insisted. How is that for subtle! ehehhehe



For those of you wondering I do shower one to two times per day and swim at least once per day and I already had a deodorant stick. Now I have two :).


May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human enough hope to make you happy.
