KristijenGuideExtraordinaire


I can't imagine a more difficult tour guide job then taking a group of 18 people through Croatia and Slovenia during the foggiest and coldest days of the year, slogging through icey rain and snow through city after city and keeping everyone's interest. Can you imagine having to start a sentence with, "If you could only see to your right, you would see...." and then having to paint a picture to make the unseen interesting? Kristijen did that and more. He has an almost photgraphic memory for history and dates, and without notes, can take you through the 10,000 year history of a city with accuracy and one of the driest wits I have encountered.During the trip I found myself capturing "Kristijenisms" that are pricelss.
