From the center of the wine revolution in Slavonia to the upstarts in Istria and all along the Dalmatian Coast, Croatia is home to the world’s best wine makers, wines, and established and up-and-coming brands. With so many great wines to choose from, the problem for the wine aficionado and the newbie alike becomes not “How can I find the best Croatian wine,” but where should I even start? The Anima chardonnayis characteristic of all the wines produced in this boutique vineyard.

Bjelolasica: Readily accessible from all regions of Croatia, this center of winter mountain activity is a staple in the Croatian landscape. Ironically, the Croatian ski team – which calls this mountain home – actually practice in Austria. Sljeme : Home of world cup events for skiing, it’s a relatively unknown (equals great opportunity for you to cut your own line) in the snowboarding world. Velika: Head to Velika if you’re into spicy sausage or off-the-beaten path snowboarding.

Are you ready to retire? Dreams of retiring to such domestic hotspots as Florida, Arizona, or California just aren’t feasible any more. Filled with gorgeous coasts, mountains, and hinterlands, as well as countless island paradises you ever will see, Croatia is truly a sight to see. There’s never been a better time to live and invest in Croatia. With the recent inflation in most of the world’s beach resort locations, comparatively prices are incredibly affordable in Croatia.

You’re strolling along white sand beaches, your toes digging into the warmth. A seaside concert? You’re in Croatia! Istria: If you have never been to Croatia, there is no better place to start than Istria. Located in western Croatia, Istria’s coastline stretches on for miles and is dotted with numerous gorgeous beaches, bays, and quaint villages that will magically transport you to a better time.

It’s simple: They all love a good cigar! No, actually, they all love a great cigar! Long having taken a backseat to the Cuban cigar-making dynasty, Nicaragua is making its mark on the international scene with the finest cigars found anywhere on the planet. With so many great cigars to choose from, the problem for the cigar aficionado and the newbie alike becomes not “How can I find a good Nicaraguan cigar,” but where should I even start?

Nicaragua is quickly becoming one of the hottest spots to buy property in the world. I always warn potential buyers to take some precautions before discussing any land sale and I recommend avoiding some properties all together.

Are you ready to retire? There’s never been a better time to live and invest in Nicaragua. The rebuilding effort is in full swing and retirees are scooping up cream of the crop properties at seriously discounted prices. If you’ve ever dreamed of living, investing, or retiring to your very own private paradise, don’t miss the opportunity to start living the good life you deserve.

For others, it’s images of romantic white sand beaches or lush tropical rainforests. What is this insane sport, you ask? Volcano surfing, of course! Volcano surfing is quickly becoming the latest craze that extreme sportists are flocking to Nicaragua to experience.
