Not Alone in the Croatian Mountains @Roodada | Cycling to Asia | Video diary Episode 06

Documentation and impressions of the bicycle trip around the world from Germany to Asia. This episode is about bikepacking cycling in Croatia. I started in Rijeka and took the Euro Velo 8 cycle path to near Zadar. I met other cyclists from Colombia (@Roodada) and we traveled together for three days. Visited cities and tasted traditional food. It was a great part of my journey.
