If you want to see one of the most beautiful cities on the Adriatic Sea, you should travel to Rovinj, Croatia. Rovinj (pronounced ro-VEEN) is a surprise to most people who visit it. Sure, this is technically Croatia — but Rovinj looks like it could be in Italy! Almost like an extension of Venice! And […]

It’s crazy how different October 1 looked from October 31. At the beginning of the month, life in Prague was almost normal. Restaurants and bars closed at 10:00 PM, and masks were required indoors, but other than that, it was Prague as usual, operating in full. Then the Czech Republic’s COVID infection rate became the

I write a lot about politics here — and even more so on the Adventurous Kate Facebook page. Every single time that I post something remotely political, I get plenty of people saying, “Stick to travel.” Let’s talk about that. Travel is a political act. Every time you cross an international border, every time you

Italy is a dream destination — and one of the countries that I know best. It is a country that I have lived in, visited dozens of times, and am actually in right now as I write this. (Well, when I started it, at least. Started in Ferrara, finishing up in Prague.) And I’ve eaten

It’s pretty rare that I get to share my favorite conversation of the summer with you, word for word — but here we are, and I think you guys are REALLY going to enjoy it. Sustainability and responsibility are two essential parts of travel — but how do those play into economic survival during a
Finally, this was the month that I got back to Prague! We did not expect it to take this long. The reason why I went to Serbia in late June in the first place is because the Czechs were about to welcome partners of Czech residents back — but then when the official announcement came,

My friends, what an insane summer it’s been. As I careened from Serbia to Croatia to Italy, part of an uncertain six-month process of getting back home to Prague (which I finally did three days ago!!), I was keeping a secret all along. I wasn’t just traveling. Or just blogging. I was spending all day

I always dreamed of spending a summer hopping along the Adriatic. I would touch down in Venice and head to Piran in Slovenia, making my way down the coasts of Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, and Greece. Well, I kind of got that. I never dreamed it would be under these circumstances. I am beyond thankful that
