Michael, that last photo is amazing. I couldn't stop looking at it (I may never paint my living room again--just let it age and maybe throw some reclaimed firewood in the corner...) Because of all of your early morning shots, I'm beginning to be swayed...my husband has always taken the early shots and I'm never late for the evening ones. Why do we even bother to a have two cameras? (; Janelle
Michael—I only got to this piece today as I’m catching up. What a wonderful article! I’ll be in Split in May for only a few days but think it would be great to check out this neighborhood. Thanks for this—I love it!
Love this--as an "armchair" traveler experiencing your adventures vicariously, this is exactly the kind of place I would seek out if I were on the road myself!
Michael, this post really moves me. Thank you. When I travel, it's tiny moments in places that aren't part of "the big things" that stay with me. You found a neighborhood full of those tiny things! Your photos will stay with me a long time, too. Glad to be on the journey with you!
I was once told that the secret to enjoyment is viewing each new situation with the innocence and curiosity of a child. We try to do that and have stumbled into many serendipitous things and places in our travels. We were only in Split for 10 days but the area around Varoš was one place i wanted to explore. Glad you found it!
Oh I wish I'd had more time to explore - you found way more hidden gems that we did. Want to go back now😂

May be my favorite post. And I want one of those small houses!
Yep. What a lovely post!
We visited Croatia a few years ago and Split was one of my favourite places because of it's twisty streets and historical architecture.
'Love it! :D
Excellent piece on Varos!
A charming reminder to look close around us for happiness.
