There Are Real Life Unicorns in Croatia!

See? Two of them, right there!

Oh ho ho. I'm pretty funny. I hope I got you all with my hilarious title. There are a lot of goats here though. Really big goats - and some of the them have quite large horns on their heads and they just wander around the streets casually. I tried to get some pictures of them, but there was this big alpha-male goat who was walking towards me more quickly than I felt comfortable with, so I jumped on my bike and rode madly away, imagining the whole way that it was chasing me (are goats even that dangerous? I don't know. I didn't want to stick around to find out.)

bodysuit - Asos (sold out - but here's another unicorn shirt)
belt - Thrifted
skirt - Paper Hearts
shoes - c/o Yeswalker

And here are some photos taken just a short time afterwards, on an Istrian marina. Sunset in Europe lasts for about 3 hours - bizarre for me, because in Sydney the sun sets extremely quickly! I love Croatia more than I can even describe. The night ended with cocktails at what is possibly the coolest bar I have ever been to, sitting on cushions on rocks right next to the crystal-clear sea water.

It's pretty mad to think that I only learnt last year why the sky is blue (light of the entire visible spectrum - white light - comes to us from the sun, and the atmosphere of Earth scatters the blue light - the light with the shortest wavelengths - more than the other colours. And that's why the whole sky appears blue).

But I never even questioned why the sky turns orange or red at sunset.
Thanks to this fantastic video by "It's Okay to be Smart", I now know why sunsets are so pretty!

Have a great day,

  6. Croatia looks gorgeous! I hope you're enjoying yourself.
    Your skirt and body suit are lovely. I was eyeing that unicorn one but I can't muster up enough courage to actually buy it.

  7. Although I could've sworn that was from Physics 101, it's surprising how it's not common knowledge. The thing about unicorns, I mean.
