Welcome to my blog!

Hi! Or “Bok” as we say in Croatian. I’m Leila, a Croatian-Iranian dietitian born and raised in America, currently living in San Diego, California – though half of my heart lies in Croatia. Since I was a child, I have spent my summers in Croatia every year, and it’s become my true happy place – where my mind and soul find peace.

I’m passionate about embracing and sharing my culture, whether via travel, food, or simply creating genuine meaningful connections. On this site, I combine my attention to detail, organization and planning skills, and love for culture, and share hidden gems, local travel tips, and my personal take on Croatia – helping you experience the beauty and authenticity of my home away from home.

Hvala! 🙂
