MY EXPERIENCE IN BUDVA

I recently visited Budva in the off season and during a lockdown due to Covid-19. Though it was not my first time in Budva, this combination left me with a new experience. It felt as though I had the who city to myself. It was a weird feeling to walk the alleyways of The Old Town alone. I felt like I was in a dream. Yes, these times are tough, but when you look on the bright side you can take advantage of the situation. After all, I never in my wildest dreams imagined that I would be able to have a private tour of The Old Town. It was like I rented the place out. Lockdowns or not, Budva is a place that must be on your bucket list.
