Flying Halfway Around The World For What?
The world is a huge place, full of diverse people, places and cultures, and I for one, want to see as much of it as possible. I’ve written about travel in the past, and why I think that…
European Escapade Day 25 – Amsterdam to London
So that’s it then. Twenty five days travelling through Europe to come full circle and finish back where it all began in London. Nothing eventful happened today, but I thought I’d write one last post to sum up…
European Escapade Day 24 – Amsterdam
Amsterdam is another very unique city in Europe. The canals and buildings make it look very pretty, but it also has a quirkiness and an energy to it, especially at night. Our first stop this morning was the…
European Escapade Day 23 – Rhine Valley to Amsterdam
The Netherlands are so different to the scenery we’ve been travelling through recently – swapping mountains for the lowlands. Still very pretty though! We didn’t have a long drive day, so there was plenty of time to experience…
European Escapade Day 22 – Swiss Alps to Rhine Valley

European Escapade Day 20 – Austrian Tyrol to Swiss Alps
Today was another coach day where we crammed in plenty of other things on the same day. First of all, we stopped off at Swarovski Crystal World. Their collection of artworks made of crystals is both amazing and…
European Escapade Day 19 – Austrian Tyrol
I think today has been the laziest day of this trip so far for me. I didn’t sign up for the optional mountain biking or paragliding, so I had the day entirely free, and as we’re out in…
European Escapade Day 18 – Munich to Austrian Tyrol
Whoo, what a hectic day! We left Munich this morning to travel to our special stopover in an Austrian Gasthof in Hopfgarten. The scenery here is absolutely stunning, towering mountains and lush valleys below, which makes for a…
European Escapade Day 17 – Vienna to Munich
The drive from Vienna to Munich isn’t as long as some of our other coach days, so we managed to fit some other activities in too. Before reaching Munich we stopped at Dachau concentration camp. I’ve heard stories…
