Some of the wonderful things I see while I'm on my travels.
Greece
Greece is a superb place to visit overland. Besides the wonderful food, slow pace of life, welcoming people and the most amazing scenery, there's also so much sights and history to see and visit. I entered Greece at the North-west border. First stopping at Ioannina for a few days, which is a nice town next...Continue reading→
Albania
Albania and Montenegro are countries I've always wanted to visit - and I wasn't disappointed. Besides welcoming people, there is also so much wonderful scenery to see, with mountains as far as the eye can see. Entering Albania from Montenegro was easy. I only had to stop to get insurance for the bike. I headed...Continue reading→
Bosnia and Montenegro
Arriving at Split in Croatia, I decided to carry on into Bosnia - heading for Mostar. The last time I was here the bridge had gone, but it had been rebuilt perfectly. Its a nice and quiet town, and a perfect place to explore the countryside. After Mostar I headed over to Sarajevo, finding a...Continue reading→
Umbria
Travelling down to Umbria, I stayed at a campsite next to Lago Trasimeno, which is a huge lake in the middle of Italy. It's also central to all the things I wanted to see. While there I rode around the lake, visiting the towns of Castiglione de Lago and Chiusi. I also spent a day...Continue reading→
Northern Italy
Another day was spent visiting Verona. It is a beautiful city and there is more than enough architecture to keep anyone happy. The Castelvecchio was my first port of call and I wasn't disappointed, as besides being able to walk around this ancient beauty of a castle, the museum is excellent, containing enough art and...Continue reading→

Hello Irelend…
I was starting another trip again, this time catching the ferry from Scotland to Ireland and then from Ireland over to France. The weather was nice so I decided to stay a few days in Wicklow and Donegal. It really is a nice part of the world, especially around Wicklow, so I'll be coming back...Continue reading→
Wandering in Stockholm
Back to Stockholm, this time with my Fuji camera and some manual lenses, the 7 Artisans 18, 35 and 85mm lenses. Fuji XPRO-1
France – Carcassonne
The weather was starting to turn so I headed north and back into France - heading for Carcassonne. On the way I rode over the southern part of the Pyrenees - which was stunningly beautiful. Carcassonne is a huge castle that was built on top of a rocky hill over two thousand years ago. The...
Spain – Barcelona and Girona
Leaving Corsica, I caught the overnight ferry to Marseille and headed south towards Spain. I ended up in a town called Blaines - which was close enough to travel into Barcelona and also far enough away as not to be too touristy. Barcelona is a huge city and I spent two days wandering around the...Continue reading→
