9.1. 20:53I wanted to sleep longer today, but I guess my body is used to the rhythm during the week, so I woke up early anyway. But I enjoyed a slow morning before I finally packed up my stuff and left. Originally, my plan was to go straight to Valladolid, and then afterwards to Salamanca,... Continue Reading →
5.1. 20:05Tonight was horrible. Unfortunately, I was only able to sleep for about two hours. This was due to the fact that the room in my accommodation was right next to the stairs, and every time someone walked up and down the stairs, it woke me up, and even when people spoke outside of the...

4.1. 20:24Where do I start? It's hard. It's already Day 4 of my road trip, and this is my first diary entry. You're wondering why? I don't know. Lately, I feel down. I'm not sure what it is. I've been feeling for a while now that I'm blocked somehow. But I feel like I'm getting... Continue Reading →
26.12. 22:31I wasn't lucky yesterday with the Polar lights. The forecast predicted less than 5% chance, so I didn't get up at night. Today, I drove to a very small town before heading to my next destination. It was behind mountains, and the drive there offered incredible views. One place looked like I had arrived...

23.12. 17:27I feel weird. This morning, I arrived in Iceland. The airport was very small, and if I thought Norway was expensive, I was wrong. There was a bus to the city centre (Flybus) for almost 30 Euros or public transport bus fo 15 Euros, but the latter only comes around every two hours on... Continue Reading →
16.12. 20:12My time in Vilnius was short, but even though I was lacking sleep after my adventurous arrival, I walked to explore the city centre after work. It's a lovely little place with beautiful buildings. As my accommodation was quite a distance outside the centre and I didn't have much time, I used public transport.... Continue Reading →
12.12. 18:50It's been two hectic days, so where do I start? It already feels ages ago that I left Lviv, so it's hard for me to believe it's only been the day before yesterday. Considering everything that I went through in two days, you might understand. When I left Lviv, I informed my accommodation in... Continue Reading →
3.12. 21:11Where do I start? I've been busy those last two days. Yesterday I met an American guy in the hostel and he joined me in visiting the famous Bran castle. It was a really nice castle, but for me personally, there was too much made-up stuff about the whole Dracula thing and it was... Continue Reading →
29.11. 21:34Another day done and dusted. I enjoyed another slow morning as it is my last day off for this week. For the first time of this road trip I took public transport to the city centre. I walked through the old town to my first stop: The National Museum of Romanian History. I was... Continue Reading →
26.11. 21:26Today was very adventurous. Last night, I was informed that my Airbnb in Kosovo for today got cancelled, so I had to adjust my plans. I found a different accommodation in Serbia, close to the border, and decided to only visit Kosovo for a day trip. My internet plan does not include Macedonia or... Continue Reading →
21.11. 20:57Today was the first day of my trip that was less active. Before I work I went to a bakery and had breakfast. I also prepared my clothes for washing, as I'm planning to do that at my next destination, Thessaloniki. After I finished work, I walked around Igoumenitsa and discovered a few cute... Continue Reading →
14.11. 22:38Before I left, I set the goal in my mind to do 10.000 steps per day while I travelled because I wouldn't be able to work out. I was worried though that on the days I'd have to work, it might become difficult for me. Well, today was the first day I had to... Continue Reading →
12.11. 21:01This morning, I left Bihac and made my way to Sarajevo. The four and a half hour drive was absolutely amazing. The beautiful scenery and landscape I saw is exactly what I was looking forward to. Only the last hour was on the freeway, the rest was through the marvellous countryside. I never would...

11.11. 20:04I still can’t believe that I finally left my home. Yesterday morning, I woke up in my apartment, and today I’m three countries away. It’s weird to think about it. How easy it is for me to adapt. The last few weeks were all about preparing for my departure. I had to • sort... Continue Reading →
