I flew into Zurich to get to Liechtenstein so I could visit every country in Europe. After I walked across a country (what a flex!), I spent a night or two in Zurich to get my money’s worth of flying all that way (just over an hour flight) from Amsterdam. I’d been to Swizzy before, […]

I walked across a country! I may have walked on a flat, paved road with sidewalks. It may have been the 6th smallest country in the world. I may have chosen the smallest point to point of the country. Bet you bet your bottom dollar, I walked across Liechtenstein! High five a million angels! I

What’s the longest in advance you’ve made plans, but then cancelled them last minute? Mine is 9 months. Any millennial wish to challenge me? Hold your horses. I didn’t cancel my whole trip to Norway, but I made plans to hike Trolltunga (Trolls Tongue) and I had to cancel that mini adventure. Norway love’s those

This is going to be a patchwork quilt of a post. It’s going to feel itchy, you’ll be confused, and it’s something you should probably just let gather dust in a cupboard. Our route: I have to say, the cat situation in Bulgaria is top. Reasonably well-fed strays everywhere, and some non-strays that we followed

Why are there so many men wearing track suits in Bulgaria? It’s a genuine question, please tell me if you can unravel this mystery. Our route: When I got off the plane in Sofia, Bulgaria, it immediately smelled like I thought Bulgaria would smell, even though I’ve never been there before. Just going to let

Girona in Spain is very Italian, if you ask me. Nobody did, but I share that opinion with everyone I meet. Bit sus. It’s a beaut. Apparently they filmed season 6 GoT here (do we all hate that I used the abbrev.). You can reenact the shame, shame, shame scene till your heart’s content. There
I take 0 credit for that yummy title. Nestled between France and Spain, sits Andorra. Originally, I thought people were mispronouncing some region of Spain that I never heard of. Turns out it’s a country? When I got off the 3 hour bus from Barcelona, I read a sign that the capital, Andorra la Vella,

Barcelona is a treat. The last time I went, I was heading to La Tomatina in Brunol back in 2013. As I typed that I don’t even remember if that’s true. No, it is. Anywho, this time around I wanted to see inside the Sagrada Familia and other Gaudi works because last time I didn’t

I stayed outside of the center at Hyatt Place Krakow. It was a bit of a jaunt into the center, but I needed a name-branded hotel after my spicay, distrusting stay in the Gran Canaria. There was a tram stop right out front of the hotel, but most trams only accept coins in their machines-

When leaving the Warsaw airport, if you want to catch the bus into town, don’t follow the ‘coach’ signs- they lead you to the long distances buses. When I went through the doors at arrivals, there wasn’t clear signage- but I always say that when I don’t pay attention and put 2% effort into looking
