“The stone city”; a town with stone roofs, an epic mountaintop fort, charming little streets and a hell of a lot of hills. We have been well and truly charmed by Albania now although their foodMeer informatie

First time in Albania and I feel immediately transported back to Laos. It’s the poor man’s Greece on the coast. Not much to see in this town but nice view and an old abandoned monastery. ExcitedMeer informatie

Toured the beautiful island of Corfu. Hundreds of miles of beach, cliff and olive grove. Not a bad place to spend a few days. Greek food is bloody delicious too.

Boy do they love Gaudi here. The gridded city is full of hidden secrets, most of which I didn’t uncover. In fact, they are so well hidden I don’t really even know they exist. A nice night ofMeer informatie

Two thousand years of history rolled up into a somewhat lacklustre city. The Basilica and Cathedral were very nice, as was the giant park. Good food and nice walks but definitely not as pretty or niceMeer informatie

A history of conquest, inquisition and war. Madrid is a maze of historic buildings, shopping centres and cafes. I can’t say it’s been my favourite city but it’s definitely interesting! ArguablyMeer informatie
