My Favorite Road Trips
I’ve been road-tripping all over Europe for the last few years in all sorts of ways. When it makes sense, I rent a car because I love the flexibility, but I also love traveling by train, ferry, and bus because public transportation is fantastic in most of Europe! If all else fails, I’ll walk it… 🙈
Here, you’ll find detailed road trip itineraries, my favorite places and routes, and practical tips to help you plan your next trip. If you’re overwhelmed or short on time, I can help plan your trip for you!
