Sad that my trip around Central and Eastern Europe is coming to an end today. From the gelaterias of Rome to the thermal baths of Budapest. Just under 5 weeks, 8 countries, 18 destinations, 15 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, pizza, sorbetti, Weiss beer, wiener schnitzel, goulash, bread dumplings (avoid!!), probably about 500km of walking, mostly on Achilles-rupturing cobblestones or up steps to one of the gazillion look-out tours, and importantly lots of banter. Europe is an immense continent. You don't have to move very far to hear a completely different language, see different architecture, experience wildly varying cultures and customs, eat different cuisine, and talk to completely different people. I used not appreciate having such a vast library of travel on our doorstep.
I do now.
Couldn't have said it better! Thanks James S.!
