Europe is a continent which attracts over 480 million international visitors per year. This is more than 50% of the global market. 7 of the 10 most visited countries in the world are in Europe. Sure I am biased, being born in Europe (Holland). However a well preserved heritage, open borders and a very good infrastructure makes visiting Europe very easy. A few hours travel will get you into a new culture and another country. Europe is also the smallest continent in land surface. For us arriving from Africa, Middle East and from Asia it was a convienient continent to leave our truck behind when flying home for a few months.

However we did Explore Northern Europe, Russia and Iceland in winter which was a amazing experience. Other cities we visited during our brief stays in Europe;  Brugge in Belgium, Paris in France, Andorra in the Pyrenees, Barcelona, Benidorm and Malaga in Spain, Holland, French Riviera, Venice, Amalfie Coast, Rome, Concentration camp Auschwitz, The Munich October Fest in Germany, Gibraltar, Austria just to name a few. Europe is full of history, culture, interesting countries, lively cities, and beautiful countryside and friendly inhabitants. Europe is on our bucket list and once we have finalized Central and North America around 2024 it will be our next and last destination and the end of our around the world tour which began in 2004.

A few hours travel will get you into a new culture and another country. Europe is also the smallest continent in land surface. For us this time it was only the place where our truck was parked and we wanted to see West Africa.

Enroute we stopped in Brugge in Belgium, Paris in France, Andorra in the Pyranees, Barcelona, Benidorm and Malaga in Spain. They are all very interesting countries with lively cities, beautiful countryside and friendly inhabitants. Just before crossing into Morocco we visited Gibraltar the British colony also known as the Rock. It sits at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea, and is bordered by Spain to the north. The people of Gibraltar are British citizens.
