42 Years On The Road: Island Hopping In Polynesia

Polynesia
Image
Island hopping in Polynesia was a dream-come-true for us. We had been planning it since 2021 , but the timing was never right for travelling two months on the high seas without Internet and phone . Now we were able to do it and it was sheer luxury! Polynesian Islands are known for beaches and popular destinations for snorkeling and watching marine life. We covered some parts of Hawaii, Samoa, Fiji, Tonga and French Polynesia as well as Cook Islands, Niue and Kiribati.

Visiting Andorra, The Last Country in Europe For Us

Andorra
Image
Andorra was the last country in Europe for us to visit. The only way to get there is either through Spain or France. A 3-4-hour bus trip on a serpentine road was not tempting, nor travelling in Spain. We did it through Toulouse, France using Andbus. Now we can proudly say that we have been in all European countries and it took less than 20 years on the road!

Why visit Prague?

Husova, 110 00 Praha 1-Staré Město, Czechia
Image
If you want to admire romantic bridges, go to Paris. If you want to do window shopping, head to Champs-Elysees and Galeries Lafayette Haussmann. For panoramic views, take a lift to Eiffel tower. For the best rated beer, drink at one of Belgium’s monastic breweries. For buying a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes, London is your first choice.

Typical French parking in the middle of the road and a lucky last minute escape before the police toes the car away. One would expect him to be happy but the guy looks annoyed.

Corsicans don’t leave the French cold. Some people recommended the island for us warmly, while others advised to avoid it. We wanted to see ourselves what to think about this small, separatist island and its trigger-happy inhabitants.
