Done it for the first time from March last year (Spain, Italy, Czech, Germany, France) and it was great, best experience of my life so far. Going again at the end of June although apart from returning to Barcelona I haven't planned much of it yet, just booked my flight and will probably decide on the rest when I'm actually out there because most of my plans before leaving last time ended up changing once I was travelling about anyway. I'm hoping I get to Slovenia this time, I really wanted to last time but always ended up somewhere else. And definitely got to check out other parts of Greece. I don't think I'd enjoy it half as much if I didn't stay in hostels though, I'd probably put the meeting new people and partying above the tourist aspect of it.

Just doing 9 days there and then heading down to Singpaore and then over to Bali again for a week.

If you go to Slovenia you should defo try get to Italy and Croatia on your trip this time. Fantastic places, especially during the summer. Also Montenegro and Albania if you can.

I did go to Rome last time but it was right at the end of my trip and was only for 3 days, so I was already thinking about the trip home at that point really. I'll definitely look into Croatia though, would be good seeing some of the GOT sets over there.

Croatia is stunning. My next trip through Europe (whenever that will be) will be over to Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland.

Ahh that'll be nice. I've always wanted to go to that part of the USA. Are you going to swing over to the west coast or do Grand Canyon at all?

Probably not, we'll only be able to do a maximum of two weeks because of leaving the kids behind etc so I doubt we'd have time

Where is your next stop Ben?

Benjamin 06-05-2015 10:12 AM

Oh no kids, bet you are looking forward to that? :laugh:

My next stop is Japan at the end of the month then down to Bali straight after that.

I'm so excited for Japan. It looks incredible and I have always wanted to go. I won free flights with Qatar airlines and could go anywhere on the routes they fly so decided to fly to Japan then down to Bali.

My brother was living in Hong Kong for 3 years and he traveled to 20 something Asian countries in his time there and Japan was his favourite i think, either there or Mongolia I think
