About this blog

When I started my rtw trip in Europe in 2004, I originally meant to see both Western and Eastern Europe. It soon became apparent that I'd only have time for Western Europe. It sort of feels like that trip is incomplete and it nags at me. So I'm heading back to finish what I started. I fly into London and will fly down to Greece from there, island hop to Turkey then work my way north through Eastern Europe.
