When we go on a road trip from Sweden through the countries in the south, Germany has been our favourite country to explore. We would spend many stops and overnights in the country rather than rushing to drive through it. Although we plan our route, we sometimes stay overnight in a place we don’t know […]
A Scary Drive Through Andorra
We had been talking about going to Andorra every time a conversation about places to visit would come up. But it was awful timing when we finally did. It’s not bad to go on a road trip in the winter. I actually like the view of the snow from a moving car. It was the […]
A Resting Place On The Hill
