Slovenia

I blinked and I had passed through Slovenia. In the short time I was there I loved the people and it was beautiful riding.

Italy

I’ve probably travelled more in Italy over the years than any other country and I love it. The country is diverse with beautiful mountains in the North, coastline flanking the east and west of the country and Sicily to the south.

Switzerland

Switzerland is great. The scenery is stunning with pastures, mountains and blue skies. The Swiss are very sociable and seem relaxed and outgoing. Switzerland feels rich but they don’t show off about their wealth. I like the Swiss.

The Germans are very helpful and polite but seem slightly reserved for […]

Luxembourg

Luxemberg is a small well kept country with everything ‘in order’ from the roads, houses, gardens and towns. There wasn’t anything I disliked about it but it was too sterile for me.

I’ve only ever ‘passed through’ Belgium so my only comment is that the roads and towns I have passed through have never inspired me, it’s always been quite bland and the roads poor in condition to those countries surrounding them.

France

I arrived in France stressed so my brief experience wasn’t representative of previous visits. I know it’s common in England for people to knock the French but I’ve always really liked them. They are honest, friendly, passionate and not shy with their opinions. I like the fact they strive for better working conditions and don’t […]
