Berlin, in a converted LDV Campervan, in glorious sunshine – had we really made it here in one piece, had the van really made it here? And was that really sun? The monstorous rainclouds that had shortened our stay in Warsaw were now a cause of constant worry.

Beer Festival in Germany
Germany is famed for many things… the industrial heart of Europe, BMW and Mercedes cars, umpah bands and beer.
Now if you take the alst two of those, add in some local patriotism, a massive tent and super-women able to carry atleast 6 litres of beer at a time then you have the most German of [...]
Be back soon!
Hello readers!
Well I’m officially home now, unfortunately my laptop died after berghausen, but – never fear! I have all the updates written “old skool typing” and as soon as my laptop comes back next week I will update you on the delights of Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy and returning home!
Berghausen – the longest castle in Europe
Our drive took us towards a place called Berghausen, and – with two hours to spare befoere our couchsurfing host arrived, Luke and I fired up the Sat-Nav and took a look at what was about. “Photographic spot Berghausen” was all that was available so off we went down some of the narrowest lanes ever [...]
It’s not going to go up here is it?
Luke and I have been using Couchsurfing.org for a few meet ups and one overnight stay in Sweden, so now it was time we thought we would put it to the test and stay for two nights near the town of Berghausen.
Our drive out of Berchtesgaden had taken us over some of the most incredible [...]
Berchtesgaden
If you visit anywhere in Germany then this place should be it, forget the beerfest, forget the wall, forget Berlin, come to Berchtesgaden.
The area of Berchtesgadenerland is a national park, and rightly so. A twisting, near death defying road meanders round the foothills of the alps and eventually drops you into Berchtesgaden, from there it [...]
Prien am Chiemsee
Pronounced Pree-en am Kim-tsey.
Or something of the sort.
I often believe that in a past life I was Bavarian. In fact I often believe that in this life I am still Bavarian. Bavaria is that large south-eastern part of Germany that everybody usually associates with beer, Lederhosen and sausages – and they would be right.
But there [...]
The LDV Campervan trip around Europe continued
Hello guys and girls!
Apologies for the lack of updates. It has been quite hard to find internet and I can never remember the password for this website to upload stuff at an internet cafe, might change the password soon!
So I am now in Hungary. Which in itself is incredible, the van has done over 6,000 [...]
Rain
It’s not what most people hope for when they go wandering off travelling, yet it is an essential part of any experience.
Yes – as a Englishman I honestly could tell you whether rain is wet or dry – heavy or light (not as in how much rain, but as in whether each drop is heavy [...]
