Travels In Europe 2004
In and around Europe
In July 2004 I embarked on a two-month solo journey through Europe. The trip was one I had been planning since I was in High School. For years I had been collecting travel brochures and reading books on sites in Europe I had hoped to one day visit. I had never imagined that I would complete the trip alone, but I am glad I did. It was an experience of a lifetime.Â
