A Passion for People and Places?
Then we have all certainly come to the right place !
In between trips, VT helps to keep me sane by taking me along on a virtual rollercoaster of other members adventures! I also, now and then, have the pleasant company of some great VT friends for real life adventures too.
Happily chucked in at the deep end for my very first VT meeting/roadtrip in Jan. 2006 - "VT Crazies on a Crazy Road Trip"
Duration: 7 days - 6 countries, 5 VT meetings.
Itinerary: *Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Poland, England
* I was not present at the Finland get together.
If you wish, please take a look at my Europe travelogues where I have documented, as best I could, the 7 day VT Road Trip (also more write-ups, photos & tips in the respective country pages).
The picture here is my favourite from the Road Trip. It is from a quaint little Border Railway Station in a place called Gudogay in the region of Hrodzyenskaya Voblasts, Belarus.
Back Row L to R: Bodx, Rusket, Razmataac, Poons & Raytor
Up front: Cachaseiro
(and hidden away somewhere warm are our VT mascots and sweethearts Backpackermoose & Munga)
Feb/March : Munich, Germany
April : Berlin, Germany
May : Spain (Marbella - 2nd European VT meeting
Visiting also: Ronda & Gibraltar
July : Denmark (Copenhagen Summer VT weekend) & Sweden
September : Bonnie Scotland (4 day road trip with VT Member Rusket followed by 2 days of 2 VT meetings in Glasgow & Edinburgh).
Mid-December : Being blown off the Pier in Brighton (one of VT member Pickledonions bright ideas! ;o).
Firstly to London to meet Poochie (spgood301); Sat/Sun to Brighton
, and then back to London on Monday to soak up the Christmas atmosphere of the City.
Jan: DAO's York Winter Warmer VT Meeting
Mar/Apr: A return to Denmark (Copenhagen & Helsingor) and a day trip to Sweden (Helsinborg)
May: At last will get to Ireland. My Brother and I will be visiting for a family occasion in Limerick, then taking a couple of days to explore and see where the road takes us. Knowing me, more than likely will be the West Coast.
