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. |
|  | 2006 Travels 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.
