ANSWERS
I've always been a serial traveller, but I used to buy package tours from reputable tour operators only. So I was taken care of from start to finish. However, last summer, I became obsessed with the idea of taking a road trip. I wanted to make the most of my holiday time, so I wanted to have a multi-destination trip. Of course, I didn't wanted to travel alone. So I invited 2 of my friends to join me. I was excited and scared at the same time. First of all, we created a trip itinerary based on our preferences and budget. Then we rented a van, took our luggage, tents, sleeping bags, food and water and hit the road.
It was a really enjoyable journey. We enjoyed the scenery along the way. There were stretches of long winding hairpins, sections with many switchbacks, great coastal roads, mountain tunnels, spectacular bridges, and some of the most breathtaking mountain passes.
It was an adventurous journey as well. Once we had to deviate from the route because the road was washed away by floods. As a result, we found a nice secluded beach where we decided to stay for a few days. It was a spontaneous decision. And it was worth it.
Also, we saw ancient castles and fortresses. We visited a vineyard and tasted wine.
It was both romantic and adventurous. And one of the most important things is that it was a very comfortable journey as we stopped whenever and wherever we wanted, we could move as fast or as slowly as we wanted. And more importantly, we could take nearly as much luggage as we needed.
