We ran to far north, and out of Albania, so we crossed the border into Montenegro, the ninth country we have visited during the European Empty Nest Adventure. The crossing was smooth, and in no time we were back on the road, and heading to a grocery store. It was a nice store, and we…

Our second camping experience in Albania was just up the road about 30km. It didn’t take us long, and it also put a third of our way to the northern boarder of small country. After all our errands and traffic getting out of Tirane, we arrived as the sun dipped below the harbor. We were…

Since we arrived in Albania on Wednesday, the weather has not been welcoming, rain and a chill in the air. We were keeping in the camper and trying to catch up on things. Saturday, the weather finally broke, and while not completely sunny and warm, the sky was not dripping on us. We did some…

We woke up in Cisternino, and moved slowly to get Holly ready for some more kilometers to get back to Bari. On our way we had seen several of these structures that Kasey looked up and found they are called Trullis. Not going to try to describe them, she took plenty of pictures. Eventually, and…

When we knew this trip was going to be a realty, one of our new goals was to meet a traveling couple that helped inspire this adventure. Andre & Lisa have a website We Will Nomad, and roaming around they have certainly done. I got an email while in Villanova that some our messages to…

While we had seen the sea while driving, Kasey really wanted some beach time, and we were passing by Gargano National Park, so it seemed like a good detour for her to get her feet wet. It was a winding, sometimes tight, route to get to the national park. We made it down the dirt…

We were on our way to San Marino, the third smallest country in Europe, behind Monaco and Vatican City, with no idea what to expect. If we were ever told about this tiny country in school, we had both forgotten. San Marino is also on a mountain, like a lot of Italian Towns with a…

So after a day in Venice, we are heading south down the east side of Italy, the back of the boot, if you will. Our first stop was at a Farm Camp south and just outside of Venice. I was greeted by a friendly, English Speaking, host and we got checked in, and led to…

We arrived in Marostica while it was dark. It did make it a bit more of a challenge, and after passing a castle, and making a U-Turn, we found the parking lot, just not exactly the space. We did put ourselves next to another camper, but we were more parked among cars. Just at the…

Our entry into Italy didn’t give us a whole lot of a chance to look around. We left Switzerland and drove right into the city of Como. There were remains of a border crossing, the increase in urban activity really told us we were in a new place. Como was bigger than we thought, and…
