Introduction Traveling to and from European countries has never been easier. With stop over flights in countries of your choice, these stop overs enable you to have a break from what is essentially a whole day flight from Australia. Given the fact that Europe is only slightly larger than Australia in total land mass size, getting around will prove to be much more difficult. Your average sized Falcon or Commodore equivalent in Europe, is the Fiesta and other small Fiat style cars.
Sightseeing Europe is well known for its captivating Caribbean, Greek Isles, historic buildings, ancient art and classy civilisations. From skiing the alps and drinking wine in classic vineyards, to the home of Michael Schumacher and all things Ferrari, Europe has it all to see and do. The ritzy Monaco, a sure visitation [though I wouldn't recommend purchasing anything] is also a must see. Prague, the Czech Republic capital, is just a truly beautiful experience, where words can not bring true justice to just how stunning the city is. My must see country destinations are as follows: Spain Interesting Information Europe is the land of many ethnic cultures with common roots of Christian and Jewish religions and a savage heritage of war. For hundreds of years Europeans have longed for the unity and Pax Romana of the ancient Roman Empire with a common currency, law, borderless trade and language. Only recently through the European Union and European Commission has such a dream finally been realized. In an uncommon era of peace and prosperity, borders have been relaxed and a common currency, rules and regulations have been adopted making it far easier to travel through the Old European cities particularly in Eastern Europe with freedom and wonderful awe celebrating the wonderful diversity of cultures preserved and working peacefully together for common prosperity. Now is the time to celebrate these new found freedoms and reach out and travel to rediscover your neighbors and their heritage. Links
Experiential Travel: Things to Do in Europe One of the ways I fell into the travel writing biz was that I found myself returning to Europe again and again to volunteer on archaeological projects. I ate and slept locally and interacted with the natives, who filled my head with story ideas. It changed my life. Anyone with free time and some cash can do it. If you're a student of archaeology, for example, you can excavate the ruins at Ostia Antica (pictures), the ancient port of Rome, for example. If you think travel writing would make a fine life, you can write your travel memoirs while staying in an 18th century château in France's Loire Valley. Imagine living in a château, drinking some of France's finest wine, and hobnobbing with writers before descending into the harsh writer's reality, the "cheep booze fueling angst and despair" thing. (Don't know the Loire Valley? See our Loire Valley Map.) You don't have to leave America's shores to participate in the writing dream. You New Yorkers can take a travel writing class taught by the celebrated writer and foreskin chaser David Farley, author of An Irreverent Curiosity: In Search of the Church's Strangest Relic in Italy's Oddest Town. Don't just think of Europe as a place with a tolerance for nude beaches. There's more to do than taking your clothes off.

Ok, so you're driving from Tuscany to Switzerland through the Valle d'Aosta and just as you cross the border with Piemonte you notice on a map that there's a town named Pont-Saint-Martin. Being a namesake, you turn the car and head there for lunch. It's Sunday, so there might be no open tables in the restaurants since Sunday is the traditional day for families to go out and have a feast that lasts for hours and hours. But we lucked out. We not only got a table, we splurged on some fish. "Some fish!" An understatement. You might think we had stumbled upon a wedding and we were photographing a heaping platter of Pesce alla Griglia meant for a whole banquet table. Two slabs of salmon, a couple filets of sole two skewers of calamari, six prawns, two gray mullets, whole. For two, mind you. St. Martin is known for his ability to trick the devil like he did at the humpback bridge that gives Pont-Saint-Martin its name. Perhaps he multiplies fishes as well. What two travelers on a summer's eve could eat such a platterful?

Permalink | Comment | Email this A New Museum of Failure in Austria As economically depressed countries vie for the last tourist with money to spend on travel, I imagine boardrooms and bars full of folks trying to figure out unique tourist draws, noteworthy and odd. Perhaps if you shared my vision, you'd expect Museums to start popping from unused soil like those red poppies in May--and that by now Tourist Attractions and the neon that marks them would have covered everything on earth, just as you might think that UNESCO has named every last corner of The World a World Heritage Site. But let's focus on Austria. If the Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum in Thal, Austria didn't make the tourists come a runnin', then dang if they didn't try something even grander and with pretty much the same theme. I'm talking about the Failed Inventions Museum in beautiful, downtown Herrnbaumgarten. Certainly you'd give up that villa in Tuscany to see "a bristleless toothbrush for people with no teeth," wouldn't you? Those Austrians are very clever people.
