Euro Road Trip – France, Switzerland, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium

I planned to do a road trip in my Porsche Boxster in the summer of 2024. Having been driving for nearly 20 years and owning many 'driver focused' cars, one thing I have never done is to take one of my cars over to mainland Europe. Most likely due to the all-encompassing anxiety of a breakdown that comes with driving 20year old performance cars and hot hatches.

Madeira – Portugal

We opted to visit Madeira; 'The Hawaii of Europe'. Simple enough to book flights, accommodation and a hire car to explore the small island in the Atlantic, just 500 miles off the coast of Morocco. The place seems to be getting quite the buzz on Instagram, due to its year round good weather and dramatic scenery. I was hoping to pick up my camera again and see some of the impressive landscapes.

Kyoto & Osaka – Japan

After spending 4 days in the Mount Fuji area, we travelled via shinkansen to Kyoto, the ancient capital city of Japan. The city has a wealth of shrines and temples as well as old fashioned small wooden Japanese buildings. We did a variety of activities in Kyoto and maybe felt like we could have spent a few extra days in the area.

Finally, after 3 years of waiting we were able to take our dream trip to Japan. Postponed since April 2020 due to the Covid 19 pandemic and with Japan being one of the last countries to fully open its borders for tourism all I can say is it was really worth the wait!
