David & Julie’s Balkan Adventure
We are off again. Time once more for our European sojourn. Where to this year? We have already covered a vast portion of Europe, yet we are still discovering new places to go. Thanks to Joanne Lumley’s TV series The Silk Road, we though we would head to Eastern Europe, in particular the Balkan States. So far we have booked as far as Sofia in Bulgaria. After that maybe on to Romania then Greece, hopefully Corfu, across to Albania. After that, who knows? First up though, we land in Paris then train down to Marseille for a few days. From there we head to our first Balkan destination, Sofia.
