2023

Our first trip to the year has taken us back to Greece. Our plans for the year are less set than in past years. We really want to get to Turkey before we head back towards France. The Earthquake in Turkey made us decide to postpone our planned trip to Turkey and hopefully move it to the fall. We are planning to spend more time in Greece and cross of one of Tons bucket list destinations the island of Crete. We are also planning on heading into Bulgaria and if time allows Romania. Stay tuned to see where we end up for the year.
