Lake Louise, Canada

Are you like me? You like to travel and take pictures? Active holidays is your type of holiday? Then you are in the right place.

For the past 7 years I've been traveling the world and I've done some amazing trips which I want to share with you. After going through 3 cameras and taking 65,000+ pictures I've learned a lot.

Travel is not easy, when you chose your destination you need to decide where to stay, what to see, decide if you need to rent a car or use public transport. As part of this blog I will write about my personal experience, as well as detailed plans of trips I took and I hope that might help you in your own planning. Of course plenty of pictures will be shared so that you know what to expect from each destination.

Ireland has been my home for the past 12 years and I've seen every corner of it. From Northern Ireland's Belfast to Giant's Causeway, to Republic's of Ireland Wilde Atlantic Way which is a magnificent coast road - from Donegal to Galway to Kerry and Cork - it has it all. And yes there are 2 Ireland :) in case you didn't know that.

Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland that is simply known as Ireland.

Ireland is a beautiful country and, to cover it all, I will talk about each province individually in future post.

Giant's Causeway, Northern Ireland

But that's just the tip of the Iceberg. As par of my travel I visited 4 continents with vast majority of the travel being in Europe and just parts of Asia, Africa and North America.

In the upcoming series of posts I will cover 5 road trips that I would strongly recommend to anyone considering visiting any of the locations mentioned below.

SriLanka

Starting with the 1000km trip trough the jungle of SriLanka which is an Amazing and Near Death experience all at the same time. With 6 key location and 3 weeks to spare, I traveled from south to midlands and then to the North of the country. From vastly different landscape to general change in culture and religion across the island, SriLanka is an amazing place to visit.

Mirissa Fisherman, SriLanka

Romania

Crown Jewel of Eastern Europe, home of Transylvania and Dracula :) with phenomenal capital city Bucharest and The Best Road In The World - Transfăgărășan, Romania is spectacular location that you can visit time and time again. However, if you're looking for a single stint, the trip below is a must ! 700km of beautiful cities, mountains, lakes and castles.

Transfăgărășan, Romania

Canada

Breathtaking is the first word that comes to mind when I think of Canada. If you ever wanted or considered RV holiday Canada is perfect place to do it. My 1200km drive from Calgary to Vancouver was probably most spectacular and diverse trip I've ever done in my life. Jaw dropping view at every turn, always present wildlife and big open road are something that I will always remember.

Banff, Canda

Sicily - Italy

From ancient cities, to mountains to sandy beach, ohh and have I mentioned the Volcano? Mount Etna which you can go and visit. Sicily is a lovely little island with amazing culture and one of the tastiest food you will every try in your life. Even thought I've only done 400km I saw more than I ever hopped for.

Mount Etna, Sicily

Mallorca - Spain

The most reliable European holiday destination. If you don't know where to go next year, if you're not sure if you want active or lazy holiday, well you can't go wrong with Mallorca (Majorca). Even though it's very small, Mallorca is a very diverse island with plenty to see, and with 60km from one end to the other you can get your rest by the pool and do a day trip to the mountains all in one day.

Palma City, Spain

City Breaks

What if you don't have a week or two to spare, what if you found those cheap flights to a European city that you always thought of visiting: Paris, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Berlin, Oslo etc. As part of this blog I will share with you my experiences from some of the most iconic destinations in Europe. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, with very little ugly as Europe is beautiful and full of history.

Summary

I hope you enjoyed my first post on Steemit, it is also my very first post on any social media. In the upcoming weeks I will share in detail each of this 5 road trip destinations . Please let me know in the comments if you like me to start with any particular location, let me know what would you like to see (logistics, cost, hotels etc.).
