I once traveled Europe by car with a friend. Some 8000 kilometers, 13 or 14 countries, 1 month. It was magical.
Will never forget the owner of a small camp in rural Spain who didn’t spoke a word of English and was sooo excited to see foreigners that he fed us homemade grappa basically until we dropped. His treat of course.
Or the random village on the border of France and Belgium where we had a flat and had to ride our longboards into town and mime to people that we need help. They got us a tow truck from 2 villages over on a Sunday. All without us knowing a word of French or them a word of English.
Don’t waste travel time folks. It’s the best part of a vacation.
