I’m not one for New Year’s Resolutions; I think if someone needs improved or changed or done, don’t wait until January to put it onto your to do list! However, I have several items on my agenda for Euro-wonderful travel this year and I’m excited to share it with you. Maybe they’ll give you some travel inspiration, or maybe I’ll see you there.

Navigating Norway

I love the Nordic and Scandinavian countries and Norway is the only one I’ve missed. I plan on visiting the cities of Bergen and Olso, as well as do some serious hiking. Places like the preachers pulpit (look mum, no guardrail!) and the Kjeragbolten, a huge boulder wedged between to cliff faces, are high on my list.

Siesta in Spain

Can you believe in Spain I’ve only been to Barcelona? I’d like to see Madrid and Bilbao, as well as do some walking in the hills in the north. Nevermind the copious amounts of sangria and tapas I’ll be downing while on tour!

Irish Invasion

My mum is coming back over again next year and we’ll be taking our touring skills to Ireland. I know Dublin pretty well, so we’ll be exploring a few more rural regions, and I suspect she’ll want to pick up some Waterford Crystal. You’ll have to subscribe to the RSS feed or email on the blog to find out if we kiss the blarney stone or not!

You’d think that was enough for one year, but rest assured, I’ve got plenty of other trips up my sleeve. Stay tuned.

What are your Euro-fabulous travel plans this year?
