Incredible gallery! Looks like an amazing year, with lots of variety.
Omg these pictures are beautiful captures. Some of these countries are on my bucket list. I hope 2018 even brings you more adventures.
Thank you very much 🙂 I wish the same to you. So far, 2018 started off quite well so I am looking forward to my first travels for the year.
Amazing pictures! I liked picture no. 6 and your African pictures best, but you also raised my interest in Carcassonne. Congratulations to surpassing the 100-country-threshold and all the best for 2018. My first trip will lead me to Penang, Malaysia. Where will yours take you?
Thanks for the nice comment! I absolutely love Malaysia… all the amazing food options 🙂 my first trip will take me to Bilbao, Spain next weekend and the first intercontinental trip will be to Cape Verde at the beginning of February.
