Travel overview
The eastern part of Europe is part of the EU, nowadays. I can't imagine a better place
to see that Europe stands for variety
.
Slovakia has a bustling energy: everywhere, you see houses made into shops and restaurants. And it has
a beautiful nature. Hungary is champion in delicious food and wine; the country is
flat for the most
part, but as a compensation, birds like it a lot.
Romania is a country with which we fell in love, and I think every motorcycle rider will feel the
same, once having ridden there. It is incredibly beautiful, with completely preserved Middle-age towns,
many beautiful mountaineous regions, and a landscape, formed by farmers, on a small s
cale, that has
a loveliness that you won't find anywhere else.
In august 2006, we rode through Romania on a Yamaha Tricker and a BMW R1100GS.

In the beginning of September, 1997, I had to be in Berlin anyway, so Ernst and me decided to go together, on my good old loyal Bumble Bee. This plan didn't succeed entirely, because Ernst's PC caused problems (as his PC always does), and he had to finish a booklet for his Baggerraggerrij (as he always has), so I left by plane to Berlin, and Ernst would follow the next day.
After a while, he did appear, and together we rode through Poland and Slovakia.
