14 travel ideas for 2014
Tomorrow morning we fly to Finland. We will be on the road in southern Finland for a week and I hope the snow will accompany me there (so far it has been unusually mild for the time of year in the south of Finland). We will celebrate New Year’s Eve in Helsinki (tips are welcome) and start 2014 in travel mode.
More destinations for 2014 are already buzzing around wildly in my head. Even though I’m not the bucket list type – things always turn out differently than planned anyway – I’ve put together 14 travel ideas for the coming year. Where do you want to go?
1. Slovenia – Picnic by the romantic Lake Bled and then head to the Slovenian Mediterranean coast
Update: Mission accomplished –> Here are more pictures of the little blue gem
2. Belgium – Eating Chocolate, Waffles and French Fries Comma
Update: Mission accomplished –> I’ve found waffle heaven #yeah!
3. Norway – View the breathtaking fjord landscape from Preikestolen
Update: Not really finished, because the Preikestolen didn’t fit into the itinerary at the end but never mind! Norway is beautiful everywhere.
4. Scotland – Finding Nessie
5. Sardinia – Swim in the blue-green Mediterranean Sea
6. Comer See – George Clooney aufspüren (what else? ;))
Update: Mission quasi completed – the date was postponed but I fell in love
with Varenna
7. Tuscany – Start a Vespa road trip through the hill towns of Tuscany from Florence
Update: Mission quasi completed – I was in Florence (and that was a bit of a disaster) and I was also in Tuscany (and discovered a place for special moments there), but the one with the Vespa road trip… next time ;)
8. Visit Croatia – The Whitewater Wonderland – Plitvice Lakes National Park
9. Budapest – Stroll through the golden pearl on the Danube
Update: Mission accomplished –> Click here for the tips for Budapest.
10. Regensburg and Quedlingburg – Marvel at medieval masterpieces
Update: Mission partly completed – I visited
a not at all dusty but youthful, lively Regensburg
11. Hainich National Park – Spot a wildcat from the treetop path
12. Provence – Soar through lavender fields
13. Ticino – Hike along the Maggia and jump into the cool water in between
14. Albula/Bernina Landscape – Chugging along the Rhaetian Railway on the Unesco route to Tirano
Update: Mission accomplished – the 122.3 km UNESCO World Heritage Site has been driven once (we are still practising on the panorama)
