Border crossing – Croatia.

Posted on August 29, 2020August 28, 2020by Kelvin Collins

Border crossing – Croatia. So many border crossings happen by motorway. It’s boring. But it’s easy.  It was slow entering Croatia, but given it’s a border into the comfort blanket of the EU it was no worse than expected. There were a few questions. A guard took a quick look into the back of the […]

Serbia by camper van – try it!

Posted on August 22, 2020August 21, 2020by Kelvin Collins

Coming down the mountain. The roads here are nowhere near as bad as we’d been led to believe. When we lived on Beech Road in Manchester we were used to worse, I’d put them on a par with Italy and Greece. After two nights outside the ski resort of Kopaonik we filled ArchieVan’s tanks, and […]

Suddenly the van, which hasn’t missed a beat for sixty six thousand miles, started to stutter and loose power. We had about […]

Plovdiv. Bulgaria’s finest?

Posted on August 1, 2020July 30, 2020by Kelvin Collins

Bears and other beauties. Last week we left you at the Dancing Bears Sanctuary, high in the Rila Mountains above Belista and about to start one of the great drives of our lives. It’s a slow start. The first few kms were on a track, and when the tarmac started there wasn’t enough room to […]

Shifting perceptions. Bulgaria.

Posted on July 25, 2020July 25, 2020by Kelvin Collins

In which Bulgaria grows on me. I may learn to love it. Mission Kromidovo. We were still on Crete. Minty was researching various traveller groups, getting a feel for how the virus would affect our onward journey. Almost as a throwaway line she read “Do you fancy running a campsite in Bulgaria?” After exchanging a […]
