Our travel planning – our tips

With every trip we gain new experiences. Partly about travelling in general but sometimes also about travelling in a certain country. We are always curious and grateful when friends and acquaintances tell us about their experiences before we travel to a new country. Sometimes because it has really useful tips and sometimes because it is simply exciting to see how others experience a country.

Here we want to share some of our experiences and tips with you.
Maybe one or another contribution will help you. Or maybe you have some super useful tips and experiences that you would like to share with us and our travel community.
