After a few months of planning, and some more months waiting for the car (both in Serbian), my girlfriend and me are ready to set off through Europe.
My "practice drive" (with my sister as a "navigator" :) to GUADEC and back (~2000km total) went fine, though with a replacement car.
Main destination is going to be Alicante, Spain, visiting Carlos Perelló Marín, but on the way there and back, we are going to stop by a few cities.
The rough plan is as follows:
| When | Where | What |
|---|---|---|
| Thursday, July 17th |
Belgrade (morning) — Vienna (afternoon) | Driving in the morning, some looking around in the afternoon |
| Friday, 18th | Vienna (morning), drive to Brno (afternoon) | Sightseeing, visiting Miljan |
| Saturday, 19th | Brno to Munich (morning) | Afternoon/evening/sleep-over in Munich |
| Sunday, 20th | Munich to somewhere in France | Driving over Karlsruhe (to avoid Switzerland for which I'd need a separate visa) for most of the day with long breaks (need to go over at least 1000km) |
| Monday, 21st | Somewhere in France to Alicante | Another day of mostly driving: totally missing out on central France for lack of time :(, arrive in Alicante in the evening |
| Tuesday 22nd–Friday 25th | Alicante | Few days of enjoying the beach |
| Saturday 26th | Barcelona | Morning drive to Barcelona, sightseeing the city |
| Sunday 27th | Barcelona | Sightseeing the city |
| Monday 28th | Barcelona—Nice | Early start, evening in Nice |
| Tuesday 29th | Nice, Monte Carlo | Touristy stuff |
| Wednesday 30th | To Venezia | Sightseeing, sleep-over |
| Thursday 31st | To Belgrade | Long drive home over Slovenia and Croatia |
Though, going by car, the entire plan is open for change.
I've figured out where to stay in Vienna, Brno and Alicante, but will gladly accept recommendations for cheap accommodation for rest of the stops :) Any tips on the parking regime and similar won't be wasted either.
