I love immersing myself in a new culture and getting lost a little too. I don't like to have an itinerary when I travel (this is both good and bad) and I lean more towards not spending money to go on tours and try and stay out of the touristy areas. I am so interested in how other people live their normal daily lives, so sitting at a cafe and people watching is highly liked. I would study (some may say stalk) people at the train stations, the grocery stores and on the streets. Imagining and wondering about what they do on a day-to-day basis and how they spend their free time. It's very interesting to me. New and unknown is so exciting and I am missing that these days! Sadly (very very sad), I haven't had the chance to go many places in the last couple of years, so there's been a lot of wanderlusting going on in these parts.
My huz and I have decided that our next adventure together will be a backpacking trip around Europe. Yes, I have been there but not everywhere! And he really wants to experience Europe since he's never been and has heard all about my experiences. Our main focus for this next trip will be 2 things: breweries (pubs too, of course) and flea markets. What could possibly be better than those two things?! So I am currently researching breweries to tour, pubs to visit and flea markets and thrift shops to hunt at.
Here are a few flea markets that are on our list:
