Almost two years ago, before I came to Australia, my partner and me decided to see some countries in Eastern Europe. On 15 days we saw 15 diferent countries.
First we had to prepare our car because we knew it was be our bedroom too. We took some food with us, some information about countries we wanted to see and some money.
It was August so we expected the weather was nice. I can't remember but I think only one day it was raining and that was in Greece. I remember also, in Greece, we couldn't find any camping to stay over night so we slept in our car on beach. The sunset was amazing and we took many fotos.
However Greece was not the firt country we saw. First we crossed Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova. While driving we passed a lot of fields and orchads. At the side of the roads some farmers were selling fruits and vegetables. We stoped a few times and bought: peaches, watermelons, apples and sunfolwers.
In Romania we saw many highways being constructed. The roads were modern and in very good conditione. This was very impresive and unexpected. The next counry on our trip was Bulgaria where I swam in the Black Sea. We took the camping near the beach. There were many people on this camping. We continued our trip further south-to Turkey. In Turkey we had to find a mechanic because our car needed to check up. It was funny because everyone spoke only Turkish. We tried German, Rusian, English and finally we used our hands to explained what happened with the car.
While the mechanic took care of the car, we were drinking very delicious turkish tea in a very small cups. I've never before drunk this tasty tea.
After that we drove to Gallipoli to see monument of soliders who died in the First World War.
From Turkey we drove to Greece and stayed there one day.
It was the half of our trip, so we had to start returning to Poland.
We drove through Macedonia and got to Albania.We picked road along the mountin tops. I'v never ever saw so many Mercedes' as in Albania.
On the same day we reached Montenegro, where we were camping. As we travelled the main road along the coast, we were passing a lot of beaches, hotels and resorts. It was very crowdy, the beaches were full of tourists and the streets were full of cars. The views were incredible but we didn't like the crowds.
We took off early in the morning, we crossed Bosnia and Hercegovina and entered Croatia. Again we stayed over night at a camping but this time we had unreal views over the Adriatic. We spent afternoon on the beach with crystal-clear water. I wanted to see Plitvicka Jezera(Lakes) in central Croatia but we had not enough time for that. On the next day we crossed Slovenija and we reached Vienna. Before we left this famous city we found the Piatnik play cards factory and we bought a few sets as a souvenir.Driving across Slovakia we got to Poland on the same day.
It was a great adventure for both of us. I was learning in the school a lot about countries we have seen but to visit them was an absolutely different experience.
