Turtle swimming along the sandy bottom of the Red Sea

Best Moments

Driving the scenic Splügen Pass from Switzerland into Italy during a European road trip was an unforgettable experience, with its winding roads and breathtaking Alpine views.
Choosing a quiet dive site off a liveaboard in the Red Sea with my dive buddy, which led to a magical close encounter with a green sea turtle away from the crowds.
Visiting Triberg Waterfall in the Black Forest was enchanting, especially seeing playful red squirrels as we climbed to the top.
Exploring the trails around Positano on the Amalfi Coast was unforgettable, with its dramatic cliffs, stunning Mediterranean views and picturesque hillside scenery.

Toughest Travel Moment

Missing the last bus back while exploring Lake Garda in Italy was a bit of a setback. Fortunately, a traditional Italian pizzeria came to the rescue, proving that pizza makes every situation better. I managed to find alternative transport and turn the day around.

Weirdest Travel Moment

Trying camel steak in Egypt was an unusual experience. I wasn't expecting to taste such an unexpected dish, but it turned out to be surprisingly tender and flavourful, something I never thought I'd try!
