The carbon emissions produced by the automotive sector have came up against barrels of criticism in recent times, from environmental groups and European governments alike. These discussions have prompted manufacturers to revise traditional forms of motoring and consider new alternatives, one of which is the all-electric alternative to existing harmful fuels such as petrol and diesel. The perception of electric vehicles is set to evolve, with a steer towards conserving the earth’s finite resources and reducing harmful gaseous emissions.

Forget the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. You shouldn’t go to Paris without visiting Pere Lachaise cemetery. Not only is it a tree lined island of tranquility from which to escape the throngs of tourists, it is inhabited, if one can use that word, by some fascinating characters from history. Edith Piaf, Oscar Wilde and Frederic Chopin are all buried there and the list of famous characters goes on and on.

Living in London is a diverse and visceral experience. It would be impossible to have a population of almost 9 million different people living in the same place and not have rushing crowds and people in every direction that you look. It is one of the great strengths and weaknesses of the capital. London is an amazing city because people from all backgrounds come together to live side by side.

Before even watching the movie “Letters to Juliet”, I was excited to go to Verona as part of my Mediterranean Trek. So I planned out my visit to this city mainly by borrowing the movie from a friend. The only mistake I made was that I booked a mere two nights in Verona, leaving me with just one full day to experience all that this quaint city has to offer.

Backpacking Europe on the brink of a pandemic sure brought on a lot of interesting travel experiences! I think the most unusual was what was supposed to be a week-long trip to Salzburg, Austria: home of The Sound of Music.
Jessica LippePublished 4 years ago in WanderTraveling Abroad with the Coronavirus
I started what was supposed to be an extended European trip in late February 2020. Just a couple days before leaving, I heard that the coronavirus, which previously was only really an issue in China, was now infecting parts of Northern Italy, particularly the two cities I was going to visit: Milan and Venice. Thankfully, I was landing in Munich, where at the time there had only been a few cases that were already treated. I left on my trip, knowing that I would need to keep an eye on the news to see if I needed to rearrange my plans with Italy. But since my time in Northern Italy was a month away, I was hopeful that the coronavirus outbreak would be taken care of by then.
