Southwest Tenerife, Canary Islands

Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands, which are located off the coast of Southern Morocco. This island also has the highest mountain in Spain at about 12.000 feet. Due to its southern location, the Canary Islands have a mild climate during the whole year – making it theRead More…


Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

My first stop in the Canary Islands was in Las Palmas, the capital of the Gran Canaria. It is the third-largest of the Canary Islands and has the second largest population at about 800.000 people. After the freezing temperatures in mid-November in New Mexico, it was a nice change toRead More…


Southernmost beach in Texas

This beach is just a few miles North of Mexico on the Gulf Coast. It’s warmer than Southern Spain in Winter, though not quite as warm as Florida.

Perth, Western Australia in the late summer

Perth is located in the Southwestern corner of Australia. It has a mediterranean climate, which means it is hot in the summers and somewhat like Southern Spain in the winters. There are only about 2 million people living in Western Australia, most of them around Perth.


Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein is one of the smallest countries in Europe. It is located between Switzerland and Austria. When I drove in I did not even notice that I had crossed the border. Only on the way back I saw a sign that showed where Switzerland starts again.


Southern Spain: Costa Del Sol in Winter

The Costa del Sol is located on the Southern Coast of Spain, somewhat West of Malaga. The winter temperatures can reach up to 20-23 degrees Celsius during the day, but it gets down to about 10 degrees during the night. Still, it is probably one of the warmest places inRead More…
