The Best Time of The Year

Vacation: Else and I look forward to it again and again.

After more than twenty years, in 2025 we’ve waved goodbye to our trusty caravan. Our new hybrid isn’t much of a tower, so from now on, we’ll be leaning more towards Airbnbs—just like we did whenever a long trip with the caravan felt a bit too ambitious.

Our travel destinations are wonderfully diverse, ranging from the occasional journey beyond Europe, stays at campsites to city breaks in some of the continent’s lesser-known and less touristy destinations.

In our early twenties we discovered naturism in southern France. Since 1983, we try to combine a clothes-free vacation with sightseeing.

Unfortunately, some regions are not that open-minded to naturism and finding a nude beach while on a city trip can be rather challenging.

We’ve been visiting quite a few naturist resorts in Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, Spain and France. Guess these Mediterranean countries offer the greatest variety of naturist sites for those who travel around by caravan.

Winter holidays in the snow aren’t exactly our cup of tea. Temperatures shy of 20°C aren’t our cup of tea;-)  Our bank account permitting, we definitely enjoy escaping our winter season for a week or two. Or a short break during the mid season period.

This holiday timeline offers a glimpse into some of our more recent travels through a selection of photos. Over time, we plan to keep expanding it by adding pictures from holidays further back in the past.

The focus is exclusively on our actual vacations, so you won’t find any of Egbert’s amateur radio-related trips here.
