Leg 3
Instead of returning in January 2015, I extended this trip to the end of March 2015, just to avoid having to come back to Brussels in full winter, which would have been depressing…
Instead, this is what I came up with:
- 05/01-11/01 Perth, then take the train to Adelaide (13/01-17/01)
- 17/01-14/02 Melbourne
- 14/02-18/02 drive to Canberra and Sydney
- 18/02-07/03 Santiago de Chile
- 07/03-22/03 Buenos Aires
- 23/03/2015 return to Brussels
Here’s the detailed account of the planning.
And this is what my world travel map looks like in the end, the countries I have visited on this journey, including the European countries I have visited before going on this trip.
Still a lot of blank.
