Slow travel
through Europe.
No tour groups, no rushed itineraries. Spain and Italy are my favourites, I took the train along Portugal's Atlantic coast, and Bratislava, Prague and Budapest I visit twice a year or more.

The Spanish Quarter on foot, rooftop views at dusk, and pizza that makes every other pizza an approximation. A city that does not apologise for itself.

Lisbon
Mornings in tiled cafés, afternoons along the Tagus, evenings with food that needed no translation.

Copenhagen
A city built around cycling, good design and the quiet confidence of systems that work. It showed me what a well-planned city feels like from a saddle.
