Teflon Or Silicon Grout

Kokkuvõte

entire route

traveling alone is both good and bad sides. The good thing is that you can choose their own way forward at a reasonable pace. Admittedly, little effort was made to start. I have also had communication problems. After a few weeks, I found the most intelligent person with whom to consult, and who became a harder word to say - for themselves. Often freely interacted with the surrounding nature: a flock of birds scared many a song to a yell: "Damn the cuckoo! What you sing here! What's wrong with you oksakesel sit and twitter, but I have to punnima up the hill to the soul off! "
However, nobody would have wanted yourself among the Company, especially in the evening. Camping sites often keep people on their own and even though I do not even talk to people socialize.
The first week seemed very long, and it seemed that 5 weeks is still a very long time. But then I started to go faster than time. Fatigue confronts some day, but the day was taken lightly, after all right again. In particular, gave power to climbing mountains.
5 weeks cycling are very good figures. At the end of the second week, was released from between the folds to reveal the navel and the third week of losses to "grips".
Languages, I was miserable. Spain French and Italian, knew of about 20 for English and I have also niru. But it was free to do it.

Statistics
trip lasted 43 days, the mileage of 3018 km.

France and Italy, the mountains do not have a problem finding campsites. Almost every village has camping. It is more difficult to find a flat in Spain and Italy.

congenial and memorable experiences

Barcelona, Aigüestortese National Park, Cite in Carcassonne, Minervois' viinapuuväljad, Sidobre, Millau Viaduct, vast fields in Aubrac, Auvergne mountains, numerous kurud, rivers and canyons of the Alps.
The highlight for me was climbing to the Matterhorn.
biking days in the first half.


Most Obnoxious hot weather - the best time would probably be in September.
Locally heavy traffic. Especially bad as it was supposed to go on the road lined with concrete walls. It was downright harrowing for me.
most depressing was the afternoon drive somewhere hot, dusty, suitsuvinguses the suburbs, where the dry winds stir up the dust and debris. And the second was a depressing place in supermarket car parks.

Overall very satisfied and ready to run off again in the next to go. If all goes well, then to Iceland.
