Photographs van Italy, summer 2004

Photographs van Italy, summer 2004

We were invited to a campsite in Italy for a week by an advertiser, so we have planned a trip. But when we call the campsite they don't know anything about it. Afterwards it all turned out to be a misunderstanding and we had been welcome. But now we have just driven our own route and seen beautiful things. And Teije has just escaped being arrested in Vatican City. After the tour through Italy we drove on to Croatia where we visited an old acquaintance.
Here all all the photographs of this journey that we use on the website.
