      I thought the same thing. I was going to buy a e63s 2018 but I got a tesla instead to save money on gas, insurance and travel. I been to Iceland, Dominic Republic, and I'm going to Italy, Greece, Albania, maybe Germany or Croatia this summer for two months. Was looking at these videos to decide whether to go to Germany or Croatia. These videos made me realize how beautiful every country is and that I need to make more money to explore all of them.

      Omg I thought I am the only one doing that I drive a Lexus 2006 is250 I had the funds and opportunity to buy a new car but I preferred to take 2 us and 3 European trips for the past 3 years I live in Canada and everything here is super expensive but let me tell you I don’t regret my decision a bit, good luck with your upcoming travels I’m going to explore Dublin marrakesh and porto in march and just ca,e here. To find one more place to explore

    This video was easily one of the best ones I'd ever seen. Your filming skills are unmatched, and make every small place you visited look like a dream. I live in Cinque Terre, Italy and am always looking froward to finding new destinations where to go, but on social media lately I've seen this tendency in representing Europe as only history while Asia, Africa and South America as the countries with the best nature. With this video you've reminded me how many beautiful and different landscapes my continent has, and you've given me a lot of inspiration for future travels. Thank you so much.

After having visited over hundreds of cities in Europe, it's easy to praise you for capturing on film so closely what one sees in person and oftentimes even better with your drone footage.

      @@RyanShirley The disrespect to recognize Israel when it's not an actual country, try going to the real country first which is Palestine, then you can check out the stolen land that has a bad backstory so being desperate to go to a place that stole land from a different country is not too respectful. You didn't even recognize Palestine in your comment. It's worse than Russia invading Ukraine because Ukraine used to be a part of Russia and now they're their own country but Russia is still trying to take it back while Palestine was never part of Israel because Israel never existed until they tried to settle somewhere so they invaded Palestine and took some of their land and hurt the Palestinian people and destroyed Palestinian land while doing that. Imagine if a group of people were bullied by some powerful people and they had nowhere to stay so then they went to a place that exists and is inhabited and stole some of their land violently while killing the people and destroying the buildings. As I said it's worse than Russia invading Ukraine because Ukraine wasn't always independent. I suggest you learn more history.

    Wow, so many great places. I have only been to a few of them, but I want to see so much more for myself. Last summer three friends and I travelled from our home country of The Netherlands to Croatia with a small camper van, and I persuaded them to take the Grossglockner Hochalpenstrasse. It was great, especially because I was driving. At least at the start, halfway through my friends got so scared they forced me to let one of them drive. The van did struggle to get up the mountain tho. Driving through Europe is a great experience. Most pressing point on my bucket list is Italy, biggest gap in my travel history so far (literally, I have been to all the countries around it). I will have to convince my friends to make that our destination for next year.

    i like that Dresden is in the list too :). I love my Saxony. we have a really rich history here. i live in Leipzig and Goethe came from here or Mendelssohn (which btw composed the world wide known wedding march, the melody knows any child. and hark the heralds angels sing.) and Johann Sebastian Bach and so much more. Furthermore we hold many records here. german and even world records. like the biggest city hall in the world. If you want to see the biggest monument in Europe, you also have to come to Leipzig to the Battle of Nations Monument :). And we have the second most old University in Germany and one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world too! :)

    The most beautiful places that I visited (that you didn't mention) were, in random order:
    1. Algarve in Portugal (especially Praia da Marinha and Praia dos Caneiros, and also the Benagil cave)
    2. Lapland in Finland in winter
    3. Plitvice lakes in Croatia

      OMG! I immediatly recongized the Plitvice lakes! I never knew where it was or how was it called, it was used in one of the Winetous movie! :) It's an old timey western (with a 'native american guy' being the lead)
      Most people in the US (or world) don't know it, it's such a classic in these parts (central europe at least)

    Station in Darmstadt FDR 1983 - 1985. All the Bavaria castles were stunning to visit. Also got to go into Austria Innsbruck. Manheim, Frankfurt. Once upon a time every young man should have joined the Army and see Germany(Deutschland). Beautiful to see and get the greatest education of a life time. Older now and I will go back again. Great travel packages available.

      That’s awesome you were stationed in Germany! There’s nothing quite like traveling Europe in your youth
