Rick’s Spring 2026 Trip Report — 50 Days and 50 Nights in Europe
After nearly two months of guidebook research across Europe, Rick returns to Monday Night Travel to share his discoveries, screw-ups, and lessons learned. Get ready for a hot-out-of-the-rucksack look at la dolce vita in Italy — with stops in Florence, the Cinque Terre, Pisa, and Lucca — and the whitewashed Greek isles of Naxos, Santorini, Rhodes, and tiny islands you may not have heard of (Symi, I'm lookin' at you, my love). Then, after ramparts, kraut, and wanderung fun in southwest Germany, we enjoy a Switzerland finale — from the scalps of the alps to its underrated cities. Get ready to stoke your travel dreams on this whirlwind trip with Rick!- Rick’s one-of-a-kind overview of what (and how) he packs for nimble, light travels: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18vvTg6h9i/
