European cycling tour: 6000 km through 17 countries – Episode 2 (Istanbul – Italy)

In 2022, we had a 6 months sabbatical and cycled 6000 km through 17 countries in the South of Europe. This second episode brings us in approximately 1200 km from Istanbul, via Greece and the Balkan to Italy. After a one week holiday with our children, we went back home for a short break to start the next part of trip.
