Inspiring You to Travel Differently!
Gabriele Marewski is a Travel Adventurer
I have been traveling since 1969 and have seen 48 states and 41 countries.
In 2001 I took my first international hiking trip - walking across the foothills of the Himalayas. I solo walked the Camino Trail across Spain for 400 miles, and solo walked from Prague, Czech Republic to Tubingen, Germany logging 403 miles.
In 2012 I started adventure biking and have spun my wheels for 4,800 miles… so far.
Europe has over 30,000 miles of biking and hiking trails with another 25,000 miles in the works. There are 19 long distance routes called the EUROVELO. The shortest trail is 650 miles and the longest is 6,800 miles. My dream is to bike them all!
Travel is freedom!

2025 ~ TRANS EUROPE HIKE & BIKE
My plan is to ship my camper van to Europe in May for a duration of 6 months. First, I’ll visit my relatives & friends in Germany and then head south spending 3 months in Schengen countries (Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Romania and Bulgaria) and 3 months in non-Schengen countries (BIH, Serbia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Albania and North Macedonia) to comply with the tourist visa requirement of 90 days max (not continuous) in Schengen countries.
I have a list of 26 national parks for exploring the hiking trails during the summer. In the fall I’m super excited to bicycle the Carpathians in Romania and then along the Danube River on the Bulgarian side ending up at the Danube Delta, giving my van a break.
