Interrail trip

Between July 15th and August 4th 2002, I undertook a trip with my friend Joseph in the Mediterranean area with the Interrail card. This card allowd us to travel by train and ship for free in the south of Europe. Here are some pictures of our three unforgettable weeks of adventure through Italy, Greece and Switzerland. This page is dedicated to all the people we met during our trip and especially to you Silvia... Our travel The pictures home > ego > amis, photos et liens > voyage avec la carte interrail
