2006 Europe Trip

Village of Montone, Umbria, Italy

Our 2006 trip will be something entirely different from our round Australia expeditions when we venture to Europe spending two weeks travelling through England and Scotland before heading across to Paris for a few days. We pick up a new Peugeot 307 Sports Station Wagon in Paris and spend a week travelling across to Italy where we will spend 10 weeks in a small village called Montone.  Montone is a medieval village in northern Umbria, in the heart of medieval Italy, about 220 kms north of Rome.  Founded between AD800 and 1000, Montone is a working village, now officially recognised as Uno dei Borghi più belli d’Italia, “One of the Most Beautiful Towns in Italy”.  After 10 weeks in Montone we then travel to Venice for a few days then back to Paris to return our car and home.
