Many times during this trip we have met amazingly nice people, and sometimes we cross paths more than once! But to first meet in Macedonia, and then run into each other again in Germany several months later, isn't that a bit unlikely?

ShareWe almost missed each other
We met Tom-Erik and Gunn-Marie from Norway on the Struga campsite in Macedonia in early September and had two pleasant evenings together there. When we visited Neuschwanstein Castle a few days ago, something surprising happened.
We didn't notice it at first, but as we drove away from there and onto the motorway, we saw something fluttering against the windscreen. Advertising? We didn't look until the next day and then we saw it: It was a map with a circled campsite and it said "Vi er her! Tom-Erik and Gunn-Marie". Was that true? By that time we had already driven another two hours in another direction ...
Meeting at a campsite in Kassel
It felt so awkward that almost have met, but still missed each other, so we weren't quite ready to give up. We wrote a comment on Tom-Erik and Gunn-Marie's blog and asked where they were planning to go. And yesterday both our motorhomes rolled into a campsite in Naumburg near Kassel in Germany! It was a long and pleasant evening with wine and snacks in our motorhome.
Tom-Erik and Gunn-Marie have been on the road for a total of six months and have managed to do all sorts of things since we last saw them, including an island trip in Greece (when they left the motorhome at an airport) but also France and Spain. So you understand that we had a lot to talk about! Today we have woken up to a new day and soon we will roll towards Lübeck.

What a funny coincidence.
Lübeck sounds like more of a Christmas market to you.

Steve, yes or no? If we arrive early enough in the day (have a bit to drive) we'll probably pop into Lubeck!
Ama de casa, very funny! 🙂
Rolle and Carina, yes you meet many nice people when you are out and about with a motorhome! 🙂

So much fun! Talk about a small world. Oh as Steve says - more Christmas market in Lübeck if it has already opened. Drive carefully!

What fun that it was possible to get a date together anyway! Maybe now you will look for little notes on the windscreen every time you come to the motorhome in a car park 😉.

Reality often surpasses poetry! When we walked up to the castle in Cochem on a small path, we ran into the children's classmates. A week later we ended up on the same boat on our way home. That's how it can be 😀.

What a great meeting! And so lucky that you were able to find each other and meet again. I understand that you had a lot to talk about.

Lennart, yes it is!? Thank you very much!
BP, we're a bit early for the Christmas markets yet, although it feels like it's coming!
Åsa, we hope so too!!!
Linnea, yes it feels so stupid when you just miss each other! Haha, yes we may have to start checking there 😉.
Znogge, that's funny! And it's true, things that would seem unlikely on film do happen in real life! 🙂
Ditte, yes it felt good that we made it! And interesting to exchange travel experiences 🙂.
