Everything from 2020's
This category include trips in the 2020’s, more precisely from 2020 and later. Seek them out in the Destinations menu. Posts with photo galleries from these years are also included in this category. World Heritage Sites are included if the first visit to it was during this decade, irrespective of it being a world heritage or not at the time.
When the decade of the 2020’s was still very young, Covid happened. The world went into a lock-down and so did my travels abroad – to a large extent. Over the next years my travel activity resumed its previous pace.
That may not be very visible to you, for a reason. I have grown a huge backlog of untold stories from my travels, all the way back to 2018. This means that this category looks quite meagre.
Travel back in time with Sandalsand. Cut straight to all journeys from the 1980’s, 1990’s, 2000’s, 2010’s, 2015’s and 2020’s.
