After 6 month of travelling through Romania, Moldova, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia and Italy, we finally reached native soil again. It was cold, everything was much more expensive, and the Covid regulations were just crazy, but we were home.

This year, the Globetrotter Rodeo took place again, and we didn’t want to miss it! Especially as it took place at the quarry of Edi’s friend Max in his hometown Limberg in Lower Austria.
