Saarland is known for it's coal mining industry but I didn't have to dig deep to find some epic places to visit! I've been 3 times already to take on Destination Challenges and the region always managed to surprise me.

Rose, my beloved T2 Westfalia van, and I are celebrating our 5th Anniversary with a 3rd 'Rose on the Road' road trip calendar!

This time it's filled with photos from our road trip adventures around Europe from this year. We cruised through France, Spain, Italy, Austria, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Poland and Latvia.

We picked our best photos for you to enjoy a whole year long.

Velnezers lake aka Devil's lake 😈 in Latgale, Latvia.

Tweet

Velnezers lake also known as Devil's lake can be found in Latgale, a region in the East of Latvia.

It got the nickname Devil's lake because it's surrounded by legends and mystery. There are stories about people disappearing in the forest, about not a bird that sings and that it's bad luck and dangerous swimming in the lake.

It's said that people don't know how the lake came to be. Some say it's because of a meteor impact, others claim it's because of an earthquake. One thing's for sure though, it's not like any other lake you've visited before.

As mysterious as it is it's also absolutely beautiful! The water is crystal clear and the silence surrounding it makes it the perfect place to find some peace and quiet.

This Devil's lake was the playground for our first Destination Challenges in Latvia. Muhahahaaaa 😈.

Paul (Passport Diary) and I were tasked to find it and take a walk around and that's exactly what we did...
