World Borders: How to Get from Belize to Honduras (Ferry from Placencia to Puerto Cortes)

I had already dipped in and out of Honduras before I visited Belize so this was my second time to enter the country.

So you Read more about World Borders: How to Get from Belize to Honduras (Ferry from Placencia to Puerto Cortes)[…]

World Borders: How to Get From Guyana to Suriname (Ferry from Moleson Creek to South Drain)

Having recently written some chapters for the book on crossing world borders in South America, I thought I’d get a few more published on here.

World Borders: How to Get to the Freetown of Christiania Within Copenhagen, Denmark

This is yet another of my strange world border crossings as although its not official it was still just as exciting, satisfying, rewarding and inspiring as I left behind Denmark and the EU across into the self declared freetown of Christiania.

World Borders: How To Get To The Republic of Uzupis Within Vilnius, Lithuania

This edition of World Borders is slightly wacky and different from the usual suspects. The reason is I crossed into the self declared arty Republic of Uzupis whilst remaining all the time within the same city, Vilnius housed in the country of Lithuania. The Republic of Uzupis has been in existence since 1998. It has Read more about World Borders: How To Get To The Republic of Uzupis Within Vilnius, Lithuania[…]

In my ongoing World Borders series this time I report on how to get from Bulgaria to Northern Macedonia.
