Highways and Gravel Roads

Monika von Borthwick

Monika von Borthwick belongs to the slightly older generation and lives in Upper Bavaria. In addition to her professional activity, she took care of bus travelers for years as a tour guide in Europe.
After the death of her husband she moved on to individual travel and explored numerous regions in Europe on her own with her newly acquired motorhome and her two companions. Armed with these experiences, a few years ago she ventured the jump across the Atlantic with an organized group.
During this five-month journey from Washington to and through Mexico, the decision was made to try it again on her own. She discovered the love of storytelling and sent detailed reports home by email. These are now compiled and tell this journey for the first time.
