Here’s roughly how the logbook of the CURVES trip described here reads: we trace the green border of Eastern Germany from Bavaria to Saxony, passing from Free State to Free State through the Bavarian Forest and Thuringia, through the Fichtelgebirge and Erzgebirge regions, from the Isar to the Elbe. After our long journeys in Europe’s northern climes, we are looking fulfill the dream of a little excursion into a picture-postcard world.

Norway. This western outpost of Scandinavia holds a magical attraction for many people. This issue of CURVES drives straight to the heart of the country’s majestic natural wonders and mysteries. Our stated aim is to find out what Norway is really like.

CURVES Switzerland. What magical a reunion with this unique country in the heart of Europe, which is always been synonymous with “the mountains” and, more especially, with “Gran Turismo” – crossing the mountains between north and south in an exercise in which the route itself becomes the reward.

Iceland: the volcanic island half-way to Greenland is a place filled with longing, great natural beauty, extreme weather and wonderful secrets. That’s exactly why this trip to Iceland makes the perfect fit for the CURVES series: wanderlust and magical experiences, as well as sheer driving pleasure, are what provide the impetus for following the rhythm of the CURVES beat.

Southern Germany actually doesn’t exist – at least not as one landscape. Not as one unit. The former great powers of Europe clawed at Baden, Swabia and Bavaria so much that the folk didn’t have time to rally themselves – or even to figure out a shared identity.

However, this issue of CURVES, an amazing four-stage tour through Thailand, changes things quite markedly for the first time. What you’re holding in your hands is the first Asian issue of CURVES.

The moment of departure is always like seeing our planet anew: you never know what might happen, what adventures may unfold. It’s wonderful that we experience this so often, every day in fact.
