Author, Grand European Journeys, 40 Unforgettable Trips By Road, Rail, Sea & More
This week, Ira spoke with Lucas Peters, author of Grand European Journeys, 40 Unforgettable Trips By Road, Rail, Sea & More. In this sightseeing episode of “Ira’s Everything Bagel,” Lucas talks about being the Morocco expert who then was asked to write this European book; why the format of the book was collaborative; taking classic rail trips; the benefits of sleeper trains (for meeting people and saving money); why travel should be fun; the importance of adventure travel; his favorite itinerary from the book; the most unusual group he curated a trip for through his boutique agency (Journey Beyond Travel); his love of typewriters; balancing his writing, traveling, family and business; and the challenge of putting the book together with such a wide range of journeys through Europe.
Writer and photographer Lucas Peters has spent much of the past two decades exploring and developing his love for Europe. He has sipped wine with the monks at the Rila Monastery in Bulgaria, squeezed through a melting glacier in Iceland, and awkwardly tried to dance in the hippest club in Berlin. He has busked on the streets of London, concussed himself snowboarding in the Alps, road-tripped with friends through most of Italy and discovered that not all roads lead to Rome (and that it is a very good idea to travel with an old-fashioned road map). He has ordered lunch in Czech, negotiated a car rental in Bulgarian, and talked himself out of a parking ticket in Granada using very, very broken Spanish. Today, from his base in Tangier, he often finds himself peering over the Strait of Gibraltar to Spain from his balcony, dreaming about tapas.
Lucas has written and photographed articles ranging geographically from Iceland to Bulgaria for outlets as varied as En Route, Transitions Abroad, Travel Zoo, The Luxury Blog, Verge Magazine, Veg News, and Travel + Leisure. The author of Moon Morocco and Moon Marrakesh & Beyond, he also recently contributed to Our Morocco: Moroccans and Expats Share Their Hopes, Dreams, and Adventure.
Today, Lucas lives in Tangier with his wife and two kids. Together, as a multi-lingual family, they continue to explore Morocco: the small towns dotting the national roads, the difficult-to-access mountain villages, and secluded beaches.
