A 2-week European backpacking trip at the outset of the Covid19 pandemic.

These are travel highlights from a European backpacking trip in March, 2020. I didn't know it at the time, but these turned out to be the last travel days for quite a long time as the world was beginning to shut down. I started the journey by flying from Seoul to Frankfurt am Main with a connection in Dubai. From there I met a friend for a week-long trip through Bavaria. We hit the cities of Nuremberg, Bamberg, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Munich, and Fussen to see Neuschwanstein. From there my buddy flew back to England and I ventured on by myself. From Fussen, I took a bus through the alps into Austria. In Reutte I caught a nighttime train to Innsbruck. After a night there, I hopped another train to the Austrian capital of Vienna. I stayed there for a few nights before boarding yet another train to Budapest, Hungary. After a few nights in Budapest, I bought a train ticket to Prague, Czechia. Unfortunately, I got turned away at the Slovakian border because the government had banned tourists out of feat of the coronavirus. Instead, I returned to Budapest to board a plane bound for Lisbon. Lisbon was always the scheduled end point of my adventure, but when I arrived, the US government announced that they were not accepting any flights from Europe. After a chaotic few hours, I was able to book a new ticket to Chicago that connected in New York City. When I finally returned to Wisconsin, I quarantined for 2-weeks. When I finally emerged, it felt like everything everywhere had changed.
