I have been over three times but the first two were over thirty years ago. I had cars each time. Driving in Europe for me is no more stressful than driving here. The international signs are very familiar looking. There are enough French and German words that are familiar that the language, for me is not too daunting either. The toughest thing may be ordering from a menue.

Ordinary conversation is impossible although it is surprising how much you commnicate with gestures facial expressions and a very few words.

I love Europe and would visit tomorrow if I had the spare time and money.
