Back in May, Toyota Europe’s new 4x4 Ambassador – travel adventure photographer Johan Lolos, aka @lebackpacker – set off on a five-month road trip to capture the Peaks of Europe. This ambitious photography project will lead Johan to the far corners of Europe, from Northern Norway and Iceland to the Greek Islands and into the Alps. We caught up with Johan after returning from the northern part of his trip, as he prepared to head south.
