Hi! I created a detailed 12-day itinerary to discover Madeira on a budgetfriendly way. I travelled solo to Madeira in november 2022. Since I like to take my time to see things, meet new people and adventure I focus on following things: 1) Hostels, they are the best way to meet new people. 2) I love hiking so get ready for some beautiful hiking trails and wildcamping. 3) I use public transport, since this is a lot cheaper than renting a car. I give you advice on how to get there and how long it takes. 4) Tips and tricks on what to do and what not to. I recommend places I've been to myself but also places I heard great things about but didn't visit. 5) I love taking pictures so enjoy some travel pictures I took myself :) I discovered beautiful places and fell in love with Madeira, so I hope you do too!
