Els Slots Profile

Since 1997, I travel with a focus on visiting World Heritage Sites (WHS). Next to my IT job, I have taken 3 to 4 larger trips annually, and there were also many weekend trips in Europe to survive the rest of the year. From 2022 on, I will dedicate all my time to WHS and WH travel.

Plans for 2nd half of 2022

Greek Islands (September)
Rome with my Art History friends (early October)
Chad (late October)
Northern Brazil (a month in November/December)

Ideas for 2023

I am looking into a 3-month 'Cambodia to Tana Toraja' trip, and one to Madagascar.

Old Town Lunenburg

Els Slots The Netherlands - 29-Jun-22

Lunenburg owes its existence to offshore cod fishery, but now seems to mostly focus on tourism because of its perfect British colonial grid plan and fine collection of wooden houses from the 19th century. It was my last WHS to visit on my Eastern Canada trip in 2022.

Nice weather was predicted, but a thick fog lay over the town when I got there at half-past nine. The large fisheries museum had just opened its doors. Attributes from the Atlantic fishing history are displayed on three floors. It is more like a warehouse than a museum that tells a specific story. In 1992, cod fishing from Lunenburg and the surrounding area was stopped by the Canadian government due to overfishing. A part of the exhibits is shown in the former icehouse.

Red Bay Basque Whaling Station

Els Slots The Netherlands - 01-Jul-22

I did not ‘engineer’ my 800th visited World Heritage Site: my Canadian itinerary was already set before I decided to go to Tunisia first. With no ‘misses’ in between, the Red Bay Basque Whaling Station became my #800. The place does not sound as exciting as Okavango and Uluru for example, which were my #700 and #400 respectively. But in the end, I was happy with it as I found it an enjoyable site in a rather remote location.

If you look up on a map where this is located, you will see how remote and isolated it is. Labrador's first "big" town - with the beautiful name Happy Valley Goose Bay - has only 8,000 inhabitants and is 550 km away

Grand Pré

Els Slots The Netherlands - 25-Jun-22

Nowadays this is mostly a Place of Remembrance for the Acadian people, who were forcefully evicted from their lands in 1755. No expense has been spared for a rather grandiose visitor center, a rebuilt church and surrounding gardens. Upon entering the visitor center, I was immediately stimulated to go and see the 20min video, which is being played in the theatre. It tells the story of how the Acadians were chased from their land. It left me with a weird feeling – it's like a propaganda film.

L'Anse aux Meadows

Els Slots The Netherlands - 20-Jun-22

Sometimes you think it is all a hoax. That the Canadian Tourist Board has made up this “Meeting of Two Worlds” site on the northwestern tip of Newfoundland to pull tourists to an economically disadvantaged part of the country. For WH travellers it is even worse, as L’Anse Aux Meadows has to be combined in one itinerary with Mistaken Point which lies completely on the opposite site of the island on its southeastern tip. The distance between them is 1150 kilometers.

The conclusion that this wasn’t an indigenous camp but one inhabited by early European navigators is attributed to the discovery of iron objects and a particular pin used in Scandinavia to hold together clothes (pictured)

Mistaken Point

Els Slots The Netherlands - 22-Jun-22

Along with Red Bay in Labrador, Mistaken Point is the hardest-to-reach World Heritage Site of the 10 in Eastern Canada. Located in the far southeastern corner of the island of Newfoundland, it can only be visited with a prearranged tour. I reserved 4 weeks in advance by e-mail and was given a choice between two time slots on my preferred day. Fortunately, the tours rarely get cancelled ("about 5 times a year") as bad weather does not deter the Newfoundlanders, they are only called off when the waves are so high that they cover the fossils or it gets dangerous. The day before the visit, I drove from Deer Lake in the West to St. John's, the largest city in the East (which takes 6.5 hours)
