Great Let's Go

Our Spanish Road Trip

We only pre-booked summer before leaving Canada, thinking Europe would be a busy place. As August came to a close, we’d been tossing around some ideas on where to spend September and October. Anywhere from Poland to Greece to South of France or even going back to Italy. Every day it was a different location and we just couldn’t decide! … Read More

The Perfect Travel Itinerary – La Rioja, Spain

Tell Us Mister, What Have You Done?

If you really want to test the theory that time goes by fast when you’re having fun, try travelling for three months.

Hiking Near Saint-Jean-de-Luz

Baharak, Kasm and I did a nice 14 km walk this morning on the Sentier de Littoral (coastal trail) in the Basque region of France. We’re staying a few days in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, a very quaint, slow-paced town, and decided to get in a little exercise. We hoped on the bus 816 in front of the train station and headed for Bidart, … Read More
