Bilbao
Our time spent in Bilbao and the surrounding region was just the prolonged stay we had been looking for. It allowed us to fully experience this beautiful land with its mix of natural wonders, culture, and culinary traditions, along with the gregarious and friendly people of Bilbao and the Basque countryside.
Live and Learn in the Azores
Do you need a car in the Azores. Yes. Live and Learn in the Azores covers our story about how we tried to move around using buses but we ended up renting a car.
Sete Cidades
Armed with maps for all the must visit hikes and viewpoints, as well as bus schedules, we made our first excursion a hike near Sete Cidades.
Belfast
On a bright, sunny morning we departed Glasgow, took a bus to the port city of Cairnryan and boarded a ferry for the two-and-a-half hour journey to Belfast, Ireland.
We Landed in the Azores
The weather report promised a nice sunny day and our 2-hour flight from Porto was smooth and pleasant. However, once we We Landed in the Azores the sky turned gray and stormy.
Paiva River Walk
Designed in dialogue with nature, morphology and panoramic views the Paiva River Walk was a worthy adventure!
Appreciating the Caledonian Canal
Our time spent experiencing the Caledonian Canal gave us a greater understanding and appreciation for why it is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest waterway engineering projects ever accomplished.
Biarritz
While it can’t compare to the French Riviera, Biarritz is certainly one of the hipper towns in France. Here, surfers and day trippers wearing flip-flops and Patagonia jackets comfortably mingle with fashionistas in their espadrilles and designer floral scarves.
