When we traveled to Northern Spain in April of 2022, we had to cross the whole of France to get there. It took us two full days of driving to reach the French southern districts, but it was all worth the dull road time, since we had planned a short lay-over near Biscarrosse. Our goal? …
Winter is coming, autumn is here already. The time for warm sweaters, a cosy fireplace, hot soup and colourful forest walks. And a perfect time to travel as well.
