Our next stop after Barcelona was Aix-en-Provence, France. Since Nice was our following stop, I wanted to find a place that was a little off the beaten path and not on the water. I also wanted to find somewhere that was easy to get to via train so after a little bit of research I … Continue reading Aix Marks the Spot
Europe
Busy in Bustling Barcelona
People always ask, "if there was one city in Europe you could spend 4-5 days in, what would it be." My answer is always and still is: BARCELONA.

Making Memories in Madrid

A 126 Day Adventure on a Whim

A typical Remote Year conversation
So you're on a side trip and you sit down at a bar with some remotes and after a few minutes the two people next to you recognize you speak English so you began to chat. Like many conversations on the road they begin with where are you from and what are you doing here. … Continue reading A typical Remote Year conversation
