About

This blog was created because of a discussion we had with a friend not so long ago:

Friend: "You have to write about your trips and share it with more people!"

Us: "Nobody will read a blog like this because everyone likes travelling and there are a lot of people writing about it."

Friend: "Yes, it is true, a lot of people like travelling but yours is a passion and you make us dream... You have to write about your trips!"

What does travelling mean to us?

Well, we really believe that travelling is the only way to understand the world!

We also believe like Gustave Flaubert that "Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world." and like Baron de Montesquieu that "We receive three educations, one from our parents, one from our school-masters, and one from the world. The third contradicts all that the first two teach us.". Travelling teaches you tolerance and openness to people from other countries, nationalities, religions, races, cultures, languages, beliefs... It also makes you curious, aware of susceptibilities, patient to differences. It brings you astonishment, excitement and above all - love!

Last but not least, travelling makes you understand that there are no foreigners, strangers or aliens, that we are all the same and wherever our roots are, we are all part of the same world, citizens of Our Small Planet!

As of today and based on our "travel bible" - Lonely Planet's "The World - A Traveller's Guide to the Planet" - listing 221 countries/territories on 7 continents, we have travelled to 95 of them (including all continents) and, while this blog still has some catch up to do, it already covers 50 countries/territories on 7 continents! The idea of the blog is still to make you dream and give you some nice ideas and practical tips for your future trips (no ads or affiliate sales on this website... :-))! Enjoy reading and travelling!

We'll be happy to hear from you! Please drop us a line:
