Jacou

Confession time...we'd never heard of Jacou prior to arranging our current house and parrot sit. We quickly did a Google search, however, and discovered it's a small town of approximately 5700 inhabitants within easy commuting distance to Montpellier. 

To France to Housesit

We arrived in France (the 25th country we've had the pleasure of visiting) less than a week ago, and we're already smitten. There's so much to see, experience and savour. Montpellier is situated on the Mediterranean it's history dates back to Roman times. This impressive aqueduct is within walking distance of the old section of the city.

Gaudi's Barcelona

It's rare to visit Barcelona without seeing Antoni Gaudi's amazing buildings. Known as Catalan Mondernism they are visible throughout the city. 

Casa Mila

A Day in Seville

Travelling from Lagos, Portugal to Montpellier, France we were fortunate enough to spend a day in Seville. We knew from the get go it would not be enough time to do the city justice, but we gave it our best shot and began with a hop on hop off bus tour. 

Memories of Marvellous Portugal

We arrived in Portugal with no expectations and in six short weeks lost our hearts to this amazing country. We fallen for its cozy and inviting accommodations...

Sagres Fortress

Sagres is the most westerly town in the Algarve. Its famous for its fortress, built in the 15th century, as well as being home to Prince Henry the Navigator's School of Navigation.

A Little Paint & Metal

Since our days as cave dwellers humans have used paint and other objects to decorate their home and surroundings. Graffiti can be found in a number of places on the fortified wall that surrounds Lagos.
