Tag Archives: Special encounters – Back in 2005, when my blog was created, Wandering Footsteps charted the travels and adventures of one Canadian girl. In 2012, Wandering Footsteps became a blog of two, for I had teamed up with a wild, passionate, Petit-prince-loving Frenchman for an overland trip around the world. And now, in 2018, Wandering Footsteps goes from two to three. Baby Nomad has arrived, folks! And we are so excited to introduce him to you!  I’ve just returned from a mini Euro-trip to Barcelona, Carcassonne, and Bordeaux, and it was so, so fun! It wasn’t just great to be traveling again – after a two month hiatus – or that I got to discover three brand new destinations. It’s that I got to share the trip with two of my very bestest friends in the world!  In case anyone was wondering why Bruno and I raced across Canada this summer, wonder no more – it was to join our families on a road trip to Nova Scotia! Several months later, I reminisce about the amazing memories our three RVs created as we left our tracks across one my country’s loveliest provinces.  An honest take on what it’s like to be a HelpX host – the good and the bad. What it’s like to host strangers, what I’ve learned about being a good host, and whether or not Bruno and I will ever host again.  Bruno is emphatically anti-city. Even as a child, he’d get headaches whenever his mom dragged him to Paris. So what was it about this trip and this city that softened my city-hating husband’s heart? You’ll just have to read on until the end of the post to find out! |
