    Remote working while walking

    Yes easily done. I met an Irish couple. They stayed in hotels when he needed good wifi for work. He was quite manic though and would often “go for a run” at the end of the day. Whatever floats your boat!

I have been twice and both times would describe myself as overweight and unfit. It's lovely to be the last in each day and know on of...

    Orisson Food Question

    Or get the the three cheese panini at the bakery in St Jean and have a picnic on the way up. You can also stop at Huunto for food and coffee. I am jealous of you. This was one of the most amazing days for me
