It is fun but sometimes, I have to admit, I missed routine a bit. Grass is always greener, I guess Thanks for the recommendation, I will have to check that out!

Every time I read your recaps, I want to travel more and more! Your blog has inspired me. I love how freely you talk about your time wandering the world and all of your experiences! We love your blog at Hey Abigail

wow! what an exciting month. man, i wish i didn’t have a desk job – the spontaneity of all your travels sounds so amazing and fun. i read david leibowitz’s book too and love his paris food blog. also read “everything i never told you” and that was so so sad. for something more lighthearted (and if you like fashion / tech), check out “the knockoff” – i just finished that and it was hilarious! http://amzn.to/1NWhIvu

I love that you went to Lyon just to eat at a bouchon. I’ve also hunted down places and foods I’ve seen on Anthony Bourdain – it’s such a fun and tasty travel challenge! Well, usually. The “hand-picked mountain greens” I choked down in Greece at his urging tasted like weeds. LOL!

So sorry you missed Rome but it sounds like you more than made up for it. What an exciting month and you got to see some gorgeous places in Spain. Your reading list is putting me to shame. It’s July and I’ve only read a total of 5 books so far this year.

I’ll be in London in August! Will you still be there?? Also, your book reading puts me to shame.

oh wow the party next to the castle sounds amazing! I love those random nights like that and this is a really memorable one for sure! How weird that you couldn’t go back to the hostel drunk- silly rule but glad you defied it, had fun and didn’t get kicked out!

Northern Nevada, of all places, actually has a large Basque population…sheepherders came over and ranched and there are still quite a lot of them, especially in the northeastern part of the state. Reading your stuff about Basque country really makes me want to go visit there and see where they came from!

Sounds like you had an epic month with many adventures! I always find the unexpected destinations and change of plans wind up being the best ones… I love that you wound up in Spain and even walked a portion of the Camino!

I’m sorry to hear that Italy kind of underwhelmed you this time, but I have to admit our experiences last summer were pretty much the same (minus the dirty old trains—I was actually really impressed with the trains in Italy… way better than the ones I experienced back in 2005!). It was probably the country we were the most excited to visit in western Europe (England not withstanding!) and we left feeling like it was the one we’d be the least likely to revisit any time soon. I don’t have the same ties to the country that you do, but yeah… I get it.
