Our journey started with a 14 hour flight from Santiago, Chile to Paris, a short layover there and later a one hour flight to what we are going to be calling home for a year, Montpellier.
Popping bottles to celebrate on the plane :p
Lac du Crés is a lake that extends over 6 hectares and was formed after a quarry explotation that ended in 1993. There’s space for barbecuing, bike riding, and designated areas to swim in the warm lake water. Also, there’s a small waterfall in which you are not supposed to bathe but, obviously , we did anyways.
It’s been almost 2 weeks since my arrival in Montpellier and it has been crazy. I’ve been busy settling in my apartment, getting paperwork done, and getting to know the city. And I have to admit when it comes to choosing between staying home and getting things done, or going to the beach or a pub, I have chosen the latter options.
Travelling is amazing, packing your suitcase for that trip on the other hand, not so much fun.
With only 3 days before my big trip, I am stressed out about my suitcase, big time.
Have you ever felt the desire to visit a place, but you are not really sure why?, you just know that at some point in your life you have to see it. I’ve heard a lot of people talk about how for some reason the would love to visit places like India, Egypt, Italy,etc. In my “Wonderlust” section, I will be featuring all the amazing places that I wish to visit one day.
Continuing with my China trip, during the time I spent there I took a 4 days river cruise on the Yangtze River which is the longest river in Asia (third longest in the world) and home to the largest hydro-electric power station; the “Three Gorges damn”.
Montreal is the largest city in “La Belle Province” of Quebec, and the second largest city in Canada after Toronto. During my summer of 2012, I got to make a little trip to this beautiful place for a weekend with 2 great Canadian friends.
