Taking a hot bath in the desert

Hossine’s village was nice but I was looking for something more remote to spend the work week. The hot spring near Fask in the middle of the desert sounded like the perfect place to work in a relaxed environment. The...


Exploring the mountains

We broke up our Mercedes gang last Friday after spending two and a half weeks at the cliffs north of Aghroude. I drove a few kilometers down south and spent the night at Plage Aourir where I enjoyed a beautiful...


Doing some body work on the cliffs

Hanging out with the Mercedes gang

On Friday evening, I left Cádiz after spending a couple of sunny and lovely days in the Spanish harbor town. My weather app forecasted stormy and rainy weather. Nothing that I wanted to experience right at the beach front. Even...


A quick trip through the Algarve

I will be spending Christmas together with my family and friends in my hometown. Instead of traveling 5,000 km by van, I booked a flight and will park my van at a friend’s place near Faro. I had a free...
