                But you haven’t got to far to go. Hop over two borders and you are home. We spend 2 years ago a few days in Colmar. A most beautiful place to visit. Posted 4 years ago

                  Haha yes I was referring to my hopes of returning to South America, which I hope I'll be able to do early next year.
                  Meanwhile, can you believe I've never been to Alsace!?                   Posted 4 years ago
