One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trip to Sainte Marie de la Mer we finished drunk on the beach and we didn't have place to sleep, in the end met a guy next to the port and let us stay in his caravan drinking absinthe and wine, next day give us a lift back to the road.

Sneaking in the music festival in Sahara, I don't even like that much electronic music but I guess not every day is an opportunity like that

Travelling in caravana for 2 weeks south of Morocco.

Hiking adventure with my girlfriend in Atlas Mountains without tent, sleeping bag and all the proper equipment I should take, short story we got lost for more of 14hours (she still says we didn't) was super cold we were tired, hungry and desperate but in the end we found the cottage in midnight.
