#2 First Day Trekking in the Himalayas by @jessestlouis

We took off from Taplejung, Nepal to start our 3 week trek into the Himalayas to hit the North and South Base Camps of the third highest mountain in the world, Kangchenjunga. This early stage off the trek takes us through tropical jungle-like landscapes full of rice fields, banana trees and the blue waters of the Tamur River. Watch the full video here:

#3 Trip to Islas Cíes - Vigo | Spain " With a short stop in Pontevedra for lunch" :P by @aleister

Today we will continue the itinerary through Galicia in Spain. After a short stay in Sanxenxo and already preparing the trip back home, we decided to leave early to spend a day on the Islas Cíes "Cíes Islands" once they are on their way. The Cíes Islands are located in Galicia, near to Vigo shoreline, very close to the north of Portugal. They are accessible every day in June, July, August and September, and in May and October only on weekends from Friday to Sunday, but the best time to visit is in summer, for the obvious reasons you will see in some of the photos I will share below ☺
