In my planning of World Tour 2015, I thought two nights in world's 16th smallest country would be enough to check the 700 year old principality off my list. I quickly realized that would not be enough time so I decided to double my stay within the first few hours of exploring this fascinating place tucked away in the Pyrenees Mountains . Once the bus pulled into the station, I retrieved my bicycle and cart out from the compartments below and set off to see the highest capital city of Europe - Andorra la Vella. As I spun around the cobblestone streets, I saw the beacon to travelers worldwide - the "i" for information and some local insight! After parking my bike out front, I stepped into the information center to grab the ever-so handy maps, guides, and of course local wisdom! I gave my morning greetings in Spanish to the lovely lady behind the information desk followed and she responded happily in Catalan. I shyly smiled and then asked in English what information she could send me with for my stay in her country.
Keep in touch with Trevor as he makes his way across the world and read his story as each step is made!!!
