We had the time, we had the money so we headed on a spontaneous road trip to south west France! The area down there is known for surfing, good food and chilled people. Perfect to spend a summer.

ExploreTwo nights in Biarritz
A beautiful city and surfspot
Biarritz is a lovely city with a bunch of sightseeing spots. The city offers you a lot of good french cuisine, history to explore or beaches to chill at or to take surf lessons. You won't feel any rush in this city. It feels like everyone is in a vacation mode and enjoying life at its fullest. The nightlife is also pretty good so make sure you check out the bars/clubs. Definitely a city to spend some days at!
Always an option!
Bowls, bowls, bowls. We mostly ate on this vacation and this was caused by so many delicious food places we found. Bali bowls was one of them. They offered a lot of healthy variations. As it was quite hot during the day and we weren't really in the mood for something hot it was the perfect fit for a lunch break. Check it out if you get the chance.

Way to good to not share it
If you ever get the chance to go to Le Mango Tree, do it! They offer natural based food which is delicious! We ate there every day because it was pricey, delicious and filling at the same time. They are sadly only located in Hossegor but as said, if you are around, don't miss out on it!
Delicious healthy poke bowls
Louvine offers you different poke bowls which are extremely tasty. If you are vegetarian or vegan or just want to eat good or healthy, give it a try. you won't be disappointed.
