Bonjour
My name is Suz, and I’m addicted to France and all things French.
I also love to run. I’ve been running and cycling for fun and sport for as long as I can remember. In addition to completing two half Ironman triathlons, a 50-mile ultra marathon, several full marathons, and many half marathons, my husband and I enjoyed crossing Europe on a self-supported 2,000-mile bicycle tour from Amsterdam to Athens in 2022.
In 2023 we found ourselves back on the road riding from Amsterdam (best place to start a bike tour) to the west coast of France (La Rochelle).
In 2024, we resumed our adventure by picking up where we left off in La Rochelle, France and explored our way to Lyon, France.
This is my quiet eclectic space, where I focus on entertaining while informing via trivial information only somewhat relevant to the topic.
I truly hope it makes you smile.
Bienvenue Suz!
