    For the second time, I spent a moment out of time. Exciting and passionate, Julien lovingly transmits his heritage and the history of his lands. A must do if you can! Milesker, Julien.

    What a great encounter during this Night hike "La Nuits de Basajaun", with Julien our guide, a kind, dynamic young man passionate about the History of his Region. We followed him by lantern light along the smugglers' trail along the border with Spain and took advantage of the stops to listen to him tell the legends of his country, richly illustrated by projected drawings on the rocks. Final bouquet where we find ourselves protected by the vault of a small cave to end on an even more intimate note and share a tasting of local products selected by Julien. Thank you very much for this special moment during which you were able to show us your passion for Basque Mythology, your universe is like a parenthesis in time, thank you for your confidences and the sharing of your childhood memories with your Grandmother, we let's have a great season, don't change anything, stay who you are and how you do it, Yours sincerely, Sebastian
