After two relaxing nights in the resort village of Champex, Switzerland, we were anxious to tackle the homestretch of the Tour du Mont Blanc.
A July trek along Europe’s Tour du Mont Blanc found us picnicking in some pretty spectacular settings. The Col Ferret, a climb up to 8,169 feet, forms border between Italy and Switzerland, and provides a spot for a well deserved rest.
Light and shadow create a beautiful contrast along the Tour du Mont Blanc.
Most of the cattle ignored us, used to the steady stream of trekkers along the trail. One curious cow posed for a snapshot as we traversed the hillside.
My husband and I write a travel blog together, carryoncouple.com and we recently completed a countdown of our 2018 top 10 photo picks.

I wanted to share this with any of you who might be interested in reading a memoir set along the Camino de Santiago in Spain. The publication date is drawing near.
It is said that the Camino can change one’s life. This is my husband’s story of our 2013 walk along The Way. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and you just might be inspired.
