Escapade à 2h30 de Mazatlán en pleine montagne : la Sierra Madre

A few days in Charlotte, NC
Charlotte was a wonderful discovery to me. Until now, it had only been a city through which I had flown. Now, I know it’s a young, lively and beautiful place to live in. Full of colours, great cafés and breweries. Hopefully, we’ll be back! Huge thanks to our friend Travis for letting us crash in…
