One of my favorite things about traveling is the people you
meet. It is so inspirational and educational sharing thoughts and experiences
with others who have made the world their neighborhood. We have come across all
walks including, but not limited to, solo men and women, couples (some also
with dogs!), and babies!
This installment of Rovers, we feature Genn and Seb. A
French Canadian couple who early in their dating decided to spend a long
weekend together. With no set plan, they decided to drive to the end of the
road near where they lived, which would take them two days each way. Fast-forward,
and they set their sights on a longer road, The Pan-American Highway. So with a
ten month “schedule” and an economical hatchback, they began south to conquer
Mexico and Central America. We crossed paths with them in El Salvador as they
were on their way north. Genn taught me how to make woven bracelets, so if we
ever decide to become full on vagabonds we have a source of income. A card game
was shared that has spurred our competitive sides, as well as websites to help
find free accommodations along the way.
The greatest gift from Genn and Seb was introducing us to the choco-banano. A
frozen banana, dipped in chocolate that forms a shell over it, and sometimes
served rolled in peanuts. At 15 cents a pop, these quickly became a regular
part of our diet.
Gracias Genn and Seb!
