On the way back we stopped off in Luxembourg to visit my cousin Júlia and her husband Nicky in their fantastic house with a labyrinth of rooms for every type of activity – gym, preserves, workshop, sewing etc. They too have a camper van the same size as ours and so were well set up for van visitors. Júlia has a wonderful garden where she grows fruit and vegetables and then preserves them in jars and as bottled juice. We were treated to fantastic meals with virtually everything from the garden. Nicky goes out for a 2 hour cycle ride every morning at 6:30am (he has inspired me!) and before we left he sorted out yet another problem with one of our taps.
We left with a box of preserves and a huge bag of walnuts from her tree.
