Catalonia Grand Tour through the Pyrenees
A road trip through the Catalan Pyrenees becomes a slow journey into the heart of Catalonia: glowing mountain light, wild rivers, hidden valleys, Romanesque gems and villages where time lingers in the stone. The Catalonia Grand Tour ties it all together – a route of flavours, stories and landscapes best explored at the pace of curiosity.
Southern Ethiopia’s Gamo Highlands
In Ethiopia’s remote Gamo Highlands, time flows differently. Here, sacred valleys whisper ancestral laws, and land is governed not by fences but by tradition. Over three days, we hike through misty mountains, sleep beside waterfalls, and learn how the Woga system – a centuries-old code of balance – still shapes daily life. Welcome to a world as timeless as it is alive.
Kayaking Guna Yala, Panama
Few places on earth have endured a more tumultuous passage through history than Panama, a narrow land bridge that has funneled humans, dreams, and empires for thousands of years. Yet somehow, despite all that movement, a two-million-hectare forest and one of the most intact indigenous cultures in the Americas still thrive here. Somewhere out there, in the turquoise maze of the Guna Yala archipelago, is where WideOyster’s Frits Meyst points his kayak and curiosity.
