For the first time ever, we completed our first full country, and in true RGE style, this was the world’s second largest country! But before approaching the border, which was [...]

As you may recall, we arrived in Vancouver quite late the previous night, and with the next few days travel-free, the team managed to get a good night’s sleep for a change. We woke up to the bright blue Vancouver sky with the faint smell of beach and sea in the air, so after a [...]
