I was very fortunate to have my big brother Peter joining me from Bordeaux to La Rochelle. I introduced him to the concept of Warm Showers, which is a similar platform to Couchsurfing but designed for the cycle touring community. We cycled part of the Eurovelo route 1, the Atlantic Coast route, which is predominantly flat and off-road. Delightful!
