Summary

Imagine travelling around the entire country of France on the back of a scooter for your honeymoon. 

Crazy, huh?

That's what today's guests plan to do in August this year - to ride around France in a big love-heart shape to celebrate their honeymoon. 

Oh yes, and the guests are me, your host, and my soon-to-be-wife Lina. 

Here's what you can expect for season four of The Earful Tower - the Honeymoon Season. Coming this summer.

And please, get in touch if you have any feedback, ideas, tips, suggestions, or empty chateaux in the French countryside.
