Hi. My name is Philip Cooper and I am author of the guide "Landscapes of the Basque Country of Spain and France, published in the UK by Sunflower Guides (http://www.sunflowerbooks.co.uk/product/walking-the-basque-country/). This is a comprehensive guide to the region featuring a variety of car tours and walks that cover all outstanding areas of natural beauty, some well off the beaten track even for the locals! In this blog I shall be writing regular articles that might be of interest to visitors to the Basque Country, including practical travel tips, food and wine (and Basque cider!), transport, accommodation, politics, sport, language - in fact, pretty much anything. Enjoy it and feel free to contact me with your opinions, additional information, criticism, etc. For further information about any of the above or about the guided and self-guided walks I propose in the Basque Country, check my website www.basquecountrywalks.com
