I promised my fiancé that I would not do any reporting during our vacation in France. After three years of supporting me through a master’s degree and jobs in Toronto and Qatar, I think he earned the right to put his foot down. But that didn’t stop us from participating in some journalism-esque activities.

We bought a GoPro camera and filmed everything from drives around the French countryside and village visits to go-kart racing, ice bucket challenges and a ropes/zipline course called Acro Lugny.

It wasn’t your average trip to France, but we had a blast! I even got to play around with the footage using iMovie when I got home. Check out what we got up to on our Burgundy adventure.
