Caption: I was really honoured to be asked by @igerslondon and @TurismoMenorca to be part of a crew, to visit and take pictures on this beautiful
Balearic island.
What awaited us was a busy schedule that included sightseeing, wine tasting, cheese tasting, gin tasting, trekking, kayaking, numerous gourmet meals and lots of fun in the sun.
It was a four day adventure of exploring and making great
new friends.

We trekked from S'Algar to Punta Prima and also visited the pretty little fishing village of Binibeca.
