Photography and Travel are two of Maman @photobyA4 's favourite subjects (with me of course).
After the success of my first calendar (with the theme "London Calling", showing our love of our home town), and with Maman newly available as my full-time assistant, we both embarked on a last minute Summer road trip in June 2017. The trip rapidly turned into a quest to make the 2018 calendar (and have fun!). It saw us add 4 countries or principalities to my "corguide" (corgi-guide) list in 10 days.
With a total of 11 countries visited in my rucksack to date (the aim was for 12, one for each month but... the 12th will have to wait), all in Europe, we decided to nickname the 2018 calendar "I Love EU" - showing our love of going to places together.
For the cover we picked one of our greatest memories to date: being the very first dog to be officially invited to visit the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in the Spring of 2017. For the fun story, when Maman saw that wall of flower she knew it was THE photo but as there was nothing for me to stand on she ended behind the scenes, holding my bum on her face, whilst the lovely Instagramer @meanderingmacaron pressed the shutter of our camera (for real)!
Here are the countries we visited for each month:
January: Paris (France)
February: Switzerland
March: Dublin (Ireland)
April: The Netherlands
May: Liechtenstein
June: The Dolomites (Italy)
July: Luxembourg
August: Bruges (Belgium)
September: Austria
October: Neuschwanstein (Germany)
November: Caerphilly (Wales)
December: The French Alps
Curious to see the actual photos now (and read the puns and "Marcelisms" also included)? Orders of 3+ Calendars will get pawtographed ;)
Le Calendar is available to purchase on my website (ships internationally - whilst stocks last)
