For 715 years, from 1278 to 1993, Andorrans lived under a unique co-principality, ruled by French and Spanish leaders (from 1607 onward, the French chief of state and the Spanish bishop of Urgel). In 1993, this feudal system was modified with the titular heads of state retained, but the government transformed into a parliamentary democracy. Long isolated and impoverished, mountainous Andorra achieved considerable prosperity since World War II through its tourist industry. Many immigrants (legal and illegal) are attracted to the thriving economy with its lack of income taxes. To be updated

A day in Andorra Europe » Andorra

Building on mountain

After we got back from Paris, we decided to take a little day trip to Andorra. It was a nice drive through the Pyrenees, and we were able to get some decent pictures. We had booked a "spa" day at Caldea Spa. Unfortunately, we found it to be more like an amusement park. Nevertheless, it was still an interesting experience. Afterwards we helped ourselves to some delicious Andorra KFC! [View Full Entry]

Ohla! Buenos dios! Andorra was awesome!We had beautiful weather throughout the week (except for the last day..we decided to go shopping instead ). We stayed in a hotel in Arinsal and managed to snowboard on 3 ski fields! We were in Arinsal, Pal and Arcalis. The snow was great! Powder! Its picture postcard! Its the best snowboarding we've done!

Lovin outdoor plane boarding

Woooo Dude - So this is Andorra - The smallest country in the whole wide World - But there is so much atmosphere in this lil country it just aint funny. And with no tax on anything it was seriously cheap - like 4 euro for a bottle of Absinth - Hah -maybe that aint such a good thing - lol. So me, Paul, Johnny and Amy cruised to Andorra where we met up with Russ, Mikey and Stef. We cruised from the airport in our Renault Scenic which was awesome except for the Damn automatic handbrake which spoiled some of [View Full Entry]

Magical Andorra Europe » Andorra

The First Time

On a chilly Saturday afternoon I walked through a door which sported my lucky number 7 and found myself in an unprecedented situation.... I'll take it back a bit, My friend sebastian had decided to drive down to Andorra to purchase cheap fags and booze (as you do) so I decided to join him for the roadtrip. I invited another couchsurfer Steve to come up and join us and once him and his friend Josh confirmed their buses up I was all ready to go... except in the meantime Sebastian found himself a girlfriend in Toulouse and couldn't make the trip....

Road to Andorra

I really wanted to go over the Pyrenees into Andorra, this little country that is basically for skiing and shopping. We hit a snowstorm, which made it beautiful. I found some great buys for my little ones and Sarah. Also for Mark. I did't buy anything for myself. Marleen also found a good present. It was a little overwhelming. Lots of liquer stores and also a lot of folks buying it there at this big tax free discount. The ride was fun and the scenery was beautiful, so here are some pics of a snowball fight we saw. Too bad the [View Full Entry]
