Oui, c'est encore la belle France, from the bright lights of Paris to the rocky shores of Brittany/Normandy and the chic vibe of the Côte d'Azur - both deluxe and pas cher.

Read more…Robert Brands France´s ravishing, rocky island in the Mediterranean (which the French dub l´Île de la Beauté, the Isle of Beauty) is home to some of the sea´s most stunning beaches, ranging from the more developed strands of the south to the wilder northern beaches with few or no amenities. If you´re looking for a beachy getaway next summer - especially one that allows you to combine it with fabulous history, culture, cuisine, and eco opportunities - do give serious consideration to la…
Read more…Victor Block Naturally we started our trip off with a glass of wine at lunch - after all, it was too late for breakfast… “Deux verres de vin rouge – um, uh -- pas sec. Un peu…” Finally I just threw my hands in the air and laughed. I meant well but it seemed unfair to make our poor waiter suffer for my lack of fluency with the language. Our waiter obliged with two glasses of wine and a hearty, “Welcome to Provence!" Our first morning, COVID-19 vaccination card in hand, we left to explore…
Read more…Europe’s towns and cities famously light up and don holiday finery for Yuletide, but during the Christmas season in Colmar, in northeast France’s Alsace region – already famous for its charming historic quarter, with its cobblestone streets, canals, and half-timbered houses – the displays reach another level entirely, going far beyond lightbulbs adorning the main streets to the façades of the small houses in its old town illuminated in all the colours of the rainbow.

@Maria, it depends what sort of things you are interested in. Provence is beautiful. There are lavender fields, wineries, art galleries and perfumeries to visit - and more besides. it is also a nice area for walking. Closer to Paris another place of interest could be the Alsace, Strasburg,Colmar and the Vosges National Park - a kind of fairy tale region full of half-timbered medieval villages and vineyards. Or, a little bit on the wild side, Brittany is also very beautiful. This is an area with many megalithic monuments, stone circles and menhirs. And the coast is beautiful, but it is often quite wet. But if you want something more glamorous, head for the Cote Azure, Nice, Cannes, St. Tropez... If you enjoy hiking and climbing the Alp or the Pyrenees would be perfect, though Alps might be easier to get to from Paris if you have so little time. You could fly to Geneve and go from there.
So many places - so little time!
