Paris

📌 A short getaway to Paris because why not? We caught the Eurostar over and kicked off the long weekend with a french brasserie meal and a few pre drinks before ACDC at Stade De France. It was a big concert with a big crowd, there was rain, there was very loud rock and roll, there was a guitar solo that was way too long and there were fears the musicians might die on the stage 🤣 Overall a fun time and worth seeing in a cool atmosphere.

📌 Given we had both been to Paris, there were no expectations other then to enjoy food, drink wine and wander around. It is such a huge city we would always find something interesting, ofcourse we also visited the main landmarks. One afternoon thanks to Intrepid, we had a free private tour with a local around Montmartre talking about politics, art and history.

📌 A couple of food highlights included a delicious west African meal (horrible service), a incredible burger, a cheap banh mi lunch enjoyed in a hidden old Roman Ampitheatre park and ofcourse a few eclairs and croissants 🥐🥐 The drinks were just as good, a few breweries, some tasty wine bars and hanging out in the warm summer nights.

📌 On our final day we headed to Versailles, to admire the massive palace and it's gardens. Although we have seen many, it is definitely one of the most incredible examples of luxury and detail. It was nice to get out of the city and wander around for a few hours..Leggi altro
