• Bordeaux-sunshine & wine

    February 14, 2017 in France ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    Left Toulouse behind early this afternoon and headed by bus to Bordeaux. Can't say I was too fond of Toulouse. I have noticed that there are very few hostels in France and so it looks like most of my accomodations will be in airbnb's. The countryside is lovely in France and I saw people already pruning in the vineyards today. So this is where all the beautiful men have been hiding! It is stunning here. A huge pone add along the Garonne river where people were enjoying the 21 degrees temperature. Biking, walking, running, rollerblading and drinking wine in the brasseries. Went for a walk in the evening and it was even more beautiful. Men with baguettes, wine and flowers-Valentines Day. Drank some wine with Shui a Japanese restauranteur in the hostel last night as he was looking to import wines for his restaurant. Can't wait for the grand tour in the sunshine.Read more
