Calling all fans of Gothic architecture! The Strasbourg Cathedral is an absolute must-see. I was struck by the richness of the details on the facade and the unusual color of its stones. Definitely do not hesitate to visit the inside too! The stained glass windows are magnificent, the astronomical clock is a sight to see, and for those who take on the climb of nearly 300 steps, the view over the city will not disappoint!

The Abruzzo National Park is famous for housing a variety of wildlife in the heart of untouched landscapes. I loved hiking on the tracks of bears and wolves! I have to admit that they are well hidden, and to maximize your chances of spotting them, it is always better to be accompanied by a local guide. Among my favorite discoveries, I was really blown away by the hikes to Lake Vivo and Val di Rose.

Genoa is a beautiful surprise, rugged and rebellious. This port city is passed through way too quickly! I was charmed by its old town, so well hidden behind its barrier of highways. You have to take the time to explore its narrow streets lined with dilapidated palaces (some are being restored). I totally fell in love with Via Garibaldi and its majestic palaces.

Florence is a draw, but it suffers from that popularity. It is basically a real museum city (though a little less so than Venice). That said, it is true that the Tuscan city has undeniable assets. The timeless beauty of the Ponte Vecchio and the Duomo speaks for itself. The richness of the museums and the romantic Boboli Gardens also contribute to the appeal of this city that leaves no one indifferent. Get out of the busy neighborhoods to find the soul of this great city.

A beautiful little town set on the edge of its lake, Como is worth a stop. What I liked best was its beautiful cathedral. I took some time to admire its remarkable facade and its unique dome. Another must-see is the funicular, which offers a great experience and an original way to travel, with a stunning view of the lake as a bonus.

Bologna is a great city full of charm, and I really enjoyed its rich cultural side. For lovers of historical architecture, head to the monumental center, which is famous for its remarkable Neptune Fountain. Plus, the Red City is a foodie's dream! Between the great restaurants, the markets, and the specialty shops, you won't know where to look first!

This protected area is worth the trip, especially if you love nature and animals. In that case, head toward the beautiful Val Facina trail. I loved getting lost on the wilder routes where I was lucky enough to see chamois and marmots in abundance! Even in the middle of summer, you can find spots away from the crowds...

The hotel is very well located, in the center of Tours, between the SNCF train station and the city hall. The view from the window of Boulevard Heurteloup and the city hall is actually quite nice. The old town is within walking distance, as are the banks of the Loire, and the Vinci, a concert hall where we had a reservation. The common areas are very elegant and the rooms are clean and welcoming. The prices are fair for the quality. A lovely, charming spot that is ideal for a romantic weekend in Tours.

This resort is pretty big. It takes a good ten minutes to walk from one end to the other (from the entrance to the beach). It is like a mini village where it is easy to spend a week relaxing without doing much of anything. With young children, it is really nice. If you want to move around a bit and see the region, it would probably be a shame to pay for all these all inclusive services without having the time to enjoy them. I really liked the meals (the buffets as well as the a la carte restaurants are good quality), the friendliness of the staff, the pool dedicated to kids (with games, slides, the big bucket of water that tips over...), the pools and rivers that run along the rooms or fol…

Let's start with what I liked the most: the layout of the property, where mini jungles, waterfalls, and ponds are recreated. You will come across rodents, squirrels, monkeys, turtles, iguanas, flamingos, herons, swans, ducks, peacocks, kingfishers, toucans, fish... Some animals like the turtles or toucans are in enclosures, while others roam semi-free in the hotel jungle. Next, the rooms are clean, the bedding is large and comfortable, and the shower is spacious. Pool: great, large with beach-style entry in some areas. Beach: white sand, warm and turquoise waters, but very crowded. By walking about ten minutes to the south, the beach becomes a bit wilder, bordered by the jungle. Dining:…

Every time I come back to Venice, this city impresses me. The canals crisscrossing the city, and the locals using boats as their primary means of transport, give the city an exceptional look. The San Marco neighborhood is the most famous part of Venice, and for sure you have to visit, but I would not recommend staying there for the whole trip (except for the delicious hot chocolate at Café Florian). In fact, Venice is full of other exceptional places like the Ghetto, the Rialto market (a huge fish market), the Dorsoduro district, and the famous view of the Basilica Santa Maria delle Salute from the Ponte dell'Accademia, the pretty Cannaregio neighborhood, or even the two islands of Murano an…

Saint-Malo is I think, one of the most beautiful cities in Brittany. From the splendid walled city and its old streets, to the pretty Saint-Servan neighborhood, and passing by the Sillon, Saint-Malo is stunning.
