Visit Loire Valley

The trip to Loire Valley didn’t start at its best for me. I missed my train for several reasons but such a thing can always happen when travelling. You have to always know how to deal with unexpected little problems and don’t let them ruin your day.

I remember that the Uber driver did his best to bring me at Gare Austerlitz on time but when I arrived there, I was five minutes late. This is how I missed my train and took the next one.

Orléans is approximately one hour away from Paris if you take the direct train. The Loire Valley tourism office organised a plan for me to follow during my visit in Val de Loire and picked me up from the train station in Orléans.

We had a small tour around the old little town, had an amazing lunch at Ver di Vin (Sabine et Laurent merci beaucoup, the food and wine was magnifique), took a bicycle and rode about 28km to Beaugency.

The bike ride and landscape were both peaceful and beautiful. However, I would suggest that you do that in a small group with friends and always check the weather before your departure.

A good idea would be if you rent an electric bicycle and have a couple of bottles of water with you. In the middle of the route, have a rest and pay a visit at the beautiful Jardins de Roquelin.

4 days in Paris

After a hectic week with 3 deadlines, I finished my tasks and hopped on a flight to Paris for a press trip organized by the official tourism board of France. I chose to spend 4 days in Paris, before I begin with the program of the press trip.

4 days in Paris

I spent a lot of time walking from one arrondissement to another because walking makes me feel good. It would have been a pity to spend time underground in the metro since the weather was so nice. And as I write this, I am asking myself: Do Parisians actually enjoy all this beauty around them, or do they take it all for granted?

One thing that also helped me very much, which you might want to consider getting for your trips as well, is a SIM card that I bought from Orange. I had a French number and internet everywhere, which helps a lot especially if you have one meeting after another. I downloaded the app citymapper and used it mainly for directions on how to get from one point to another by metro. That made the whole experience of getting around a big city as easy as it can be.

Although Paris must be the most beautiful capital city I have ever been, it was yet again the people that I met and the discussions we had that made my visit so special. And the last day of my visit, the day I had to take the train for Loire Valley, I realized that 4 days in Paris weren’t enough. I am afraid that even 14 wouldn’t be…
