Walk around La Defense – modern art and architecture (plus a glimpse of Neuilly sur Seine!)
This weekend we decided to walk around La Defense – a business district, which is technically not a part of Paris, but is considered to be a part of it nonetheless by non-Parisians 🙂
I love this district and with my office being there, visited it almost every day. Since the pandemic hit, I’ve only been to the office once and to La Defense only a few times in total, so it was especially interesting to walk around and to take a look at how it looks now. The biggest changes are is that it is now virtually empty – and there’s some new residents there – never seen ducks in the fountains before! 🙂
Day trip from Bordeaux to St Emilion
On one of the days during our summer trip we decided to go to a very lovely town of St Emilion near Bordeaux.
It is quite easy day trip from Bordeaux and you don’t even need a car to reach the place – it’s enough to jump on a train and you will be there in about 30 minutes! When there, you can either walk to the town or take a local shuttle (make sure to check out the schedule on the local tourist office website!).
Let’s go!
Weekend walk in Paris – Coulee Verte & Place de la Bastille
In one of the weekends we decided to walk on Coulee Verte – a raised walkway built on top of disused elevated walkway. The walk is really pretty, enjoyable and a great way to spend your weekend!
Let’s go!
