Macaron class

An expensive addiction! I thought I would learn how to make french macarons in a 210 minute class, but not so easy. The funny thing is that I didn't get into macarons until the year after my most recent trip to France.

Napolean's birthplace

There's something great about visiting a place you never thought you would visit. All I ever knew about Corsica was that it was part of France and Napoleon was born there.

Graffiti in Monaco

Train just arrived at Monaco station. Easy day trip from Nice. For me, Monaco was one of those places you visit once. Yes, it's impressive looking, but if you're not a gambler or shopper, there's not much else to do.

Air Corsica

Nice Airport getting ready to go to Ajaccio, Corsica. 

Bouillabaisse!

I was always told that Marseille was the place to get Bouillabaisse, but my friend and I did not plan any time there. Our train stopped there, but we did manage to good Bouillabaisse in Nice. It was great like I expected.

Paris, je t'aime!

3rd time to Paris. Always more to discover! What made this trip different was actually seeing other cities (Lyon, Nice, Ajaccio).

Back to France

Paris, mon chéri!!

I wasn't sure what to expect here. I don't speak fluent French & I was told that they don't like to speak English to tourists. I listened to Fast & Easy French while I drove, since I only took French for a half year during junior high school. Well, I was a wonderful experience and I'm ready to go back. Once the people realized how bad my French was, they just spoke English most of the time. Nobody was rude!
