• Eat Sleep Drink: Paris

  

  In early May, Rick and I spent two days in Paris before heading to Amsterdam. As we’ve been to Paris numerous times, we decided to skip museum visits and simply enjoy being in our favorite part of the city, the Latin Quarter (5th arrondissement). Traffic getting from Orly airport to our hotel was challenging due…

• Fall in France: Barging on the Canal du Midi

After being grounded from travelling for almost two years due to the pandemic, we couldn’t think of a better way to restart our adventures…
