Scorching weekend in Etretat
19 July 2021
In August 2020 (yes because at the moment we are far from the heatwave …) I had made a reservation for one night near Etretat (in a dormitory to reduce costs). What a good surprise it finally fell on the heatwave weekend in early August! Great to leave the Paris region and enjoy a good swim 😎. Usefull information Accomodation So I stayed in Villainville at domaine de la marnière a few minutes by car from Etretat. The place is…
A beautiful day in Chartres
30 June 2021
During my holidays in sables d’Olonnes the past year, I unfortunately broke down my car … It was therefore stuck at Chartes.

6 December 2020
During the first end of lockdown in May, I took a little walk in Paris, enjoying the sun and seeing something other than my (residential) neighborhood.

Needed to know that its construction is fairly recent, it was completed in 1923. It was voted “public…
Houlgate and the “flowered” coast
27 July 2020
During the 2019 Christmas holidays I had not really planned to leave Paris. But at the last moment I wanted to get some fresh air and see the sea!

I opted for the hotel Castel de Siam in the city center of Houlgate with the possibility of free parking in the street. And the…
