France
“In France, every winding road is a love song, and every village a verse waiting to be remembered”
France
France remains one of the most beloved travel destinations in the world, and for good reason. It continues to enchant travellers from every corner of the globe. For Europeans, it often feels close and familiar. For visitors from further afield, France is a dream woven from imagination and elegance. The combination of cultural richness, historical grandeur, breathtaking landscapes, and culinary excellence makes it a country you can return to again and again, and still find something new to fall in love with.
Over the years, we have travelled through France many times. From romantic weekend escapes to Paris, to extended road trips by camper through Alsace, the Champagne region, Provence, and the Dordogne. Each region has its own character, rhythm, and charm, and that’s what makes travelling through France so special.
Even before we travelled together, France already held a place in both our lives. As a child, Ella spent several summers camping here with her family. Geert explored various regions and visited cities on solo trips, and ofcourse visited Roland Garros many times.
On this page, we share our personal stories, favourite routes, and practical travel tips for exploring France. Whether you love picturesque villages, rolling vineyards, lively markets, or the smell of freshly baked baguettes in the morning sun, France invites you to slow down, savour, and simply enjoy.

Discover France, a country where timeless beauty, rich culture, and endless variety come together in a way few destinations can match. It may look large on the map, but France is incredibly easy to explore, thanks to excellent infrastructure, a mild and varied climate, and endless options for every kind of traveller.
Whether you are heading out for a weekend getaway or a months-long road trip, France adapts to your rhythm. In summer, the entire country invites you to explore, from lavender fields to city cafés. In winter, enjoy the sun-drenched south or hit the snowy slopes of the Alps for world-class skiing.
From Paris to Monaco, Strasbourg to Bordeaux, every city has its own character. Wander through the romantic streets of Paris, explore the elegant old town of Strasbourg, savour wine and surf culture in Bordeaux, or watch the yachts glide past in glamorous Monaco.
Regions like the Alsace captivate with half-timbered villages and vineyards tucked between hills. The Dordogne offers river valleys, medieval towns, and castles above the trees. The Provence bursts with colour in summer, lavender, sunflowers, and ochre villages under endless skies. And in Champagne, the names speak for themselves.
Coastal contrasts await too: the Côte d’Azur dazzles with Mediterranean flair, while Brittany charms with rugged cliffs, wild seas, and Celtic spirit. Whatever your season or style, France has it all, skiing in the Alps, cycling along canal paths, hiking in the Pyrenees, or simply unwinding in a vineyard with a view.
Travel by car, train, bike, or foot, France is built for exploring at any pace. There is structure and spontaneity, luxury and simplicity, grand cities and silent mountain trails.
Let our journey inspire yours, and discover France the way it was meant to be: one unforgettable moment at a time.
