Summary
Hello listeners!
France is a massive country with wildly diverse landscapes and breathtaking monuments. There's A LOT more to see than just Paris and Provence.
With this in mind, I've come up with ten things you should absolutely visit on your next trip, all taken from our recent honeymoon trip around the country.
This list is about landmarks, specific things to see, rather than beautiful towns (Annecy!) or pretty villages (Menerbes!).
I was going to list out the ten places right here, but I think it might be nicer to get a surprise by what crops up.
The full list is here on the website with extra info and pictures. And as I mentioned in the episode, if you want to see a 7-minute video version of this list, check it out on YouTube and subscribe for more footage from France.
