Legit concerned about this for my upcoming trip in June lol. Recent pictures were wild.

Beyond the typical Eiffel Tower and Louvre tours, you might check out the Normandy Beach battlefields or visit the famous Mont Saint-Michel castle! I have links to view tour ratings and purchase tickets - feel free to comment or DM if you’d like to see more.

+ Pont L’eveque town
It’s where the famous cheese is from, an adorable village, and some of our favourite restaurants of the trip were definitely there

Hi. Best advice for you. I’ve been to Paris twice & going in late April for the third time all at different ages. Every single time, I have done the Blue fox bike tour in Versailles starting in Paris. Every time it’s been the best day of the vacation (did it as a kid, teenager, and adult). It’s an amazing day. Your guide meets you in Paris with a group, hop on a quick 30 min train ride to Versailles, where your day is filled with a stop at a local market to get lunch, and then biking around the chateau’s grounds and Marie Antoinette’s house. The reviews on this trip are literally always 5 star everytime I look. Idk how my mom found this thing, but it’s the best part of every single Paris trip and I can’t wait to go again next month.

What are your plans for provence?Aix is cool for a day—but I think the star is renting a car and exploring the little villages. Are you taking the train down or flying? It’s a bit or a hike from Normandy and Paris.

Awesome. Appreciate the recs!

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
