Nice
Nice is easily one of my favorite cities in France, as it's really the hub for the Riviera and the Cote d'Azur. An adorable Old Town, tons of great restaurants, an expansive beach, and easily connected to other great towns up and down the coast, Nice is a perfect home base.
Marcel Bistro Chic
@hilaryinparis
Wow - this place is a GEM! On an adorable, classic old town street lined with tables outside, this was a great spot. Creative dishes, well-presented, and tasty. service was... French. The total for 2 apps, 2 mains, 2 desserts, and a 50 cl bottle of wine came to 120 EUR, or 40 EUR pp (but the wine was 38, so it would be a lot cheaper if you didn't drink). Worth it though, our wine was great too. They have one of my favorite domaines here - Minuty :)

Hello et bonjour ! I'm (another) American in Paris.
I've lived in France since 2016 and I loooove sharing my Paris & France recs in hopes I can help others love this city and country as much as I do. I'm quite confident I've seen more of France than most French people, so no matter what you're looking for, I've (probably) done it!

What I'm a great fit for: Mature travelers, couples, solo travelers, and families who enjoy soaking in authentic experiences, great food and wine, off-the-beaten-track gems, classic sites, and sustainable travel.
š± What's sustainable travel about? Traveling in a way that is kind to the environment, respectful of local culture, & supportive of the local economy. My trip-planning services are always through a sustainable lens.
ā What I'm not a great fit for: Travelers focused on bars/clubbing or high-end shopping.
