Having spent many childhood summers in France, I can say the country has everything you wish for, for every time of the year. From beautiful slopes on snow-capped mountains, to the lushest beaches and colorful lavender fields. Whether you like to taste champagne in a medieval castle like royalty, or go white water rafting near the Gorges du Verdon, it has something magical for all types of travelers. Don’t forget to check out Corsica at least once in your life, as this island isn’t called the Île de Beauté for nothing!
I get it, your first time on the slopes (or in a new ski resort) can be quite daunting. There are so many things you need to think about and plan beforehand, before you can enjoy the snow! That is why I made this skiing travel guide to one of our favorite places: La Norma, France. From where to get your ski passes, to what to pack: with my advice, you will be able to enjoy the Savoy cheeses and French wine in no time.
This February we once again embarked on our annual skiing trip in La Norma, with just the two of us this time! It being my third time there during the winter, I was already looking forward to the delicious tartiflettes and gorgeous cafés au lait. For GF first timers, though, it can be quite daunting. So, to help you navigate the snowy mountains of the French Alpes worry-free, and keep your gut healthy, I present to you this gluten-free skiing guide. Bon appétit!
Come with me to the magical city of Carcassonne, where medieval castles and gorgeous views of the Pyrenees await you. We passed it on our journey back home from Spain, and the city which was very near the top of my bucketlist did not disappoint. Yes, it truly is the fairytale people make it out to be. Want to know what we did, where to stay and where to eat, but most of all want to look at the pictures? Then keep on reading!
Ah, Douce France! With its gastronomical excellence and delicious wines, the country is a foodie’s wet dream. Every region has its own signature cooking style, making it a diverse place to tickle your tastebuds. However, the more rural regions of France tend to be a little harder to navigate for us gluten-free travelers and foodies. As dedicated gluten-free restaurants are almost non-existent in the parts of the Dordogne we visited, I have created this ‘kind of’ gluten-free guide to help you on your culinary journey!
Castles, hills, and forests: the Dordogne Valley is the fairytale region of your dreams. Great for families, couples, and friends alike, the region has quite some experiences to offer any type of traveler. The greatest thing about the top three things we ended up doing this holiday? It let us get active and explore at the same time! From cycling to finding the freshest produce for a night of outdoor-cooking, the Dordogne has it all.
Come along with us to the most-visited city in the world: Paris. The city of lights and city of love is known to many as a foodie paradise, and I was excited to give some of its restaurants, gluten-free bakeries, and cafés a try. From croissants to escargots, and from the Louvre to Montmartre, we saw a lot in the little time we had. So, read along for some inspiration!
