How I Made the Most of Three Days in Nice, France
Hey, wonderful wanderers! If you've been tuning into my journey, you know I've been all about finding those sweet spots where culture, comfort, and a little splash of adventure come together. Just before my jaunt to northern Italy, I had the pleasure of soaking up the sun and the soul of Nice, France. Let me spill the tea on how those three days became a highlight reel of my travels!
Day 1: Sun, Sand, and Sweet Watermelons
Nestled in the heart of Old Nice, my temporary home was just a stone's throw from some of the most vibrant streets and stunning beaches you can imagine. Starting the day with the soft sand between my toes was a non-negotiable! The beach in Nice isn't just a place to tan—it's a community buzzing with energy. Picture this: the sun kissing your skin, the Mediterranean lapping at your feet, and vendors wandering by with the juiciest slices of watermelon you've ever tasted. Yes, it's as perfect as it sounds!
Day 2: A Luxe Day at Sea
Now, what's a visit to the French Riviera without a touch of luxury? We dialed it up a notch with a boat rental from Click and Boat. Finding a perfect fit was a breeze, and before we knew it, we were sailing along the southern coast with our own skipper. The freedom of the open sea, a delicious lunch aboard, and diving into the refreshing waters felt straight out of a movie. And let’s not forget the paddleboards! Floating over the crystal-clear waves, I couldn't help but feel a mix of gratitude and sheer awe.
Day 3: Train Hopping and Remarkable Meals
Our final day was all about exploration. The convenience of trains meant we could venture beyond Nice without a fuss. Each stop was a new discovery, from quaint cafes to bustling marketplaces that seemed to buzz with the life of a thousand stories. As the sun set on our adventure, we found ourselves at "L'épicerie Georges." Trust me when I say, dining there is an experience—each dish was a palette of local flavors, crafted to culinary perfection
Reflecting on the Journey
Sitting on the train to Italy, I pondered the whirlwind of moments we’d collected. These experiences weren’t just about seeing new places; they were about connecting— with the culture, the people, and ourselves. It's trips like these that remind me why travel is such a vital part of wellness. It’s not just where you go; it’s what you feel, learn, and embrace along the way that truly enriches your soul.
So, to all my fellow seekers of sunsets and serenity, remember: every journey is an opportunity to discover not just new horizons but new parts of yourself. Here’s to more adventures that inspire and transform us, sprinkled with a little bit of luxury and a lot of laughter along the way!
Stay curious, stay radiant, and as always, travel with heart!
with love,
