In my last visit to Paris I was hoping to see something new in the area I haven’t explored yet. That’s becoming increasingly challenging, as I’ve been to Paris quite a few times already, but the Paris region never fails to introduce me to new attractions within a daytrip. Sometimes I get Château overload, but even […]

This year I was fortunate to have a couple of weeks to spend in Paris and go and explore beyond what I already saw in my previous visits. I’ve been to Paris quite a few times, but it seems like every visit my understanding of the city becomes more nuanced, I notice different things, my […]

In my recent visit to France, I rented a car and did a drive towards the northwest to see Rouen and the French northwest coastline, to see Fécamp & Étretat. This is a photo summary of my trip, starting from Roeun, my visit to the NEOMA business school campus, and then the breathtaking coastline.     […]

In my recent visit to France, I was based in Paris for a few weeks, and then decided to rent a car and do a short getaway from the big city towards the northwest to see Rouen and the French nortwest coastline. I spent a lovely day walking around Rouen city, from the river bank, […]

In my recent visit to France, I was based in Paris, and decided to rent a car and head northwest towards the coast. I first made a stop in Chantilly, with a quick stop at NEOMA in Rouen, and then all the way up to the north-western coastline. First stop was the breathtaking Fecamp cliffs, […]

In my recent visit to France I had a chance to visit some of the local universities. I spent some time in Paris Nanterre University and roamed around Paris, but also had a chance to go visit Normandy and visit a former classmate now faculty in NOEMA, one of the French international business schools. It’s a nice […]

During the summer of 2018 I was invited to visit Paris Nanterre University and was hosted by some of the local professors. I arrived after several hectic weeks of student demonstration, so the campus was severely damaged, and filled with graffiti, all quite shocking. That tragedy aside, the old campus is quite compact and easily walkable, […]

This summer I was invited for a few weeks to Paris, and was looking for new things to explore in the area. A local I met who grow up in Chantilly strongly recommended I check it out, a quick daytrip from Paris, so I decided to rent a car and combine Chantilly with exploring the […]

Late last year I had a quick visit to Paris in gloomy cold weather. My previous visits to Paris were more pleasant in terms of weather, but the one perk of visiting Paris during the winter cold is the Christmas market, stretching out through the Champs-Élysées street all the way to the Jardin des Tuileries […]

Had a chance to revisit Paris again recently during gloomy cold weather before Christmas. The des Champs-Elysees street features a lively Christmas market and despite the gloomy weather there were lots of locals and tourists everywhere. At the end of the long avenue is a park that leads to the Louvre, and at the center next to […]
