I spent some time in France last year and it was definitely one of my most favorite travel experiences. No matter how much I loved Paris, it was really the south of France and the Cote D’Azur that really got me. It was the most romantic and beatiful place I think I have ever been. Walking around Paris I got a feeling that everything had been manufactured for tourism. The lack of sidewalks and grass and the presence of only loose gravel in their place I felt really took away from the beauty that the city had to offer.

Walking around Nice, though, gave me a feeling unlike any other city. The Promenade des Anglais is an incredible walk from one end of the city to the other along one of the world’s most famous coast lines. Sunsets along the beach there always seemed to cast perfect light upon the city from any view point you could find. Meeting people was particularly easy as I found that most of the French people in this region were incredibly friendly and would always try to make new friends. I met some of my best friends in Nice and shared some incredibly romantic walks through vieux Nice to watch the sun set over the city and the Mediterranean.

Anyways, while I was there I managed to take more than just a few pictures but I didn’t have a video camera. I found this video on Vimeo and it brought back some incredibly romantic nostalgic feelings. There’s nothing quite like dating in the South of France. I’m honestly considering buying another plane ticket so I can get over there and visit some old friends. Mon Dieu, Nice est belle.
