Wanderlust Wednesday

Wanderlust Wednesday: August 11, 2010

Just got back from a quick getaway to Marseille, a city that’s only two hours from Nice but is a completely different atmosphere. Whereas Nice is one giant tourist attraction, Marseille has a hard time attracting tourists with its reputation for being dirty and dangerous.

Wanderlust Wednesday: July 28, 2010

Today, the best friend that I’ve made in Nice is leaving to return to England. It seems these days like everyone is leaving Nice to return to university or to move onto their next destination.

Wanderlust Wednesday: July 21, 2010

I just got back from a blissful, unplugged girlfriends’ getaway in Corsica: even though it was only three days, it was just enough to recharge and remember how much fun it can be to travel with a friend.

Wednesday Wanderlust: June 2, 2010

Another week, another Wednesday. While Americans are enjoying the short work week, I’m suffering through my first full week of school in weeks (there are four bank holidays in May in France!).  Even though the sun is out and I’m content to while away on the beach, summer travel season is almost in full swing…which [...]

Wednesday Wanderlust: May 26, 2010

Written by Christine Amorose, Online Community Manager for DIWYY. Wanderlust is defined as a very strong or irresistible impulse to travel. My wanderlust usually kicks in about midweek, when I’m struggling to finish my week’s objectives while simultaneously planning my weekend adventures. While I usually stick to writing about life on the French Riviera on [...]
