As my departure is coming closer each week, I am dreaming of picturesque places to visit during August.
Flicking through the pages of my Lonely Planet travel guide for France, I am falling in love with so many places I didn’t even know exist.
Despite the fact I am going to be on a tight budget until I start work in the fall, I am determined to visit a few of these magical towns I have discovered.
#1 on my list being COLMAR
To me this town looks breath-taking. It may be a small town, but the architecture of the buildings is grasping my attention and making me want to go and photograph this marvellous place.
#2 MONT ST-MICHEL
An ancient castle on an island in North-Western France, who wouldn’t want to visit this?
#3 CHATEAU DE CHAMBORD
This castle looks like something of a fairytale. It is the largest Chateau in the Loire Valley and was built in the 16th Century.
#4 GIVERNY
Here you can visit Monet’s Garden, where he painted his famous painting of “Water lilies and the Japanese Bridge”.
#5 STRASBOURG
Another charming town that has caught my eye and only a 2 and a half hour train ride from Paris.
