The concert and fireworks on the Eiffel Tower for Bastille Day were an incredible start to our Paris sojourn. In addition to the big splash on Bastille Day, there were many other opportunities to see live music and Paris and we endeavored to take advantage.
We Saved Money by Spending 3 Months in Paris
Last year when we discussed where to go this year, Paris was at the top of the list. We decided that three months would be a good amount of time for us to explore the city and study French.
What Is Paris Like Now?
The first stop on our 2nd excursion in France in 2020 was Paris. It had been a number of years since either of us had been there, so we figured it was perfect for our roving retirement exploration.
Getting Into France Now
Our roving retirement plan has always involved exploring France, Spain, Portugal and the rest of Europe. Obviously, that didn’t work for us this year but our plans hinged on getting back to France this year for our visas.
