Exploring Europe: Our Unforgettable Adventure

A few months ago, nine friends—including me and my husband—set off on an unforgettable European adventure, exploring the vibrant cultures of the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and France.

We wandered through Amsterdam’s Red Light District by night, stood in awe beneath the towering spires of Cologne Cathedral, indulged in endless cheese and chocolate in the charming streets of Switzerland, and shared an epic lunch high in the French Alps while soaking in breathtaking views of the world-famous Mont Blanc.

But the true highlight of our 21-day trip was driving through the northern countryside of France—from the charming villages of Brittany, like Sarzeau, Plonévez-Porzay, Roscoff, and Saint Malo, to the peaceful towns of Normandy such as Nouans-les-Fontaines. We cruised along hidden backroads, discovering picturesque spots, soaking in stunning landscapes and savouring varied, authentic French cuisine. This unforgettable journey led us to the crown jewel: the magical Mont Saint-Michel rising dramatically from the tides of Normandy. It was the perfect ending to a trip we’ll always remember
