Tips to France and Some foods pictures

Dear readers, Kikey is boring to blog about her France's trip already. So this will be the last post about France. Even though I didn't post all the places that I went, but I did posted all the very interesting places to share with you.

As I promised, this is all the tips I can provide, if anyone of you want to add other useful tips, please do so in comment. I will add in here.

Tips as below:
1) First of all, visit any Europe countries before 26s or have a student card, you can get discount for almost everything!!!

2) Try to make your trip to Paris on the first week of month, because most of the museums are FREE on the first Sunday of every month. Included all those famous museums: Musée du Loure, Musée d'Orsay, etc. (I had save some money because of free visited)

3) Different museums or interesting places have their own closing day. Remark them when you plan your itinerary. (I had plan a perfect days for myself :p)

4) Prepare Euro in bills (纸币) and coins (硬币), because almost all the machines only accept coins or bank card. (I don't like use my bank card in foreign country cos will get some charge)

5) If you backpacking, you probably will stay at HOSTEL instead of HOTEL, then remember to check whether they provide bed's sheet or not, if not bring your own single size bed sheet or you can rent from hostel with some money. (I don't think is heavy, so I bring my own from home)

6)Book train ticket as early as possible, because the EARLIER you book, the CHEAPER price ticket you get!

7) £ 2,500.50 (two thousand five hundred and fifty cents) in French they write in €2.560,50 so don't get confuse.

8) Even you don't how to speak French, please learn some basic words or sentences, and get a small French<->English phrase book for traveller, it help a lot! When conversation stuck, the BEST language is BODY LANGUAGE! （比手划脚）(I used quite a lot of time body language :p)

9) If you feel difficult to speak French, write them down in your note pad, especially when you buy train ticket! Write on the paper about destination and time.


The following sharing with you some of the things that I had tried in France:

Crêpes - One of the MUST eat in Paris. Quite like the British pancake that I posted last time. View the video if you want to see how it make and have a handsome French's guy at the end :p


My nice lunch at Paris, French's open face sandwich and a glass of beer. That was the first time I had beer at lunch :p


Omelette - Mt St Michel famous about this omelette. For me, that is nothing special than the one I normally had.


The lunch at Marseille - After I ate the seafood, I couldn't eat the sandwich at all, so at the end, the sandwich was became my dinner :p


My favorite, It's called Paella!! (Thanks to Jo and Alexander told me the name.) I had this at Arles, I love it so much!! It's a Spanish meal. (Rice, chickens, prawns, mussels, carrots, peas.)
