Shoyu Ramen / Shio Ramen / Tori Paitan Ramen / Black Sesame Ramen / Hiyashi Chuka at Kodawari Ramen in Paris
Jidori shoyu soba, with additional ajitama egg. The noodles are made in the shop.
Decent ramen for Paris but quite overrated.
Observatory of Tour Montparnasse
The Tour Montparnasse is a 210-meter office tower in Paris. It was the tallest building in France until 2011. Its roof is open to the public and provides a great view on the city.
Mont Rond / Col de la Faucille
Last winter, on Christmas day, I went to Col de la Faucille, in the French Jura near Geneva. There is a ski resort there but there was barely any snow. I took the ropeway to the summit of Mont Rond and walked around for a bit.
Dan Dan Noodles / Spicy Noodle Soup at Trois Fois Plus de Piment in Paris
It is possible to choose the spice level from 0 to 5. I got level 1 since I had read it was very spicy but it wasn’t really though…
Arc de Triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe (Arch of Triumph ) is one of the most famous landmarks of Paris. It stands in the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle at the western end of the Champs-Élysées. The top of the monument houses an open air observatory with a good view on Paris.
Walk in Paris #3
At the end of the summer, I had to be in Paris for one day. I walked around, first to Montmartre and the Basilique du Sacré-Coeur. Then I walked to the Centre George Pompidou before going to the Gare de Lyon railway station.
Hike to Mont Charvin
For my last hike of the summer, I went to Mont Charvin, a mountain in the Aravis range located near Faverges. I followed this itinerary.
