France — From Paris to Benest for a friends’ wedding, & a brief 24 hours in Bordeaux

France started because two people fell in love and ended with a spontaneous adventure into Bordeaux.

We have all heard of their wine … but no one has heard of their other gem—- the longest pedestrian shopping street in the world. 

They also have beautiful architecture, thoughtfully designed boutique hotels, and amazing restaurants focused (not just on food), but also art & ambiance.
