Bordeaux
In 2009, I made a roadtrip through the south of France. Starting from Barcelona, we took Montpellier as our “base of operations” where we rented a gîte at a very good price. Being in the middle of the Côte d’Azur, every day, we made day trips to the surroundings:
In 2010, we again traveled by car, this time along the coast of Northern France from Paris via Chartres, Rennes, Dinan, Saint-Malo, Mont Saint-Michel, the Route du Débarquement, Rouen and Giverny.
French highways are a bit expensive but comfortable and safe. The secondary highways are also characterized by their excellent state of preservation and allow you to get to know the country better. The speed limit on freeways is 130 km/h, on dual carriageways 110 km/h and 90 km/h on two-way roads.
France has a varied and temperate climate. In the northwest, temperatures are influenced by the Atlantic Ocean, so there is more humidity and winters are milder. In the east, the climate is continental so winters are colder and clearer and, during the summers, the weather is stormier. In the south the climate is more Mediterranean and we will have warm summers and mild winters.
