France Impressions is a blog about my travels throughout France. Travel is about embarking on journeys, discovering new places, its people, learning from others and in particular, learning about oneself. I believe travel is an art and I like to craft trips and tours around your personality, interests, desires and dreams. I undertake to open for you 'doors that are normally closed" thereby ensuring you gain access to exclusive experiences while introducing you to extraordinary personalities.

Blvd Beaumarchais - A Happening Area In The Old City Of Paris
Between the Place de la Bastille and the Place de La Republique is the Blvd. Beaumarchais. This Blvd and area surrounding it is the backbone of an incredible network of design shops, trendy boutiques and stores filled with exceptional arts and crafts, half hidden down a series of delightful passages, cul-de-sacs and alleyways.
This extraordinary neighborhood is attracting the fashionistas of Paris, but for the moment is still managing to keep its soul and sense of living alive. So make the most of it before its too late!
The famous "Clown Bar" with its tiled decor of sad clowns is nearby and has been the meeting place for artists since it opened in 1907!
