Travelling with children often means negotiating: a little beach time for some, an outing for others, something to spark their curiosity and, if possible, a Plan B for when it gets too hot or the weather turns. In the Region of Murcia, finding that balance is surprisingly easy. The Mar Menor and the Mediterranean for […]
Granada is usually associated with the Alhambra, the Albaicín neighbourhood, terraces with sweeping views and the peaks of Sierra Nevada. But simply follow the road south to discover another side of Granada: the one that meets the Mediterranean, among whitewashed villages, cliffs, small coves and plantations of avocados, mangoes and cherimoyas. The short distances make […]
There is more to Seville than its most visited monuments. This two- or three-day itinerary explores Triana’s workshops, the patios of the northern districts, neighbourhood markets and historic towns across the surrounding countryside. Day 1: Triana, ceramics and the opposite bank Start early at Triana Market, when the stalls selling fruit, fish and cured meat […]
Paris can also be explored away from monumental façades and routes that link one landmark to the next. Simply choose a neighbourhood, take your time to walk around and let a market, a bookshop or a canal shape your day. These four routes reveal the city’s everyday diversity, and are ideal for those who already […]
In Ajaccio, the journey begins with listening: three voices entwined in a church, Corsican words at the market and, in the evening, guitars and conversations by the sea.

Among cheeses, antiques, flowers and glasses of wine, Toulouse’s markets reveal the most everyday and delicious side of “the Pink City”.

From aristocratic palaces to local markets and creative workshops, Palermo expresses its identity through what it wears and makes: linen, ceramics, embroidery, jewellery and Mediterranean colours. Palermo does not subscribe to a single aesthetic. It layers many of them, often seemingly irreconcilable: the solemnity of an aristocratic palace and the faded awnings of a market, […]
When July arrives and the Mediterranean coast is filled with parasols, Castellón’s refreshing inland secrets beckon. Just over an hour from the coast, the province’s interior swaps sand for limestone, waves for the murmuring of rivers, and beach bars for quiet villages where summer moves at a different pace. You can still come here in […]
When July arrives and the heat sets in, Rodez invites you to look beyond its historic streets, museums and cathedral.

The eastern coast of Asturias, with its cliffs, wild beaches and fishing villages, invites families to follow dinosaur footprints on a journey along the Cantabrian Sea. Asturias is often imagined as a green, seafaring and mountainous land of endless meadows, cider-scented villages and beaches hidden beneath cliffs. However, the eastern Asturian coast reveals another, more […]
