This city strikes you right on the spot. And your life will never be the same.
You are not opening your guidebook but exploring great places on your own.
You are not feeling like a tourist but rediscovering your own life.
You are not looking for inspiration, it finds you in the middle of the conversation with the Sea.
You are not waiting for adventures to happen, you find that smile on your face.
You are not thinking of the things you like, you are surrounded by them.
You meet great people.
Nice has everything I could imagine for happiness:
- red rooftops. And you can't stop looking at them every morning out of your balcony.
- 300 sunny days. And even when it rains you know the Sun will be back very soon, and the next moment you catch yourself looking for your sunglasses.
- smiling people everywhere. And You simply smile back.
- planes, flying over the beach. And sitting on promenade you keep following them thinking of how pilots are lucky watching the view.
- fantastic fountains going up and down. And you start messing around with all those happy children.
- short distances. And you know you can go to the beach, get home, then go shopping to the centre, go for a drink to find some fine live music and then go to the beach again.
- breathtaking views. And you easily find your own not mentioned on the guidebooks.
- such a good live music on the streets and at lively bars. And you always sing your favourite songs and even start dancing the first.
- provencial stuff for your home. And you have no idea if they would allow you to take this all to the plane. But you risk to take home the part of Nice!
- local markets of all types: spices, fresh vegies, flowers, oils, berries! And you can't believe it's all for you.
- fresh seafood. And you can't get enough.
- any kind of ice-cream and the tastiest pastries. And you understand you'll have to go back because there is a hundred tastes you haven't tried but want so badly!
- people from all over the world. And you listen to their fantastic lifetime stories and create your own to remember.
And, of course, the Sea of THAT colour. And you can't believe it's real.
