Trips To Book Soon: Where We’re Travelling When This Is Over
‘When it comes to Paris, I’m very much on the Right. Sure, the Left Bank wins on literary history and art-house cinema, but in Belleville, Pigalle, Batignolles, the streets feel less like a museum and more like home. It was my home, for a short while, and this is what I miss most: €3 subsidised film tickets, drinking en terrasse year-round. Most of all – as a flâneur who likes a view – I miss my Three Peaks Challenge (the higher reaches of the Parcs de Belleville and des Buttes-Chaumont, then to Sacré-Coeur). I’m used to popping over a couple of times a year to see friends, or for work. Come the end of lockdown, I’ll be first on the Eurostar.’ Huw Oliver, Time Out International
‘My wife and I were originally eyeing a trip to France this year, and I think it’ll still stay atop my list. We’ll explore every museum in Paris that we possibly can until our feet won’t carry us anymore, and decompress with a journey through the countryside. But it’s a small spot just over the border, one that we couldn’t make work on a previous trip to Switzerland, that’s atop my oddly specific bucket list of adorable animal destinations: Barryland, a St. Bernard museum full of chubby floofs-in-training at the foot of the Swiss Alps.’ Michael Juliano, Time Out Los Angeles
‘If I had to pick just one, I’d say Paris. I was half-planning a trip there before this whole thing started and I’d love nothing more than to stroll the crowded streets, wander through museums and just park myself on some lawn and sit there for hours.’ Virginia Gil, Time Out Miami
