12-day trip to France
Shanvi is just back from a 12-day trip to France, which she spent exploring Paris, Cannes and Nice, among others
Shanvi's idea of a holiday
"If you really want to explore a city, you need to avoid the more touristy corners and head to the countryside"
Lots of walking around
While Shanvi spent a lot of time travelling between the cities she was looking to explore, once there, she did a lot of walking
Long-distance walker
On average, Shanvi would walk 14-15 kms a day. "That's my idea of being on holiday"
Feeling the vibe
"To well and truly feel the vibe of the city, you have to visit local cafes, talk to the residents, etc."
Nippy weather
Since it is still spring, Shanvi says that it was quite cold while she was there
Style game on point
Despite the cooler climate, Shanvi made sure that she was well turned out at all times
12 days was not enough
"Honestly, 12 days is not enough to explore most of France, and I am hoping to return at some point and see more"
'Paris is not for me'
"Paris is way too cosmopolitan and touristy. Every other person may just be a tourist from India"
Viral holiday picture
"I'd posted an old picture from a Maldives trip of me in a bikini before this holiday and people mistook me for Suhana Khan"
