Ah, France - a magical land where crunchy baguettes casually stroll arm-in-arm with stinky cheeses down quaint, cobblestone streets. It's a place where being fashionably late is just "being on time," and the wine flows as freely as the rivers of verbosity from any self-proclaimed philosopher at a local café. The Eiffel Tower presides over Paris like an iron-laced headmistress, reminding everyone to mind their manners but never forget to dream. From the twinkling nightlife of Paris to the serene lavender fields of Provence, it seems France has mastered the art of "la belle vie".

Toulouse is in the metropolitan region of Occitanie

Welcome to Toulouse, the "Pink City" of Occitanie, where the vibrant energy and rich history will sweep you off your feet faster than a toucan on a unicycle! Get ready to bask in the warm glow of the iconic pink-brick architecture, wander through cobbled streets that tell tales older than your great-great-grandpizza, and indulge in the local delicacy - cassoulet, a dish that's heartier than a bear hug from a rugby player. So, pack your beret, bring your appetite, and prepare for a whimsical adventure that will leave you saying "oui, oui!".
