    The Jean Medicin area is so nice, trains are just on the street , with lots of restaurants, even a very stylish McDonalds, there's also a bookshop , shoestore, there's also a huge Galleries Lafayette, its so nice that in the restaurants their menu is displayed outside including the prices as well. Oh and the promenade de Anglais is soooooo beautiful and it stretches forever with all the different names of the beaches . We just sat on those blue chairs , relaxed , enjoyed the Cerulean blue beach and did people watching . I enjoy Nice so much , also I found out that the beaches when we were there are not sand but pebbles or tiny and medium stones which are painful to the feet but still very nice . We also enjoyed Monaco which we took by train and its only like 25 or 30 minutes from Nice, but the trains has a schedule. Your video is so nice and informative . We also visited Cannes by car but its far like 45 min to an hour when we arrived there. I can go on forever...

    I think Nice is a good spot for a bit of everything - medium sized, next to ocean, Swiss Alps, Cannes, Italy, Monaco, etc.

    Nice was beautiful! I visited summer 2022 and loved my time there. I will be returning after I graduated with my bachelors. Monaco is straight stairs 😅. When I do go back I want to venture out to Marseilles and take classes - perfumery, foods

    Great video. You didn’t mention Eze. That is the most beautiful village. The view from the cactus garden at the top is awe inspiring.
    I like the fact that Nice is still a big city so you have a seaside place but still a big city so there is always something to do. It’s metropolitan.
    I like how in depth you got on the video.

      @WhereTianaTravels  2 роки тому +5

      No problem at all! Yes, I'm pretty much fluent in French now after being here for 3 years but I didn't know anything at all before i moved here. I've actually got a video about my experience and my best tips for learning French here: ua-cam.com/video/kquyidrq6Bg/v-deo.html :)

    I just moved to Nice about a month ago- I really love it here perfect public transport, the beach, food, nature. Only issue is I feel like the street harrasment is so intese. Everytime I am out I get men coming to me, yelling at me, making sexual comments ect.

    • @WhereTianaTravels
      @WhereTianaTravels  3 роки тому +10

      Ugh I'm so sorry you have to deal with that :/ I think France in general definitely has a huge problem with harassment like that. I'm happy to hear that you like the city otherwise and I hope your experience gets better!

      @@UA-camdisco Listen I still think you should come if you want- The good outweighs the bad 100%. I am getting ready to move back home as my studies are almost finished and I don't regret it at all. I would say you just need to know some basic phrases to stand up for yourself and like any city walk with confidence.

    Very professional video, u seems like a nice person. I'm interested in France in general but worried about the language. I studied a little bit in high school but it's very hard language for foreign people. Feel more familiar with Spanish or Italian. Can u talk english with locals in Nice or general in France? What's are chances to get a job if u speak only english? Thank you for this info video

    • @WhereTianaTravels
      @WhereTianaTravels  Рік тому

      In Nice there are alot of people who speak Italian so you could get away with not knowing French at the beginning, but eventually most jobs will want you to know at least a little bit of French

      Cap d'Ail: La Pinede, La Reserve de la Mala
