  • Eurostar From London To Paris: My UK To Ibiza Train Journey - Day 1
    Hello guys and welcome to my first mini series “I Took The Train To Ibiza!” It has been a journey I have been thinking of for a long time!
    We begin at London, St Pancras for the start of our 2000km + journey which will be my first time on the Eurostar to Gare du Nord in the French capital - Paris. The journey took 2h 15mins to travel the 342km passing 75meters below the English Channel!
    Arriving into a very wet Paris I decided to tackle the Metro across the city to my hotel - popping out at the Arc de Triomphe and with views to the Eiffel Tower! Day 1 of 5 complete! Tomorrow….. exploring Paris
    Journey Details
    Cost of the Eurostar was £103 / 125€ for standard class ticket
    My Hotel
    Hotel Etoile Saint Ferdinand by Happyculture
    www.happyculture.com/en/paris...
    Price per night 99€
    I booked this sue to the location - close by to the Arc de Triomphe ( great place to start your tour of Paris) - Price 99€ per night, close to metro station and good selections of restaurants close by.

    Btw. I am planning to go to Ibiza by car. From the Baltic coast, through Denia. 2883 km. Maybe we'll try it in 2023. Our children are afraid of flying ;) We flew only three hours from Berlin by plane, but by car..... it's the trip of a lifetime. From Poland to San Atonio Ibiza Spain :)

    Hi Nick..Love watching your vlogs as we love Ibiza. My husband and I have holidayed there for over 30 years always looking at other destinations and always ending up there !!! We like the Santa Eulalia area and was wondering if you knew what is happening in Cala Llonga with the refurbishment of the Sirenis Cala Llonga ? Keep your vlogs coming. Many thanks if you could give us an update it would be appreciated.

      Thank you for that - appreciate the feedback! Ibiza is a special place and I know what you mean... you can travel many places but hard to beat Ibiza. I will try to get over to Cala Llonga a little closer to the summer - big changes everywhere on the island at the moment

    When arriving at Paris from St Pancras didn’t you have the impression coming in the third world? The neighbourhood of Gare du Nord is so dirty, dangerous and full of bad guys! By the way instead of drinking a coke and eating French fries you should have tasted a Sauternes with foie gras.
    Anyway have a good trip down to wonderful Ibiza!

    • @NickIbizahire
      @NickIbizahire  Рік тому

      For sure its pretty rough around Gare du Nord but straight onto the metro and into the city centre :) The day I left Paris (from Gare du Lyon) there was a incident with a knife at Gare du Nord..... can happen anywhere though so just have to be aware......

    Hi Nick, I have a rather peculiar question that is absolutely not related to your video. I am a fan of you and the White Island, hence the question is directed to the right person. We noticed that there is no direct sale of smoked fish in Ibiza... Here in Poland, by the seaside, you can buy and eat great smoked fish from probably around the world every step of the way. Halibut, eel, redfish, salmon, cod, herring, pollock, hake, tuna... Is hot smoked fish not welcome in Spain??

    • @NickIbizahire

      Hi!I'm from Spain and, from my point of view, we love all kind of fishes but, due to our weather, we really prefer fresh or salted ones acomplished with some mediterranean salad and a glass of white wine. Besides, I think that smoked food is more frecuent in coldest countries where this way of preservation is prefered. But, to be honest, a slice of smoked salmon with cream cheese on a piece of toast is the most

    • @haldeep3333
      @haldeep3333 Рік тому

      @@XentteWorld This explains why we haven't seen smoked fish in Ibiza. By the Baltic Sea, where we live, smoked fish is eaten hot straight from the smokehouse, even on hot days. It is such an attraction and a tourist tradition. Just like the popular fried fish with chips and salads made of vegetables and olive oil. However, very popular are smoked fish eaten cold, necessarily with pieces of bread. Smoked halibut and salmon smoked in "cold smoke" are the most popular here. However, the smoked eels are by far the best. my wife and I were wondering if such a business with smoked fish would have a chance to succeed in Ibiza.
