Annecy, France



There is a city outside Paris, by a beautiful name Annecy. Every year in June, it holds the world renowned Annecy International Animation Film Festival. Which, sadly, is also a period you have to avoid planning your holidays there - no hotels would be available as they would all be taken up by the visitors attending the event. It is a very strange place where the old medieval architecture is right smack in the middle of the modern city. That is also the reason it is very poetically enchanting. Peifen and I could attest to that since we both had the chance to see the place last year, on our separate trips.

I stayed at Annecy for 1 month previously to immerse myself in a French Summer Course with the Alliance Francaise de Singapour (French language school). It was definitely a wonderful experience and really a lovely place to be! I almost dont want to come back to Singapore after that ha! Maybe you can showcase some language immersion courses in your show next time! That wld be wonderful!
