SAVE $100 with coupon code SOLO100 when you book by May 31st on the following singles only tours: A week in magical Paris with a small group of fellow travelers and no single supplement ever. What makes Paris Personally the best small group experience in Paris? Paris Personally is refined group travel that’s fun and never stuffy. Our
small groups are actually small – around 10 people. Group size is limited to give you a more personal experience. And trips are led by a full-time Parisian who speaks French (and English) fluently. You’ll stay in a chic, centrally located boutique hotel, dine in
charming Parisian restaurants, and see more than just the big museums and sites. You’ll explore Paris in a way that feels more like you’re with friends than part of a tour group. And after our structured morning outings, your afternoons will be all yours. We’ll help you decide what to do and how to get there, of course. Whether it’s French fashion you’re after, some deliciously
sinful treat, or just a walk along the banks of the Seine, we’ll help you make it happen! For details, including itineraries, click on the week-long small group trips link below. Our September trip is currently open for registration, and our “Christmas in Paris” trip will be posted
soon. Contact gina@paris-personally.com or visit https://www.paris-personally.com/small-group-trips to learn more.

My Price/Benefits Analysis of Travel InsuranceI have never, ever traveled out side the country without travel insurance. As you can read here, I’m proof that travel insurance is worth it! My price and benefits comparison shows that World Nomads is the best deal in most situations. Public WiFi Safety
Hotel WiFi, coffee shop WiFi… they are all public and without a VPN you can have your identity stolen and your accounts hacked. I use StrongVPN when going on public WiFi to do anything financial. StrongVPN also allows me to watch Netflix when I’m out of the country and get around WiFi firewalls in countries that have them. EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS
