A Postcard from Mrs Claus

At Touriste we love receiving postcards, so we asked our favorite globetrotters to write to us…
We are happy to share this monthly pleasure with you !

From Paris

A little about myself …

I am the wonderful, the fantastic Mrs. Claus or Mother Christmas, as you prefer.

I am writing to you from …

I’m sending it from Paris! I let Santa handle the tour alone this year. I needed a few days of rest with friends.
The agenda includes fabulous nights at the Hôtel de la Boétie, a very long list of restaurants, and a lot of shopping because no one gives me gifts…

My Tourist moment …

I travel a lot for work, so when I’m on vacation, I try not to move around too much. In Paris, I do everything on foot! It’s wonderful. Well, I did almost get run over by a bike the other day on Rue de Rivoli…

The travel of my dreams …

Something simple… maybe a week of vacation this summer in Brittany. I dream of camping with Santa and the reindeer… I heard that a new place is opening not far from Pleumeur-Bodou.

In my suitcase …

Do you think I always travel with my red pom-pom hat?
I’m very organized but I bring a lot of things! I watch tutorials on YouTube to learn how to pack my suitcase well and fold my clothes neatly. I’m kind of the Marie Kondo of tourism.

My favorite tourist song …

Mine, of course ! Pierre Peret – Mère Noël

First Travel Memory

My first travel memory is aboard Santa’s sleigh. I had vertigo, but the city lights were so sparkling that my fear gave way to wonder. The miniature rooftops and illuminated streets were a magical sight.
Since then, I accompany him every year, except this year. Did I mention that I needed some rest…..

Regards,
Mrs Claus
