Micro-adventures are the new trend in France for discovering new destinations at the last minute! Inexpensive and not requiring much organization, it’s all the rage in these complicated vacation periods!
1. What is it?
Micro-adventures are defined by a few key points:
- Short-term, e.g. for a weekend
- Easy to make
- Inexpensive
- Close to home
- Environmentally friendly
This new mode of tourism is driven by a need to disconnect, to return to simplicity, to theessentials. The overriding principle of micro-adventure? The desire to respect the environment while discovering new places.
2. Why is micro-adventure interesting?
With little money and almost no organization, you can set off and discover new spaces. So why deprive yourself?
What’s more, with the current health crisis, you’re never sure where you can go, so you might as well take the opportunity to find out what your city/region has to offer. You’ll see, it’s always nicer to know something about where you live, otherwise when tourists come and know more about the place than you do, it’s sad!
Well, we don’t know about you, but for us, the shorter the stay, the more we tend to take advantage of it to do lots of things. What’s more, if you set off with a free spirit and no real plans, you’ll enjoy every activity even more! Discover historic monuments, little-known museums, little restaurants you wouldn’t have been able to get into if you’d followed a guide…
