Do you like croissants too? It is the last week of the Olympics in Paris, so for friends visiting or those thinking about going someday, here is a fun random recommended things to try from our 2-day visit to Parisβ¦.Hopefully, you can stay longer and you should probably check out the art and historical sites, but since this was not our first time to Paris (I spent a little longer there after I did my TED talk back in 2015) for this short but extended layover we had a little fun just focusing on π₯ croissants. Time flies I never got a chance to post because we took a no-posting vow hoping to be more present rather than online for these 2-3 days following a big event that marked the end of a lot of work for a specific accomplishment (I have to wait to post about that later because I promised a couple of exclusive things to a media group so it has to be featured in their piece first π) and then I just havenβt had a moment to put anything together, but this layover was just for fun because life is short and @JuanSharks and I are both croissant obsessed, lol. So I hope you enjoy this little travel piece and if you want to see the rest of places and things to try you can watch the full 3 min recommendation video and see the most famous croissant place in Paris π on my youtube where Iβll probably share more travel videos from places weβve gone or passed through for sharks like: Egypt, the Maldives, Caribbean, French Polynesia, Australia, and more for those looking for recommendations especially around shark/ocean or adventure travel comment below or follow me on youtube and comment a π₯β€οΈ if you love croissants too.
