Exploring France – In the Footsteps of Balzac is my latest YouTube vlog detailing some of my exploits as I travel to various parts of the world.
For today’s vlog, Exploring France with Landscape Photography, we take a journey along a trail dedicated to the famous French writer Honoré de Balzac.
Born in 1799 in Tours, he lived in Paris but would come back to central France to write. The area inspired the novel Lys dans la Vallée or Lilly in the Valley.
The trail that I came across pointed out several places such as towns, castles and old mills. So I thought, let’s take a journey along some of these highlights and give you more of an idea of what’s here in central France.
And if you’re interested in discovering the Loire Valley with a camera, then do check out my annual Loire Valley photo tour in May.
