Hi there!
Today, I invite you on a short visit to the “ID Weekend” fair in Nice, where all the tourist and culinary attractions of this beautiful region, as well as some neighboring ones, were presented. Several other countries also exhibited, showcasing their own attractions to visitors. Aleksandra couldn’t miss the event, having just finished her regular job at Cafe du Cyliste the day before – this event officially marked the beginning of her adventure “on her own.”
The three-day event was a great opportunity for her event agency, French Riviera Like a Local, to introduce itself to visitors. The mission of this project is to showcase the French Riviera from a local’s perspective – emphasizing on the local, slightly hidden attractions, unknown from the first pages of tourist guides. Interesting accommodation options, artisanal culinary products, and much more – you can discover it all with Ola’s help.
We invite you to visit her project’s website:

as well as her personal profile:

Keep your fingers crossed for the success of the initiative. It was born some time ago, and now it’s time for it to gain momentum! Keep it up!
Thanks for your attention, see you in the next episodes!
Krzysiek and Ola!
