From all the pictures that I’ve seen, this place is beautiful. It is a skiing paradise for anybody that likes the snow, and winter sports. There is a lot more to do than that. The reality is, that the majority of the attractions all mountains. It makes sense, it is a skiing resort. If you don’t like the snow or the cold, there are other things to do. But this place won’t be for you.  

Chamonix is beautiful! I would be okay with only spending time around town. I know it is an expensive place to stay. But it is a goal I don’t mind spending on. I would love to visit their glaciers and their parks. All their pictures look stunning. The greenery with the view of the snowy mountains. It will all depend on what time of the year I go. But I’ll prefer to go during Spring. That is my favorite time of the year to go traveling anywhere.  

It’s funny that I couldn’t figure out which country Chamonix belonged to. After a Google search, it made so much sense that it was part of France. It was hard to guess because Chamonix is located between three country borders. They are on the French border with Italy and Switzerland on the other side. As if I couldn’t tell by the name and all the French words I had to sort through. Geneva and Chamonix aren’t that far from each other.  

There you have it! A new Things To Do post. While posting this, I am currently on my trip to New York. I bet I am enjoying myself as much as I can. Because this is the only trip I’ll do till next year. Unless I struck lucky and got the chance to travel again. It will be only a week, but I have planned enough to make it all worthwhile.  

So please wish me good luck and have a nice day!

Do not forget to give me a visit at The Senspirational ArtRoom. All I need is your support and you can do so by going to my Patreon page. Or go to see my older drawings at DeviantArt. There are also many other sites that I am currently active in. Never forget to add me on Facebook, Twitch, Instagram, Tumblr, and Pinterest. Well, I’ll leave now. Be nice to others and have a nice day!

See you all later and take care,
