Special Offer for Summer 2015!
Are you going to Paris this summer?
Would you like a free copy of my best selling travel guide, Michael Brein’s Guide to Paris by the Metro?
If so, please see the Special Offer below.
Travel Tales Collection, Paris & France Stories, No. 11, June 2015, is part of Michael Brein’s Collections travel tales series and contains among the best stories from Michael’s huge collection of travel stories that he has gathered in interviews over the last four decades. I’ve interviewed nearly 1,750 world travelers and adventurers in my own travels to more than 125 countries throughout the world. I am weaving their 10,000 or so fantastic travel tales into a psychology of travel as revealed by these very telling stories.
These are travelers I’ve met on planes, trains, buses, ships, tours, safaris, and in campgrounds, cafes, and pubs. These travelers have freely shared their most personal travel tales with me, which I, in turn, get to share with you now through my Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series, in general, and the Travel Tales Collections, here, in particular.
Each Collection features a group of similar noteworthy travel tales of a kind, all on a very specific travel subject, theme or country. The travel stories appear in Travel Tales Collections as a waypoint along their way into the ebooks in my Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series.
Travel tales are told here—but with this one unique difference—with my being the world’s first travel psychologist, you’ll get more of the psychological pay dirt behind the incredible travel tales told to me by these travelers.
About this Collection
Paris is by far my most favorite city, not only in Europe, but in all the world. And I love France as well. And while modern Paris is always exciting for me to visit, it is the old Paris that remains particularly etched in my memories.
I got to know Paris particularly well when I researched it for my travel guide series to sightseeing by public transportation (Michael Brein’s Travel Guide to Paris by the Metro).
Although you could say that I popped in and out of holes in the ground (the Metro!), I still walked a great deal all around Paris. Maybe I can almost say that I know Paris like the back of my hand!
It is only fitting, then, that an ebook on Paris and France should be included in The Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series.
A Paris or France travel story is probably somewhere in the news today about something or other that is going on with a traveler in France!
And so it goes. There’s hardly a day now that someone is not having an incredible travel experience in France of one kind or another. Therefore, we’re taking a closer look at Paris and France stories in this issue of Travel Tales Collections.
Since France has so much to offer the traveler in regard to the psychology of travel, we should take a much closer look at what actually happens to people while traveling in France. And so, in The Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series, that’s exactly what I am doing in this current issue of Travel Tales Collections No 11 for June 2015.
Paris and France travel-life stories include the full range of the human travel experience, including all aspects of what traveling is all about.
From fulfilling the draw or the lure of Paris, to the French Riviera, to the French Alps, and to all sorts of interactions with the French people, and memorable adventures in all the environs of Paris, we’re examining the full breadth of incidents, whether good, wonderful, bad or horrible that happen to travelers to France. And like all places around the globe travel experiences can and do run the gamut from the positive, the beautiful, and the wonderful, to the less-so and occasionally negative experiences that can happen and are a part of travel-life.
We’re looking at what excites us about Paris to that what might make us a little less comfortable about travel in France—though the positives far outweigh any negatives in France.
Travel to France and Paris encompasses it all: from the exciting to the alluring, to the less so; from the drugs, occasional petty thievery to the sometimes craziness—Paris and France have it all.
Travel to Paris, France, and the rest of Europe is now more in the public eye than ever before. Thus, it is no wonder now, that, in so far as travel to Europe is concerned, we do now need to be a little more circumspect and attentive to our travel environment than ever before.
Whether you’ve experienced the good, bad, or the occasional ugly of travel in France, your tales are, nonetheless, memorable, and it is my personal mission that some of them are repeated here!
Introduction to Travel Tales of Paris & France!
Part 1
Travel Tales of Paris & France! is divided into two parts simply because there is so much material. Part 1 appears here in the current Travel Tales Collection issue No. 11 June 2015 and serves as a general introduction to this subject matter.
Part 2
The unabridged, expanded forthcoming ebook Travel Tales of Paris & France, part of The Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series, is a larger volume and includes both Parts 1 and 2.
The travel stories in Part 1 consist mainly of the personal France travel tales of Michael Brein (me), the author, plus those of a few other contributors. The travel stories in Part 2 are, largely, the France travel stories of world travelers and adventurers, whom I’ve encountered and interviewed all throughout my travels over the last four decades to 125 countries.
Mostly, your own Paris and France travel will typically be exciting, interesting, and without incident, but odd things can and do happen to you at almost any turn along the way in your travels, and travel in Paris, France, and Europe is certainly no exception.
I hope only peaceful and wonderful things happen to you in your France travels. I sincerely hope that any negative experiences of traveling in France do not happen to you in your own travels.
And if something unusual does happen to you in Paris and France, you deserve to also be in these pages!
