Can you visit Alsace without a car? Yes, and it is quite easy. In this guide, I explain how to use the train and the buses to see the most beautiful villages of the wine route, with the apps I used during my trip.

Savoie and Haute-Savoie are not only mountains and hiking trails. They are also cheese, and a lot of it. In this article, I share 5 traditional dishes in Savoie that you have to try. They are warm, rich and very comforting. If you love cheese, you will love them.

You buy a reblochon. You put it in the fridge. A few hours later, the whole fridge smells of cheese. The smell is quite strong. But the cheese itself is very mild. That is reblochon cheese: a soft, creamy cheese from the French Alps, made with raw whole milk.

In the Val d’Abondance, you hear the cow bells before you see the herd. Their milk makes one of the most loved cheeses of the French Alps: abondance, a raw milk cheese from Haute-Savoie, with a nutty, mild taste and an AOP label. Let’s see how it is made, how to enjoy it, and where to buy it.
