I have played hundreds of songs jamming with the friends before covid at that bench : 12:28
Good times when musicians were respected in the city
Hi Neil and Sarah. Fab to see you both on your travels again. You both look really well! Toulouse is on my list now😊.xx
❤ This is my favourite way to travel - just get lost! It's also one of my favourite videos of yours. You both seem so much more relaxed. Congrats on making the change ❤
Toulouse is in Haute Garonne department in Occitanie region, Midi Pyrénées does not exist anymore. It was reunited with Languedoc Roussillon to create Occitanie.
it's true i live there, but no one really cares, we still say midi-py here
@@dominickhadaroo4399 me too 👍
Fun video! We just spent about a month in France exploring the countryside and smaller cities- so beautiful and so much more to see! We loved the Midi Pyrenees region. Toulouse is now on our list for next time!
Great to watch you explore again! We travel 5/6 months a year as we’ve retired early too so looking forward to seeing if you’ve got some new tips next time.😊
So sad to miss the Fête de la Musique for watching TV in a hotel room... 🤔
I love your energy! ❤ You are very welcome if you ever come back to our lovely pink city! Cheers from a Toulousain! 😊
Fantastic! We loved Toulouse!!!
Loved the video, the jokes and parkour are on point!
THANK YOU, Neil & Sara. Lovely walk thru Toulouse.
To be fair this music festival originated in France decades ago, but it is now held in other countries . It coincides with the summer solstice
Hi Neil and Sarah, you’re now in my favorite country - I was in Toulouse for part of the World Cup so know the atmosphere! One of my favorite towns is Pau that is 2 hours away (2 hours from Bordeaux). It hits what I call the travelers’ sweet spot - very charming and walkable, beautiful views of the mountains, way less expensive than Toulouse, and lots of day trips from Pyrenees to San Sebastián (Bordeaux and Toulouse). Used to be a favorite of the English aristocracy over a century ago - never to hot or cold (can be a bit rainy - of course we Brits define the word “rainy” differently!). Like you guys even in Hawaii I rejoice when there is cloud cover!
Bonjour! Thank you for this fun stroll in my hometown. I now live in the Loire Valley but love returning to “the Pink City” now and then. The holes on the venerable Pont Neuf were added to help decrease the risk of damage to the structure when the mighty Garonne river floods (which it does on a regular basis.) Happy travels!
I lived in Toulouse for many happy years, lived on the first road at the Pont Neuf, built a house just to the south, two of my boys were born there, got married in the centre. In Monaco now but we go back when we can. Lovely to see you discovering it. Good luck on your travels.
J'aime bien le Parkour de Sarah.
C'est the meme chose pour moi, seulment the "paving".
Eh bien. Bon chance, en France,aux Olypics!
No campervan trip to France ? Not tempted? Nice to see you both travelling again either way.
The guy you filmed at 6:52 is the 2012 olympic champion 😂
Really? Lol! We didn't have a clue what we were looking at :-)
@@2GoRoamTravels yeah he was also a world record holder !
@@2GoRoamTravels Yep, he's Renaud Lavillenie !
I'm catching up here with you two. Loved this post and this beautiful city!
You should try Girona in Spain, just two hours car ride from Toulouse.
It is on the list! We will be there in the next year for sure.
I hope you found the beautiful cathédrale and couvent des jacobins. Beautiful brickwork.
Loved Toulouse! Spent 2 years there for hubby's work. Great place to explore! We'd pick a new place to drive to around France every other weekend and got to see so much! Enjoyed your video....brought back great memories!
Oh God, having lived in the town, I could follow your steps... Such a pity you had to endure "Lafête de la musique" though ;D Still, I did the same as you did in Barcelona, I think you missed some of the greatest spots in town. I have to admit that after +40 years around, I've grown tired of it. Traffic is horrendous and this discourages nearby people to go in the centre. Next time, try "L'Entrecote", a famous restaurant I'm sure you'll fancy unless you're vegan.
You’re in my nearest city!
Yep, really enjoyed your video.
Love seeing the city of Toulouse but I’m finding the subtitles distracting
Thanks for sharing the treemendous sights. Very pretty city.
Very nice!
Toulouse looks really great. We’ll be boating the Canal du Midi come Sept and can’t wait to see the area. This will be our longest trip to date. Almost 90 days. Looking forward to the next video about planning. Sounds helpful. Take care you two! Cheers
I love that you just go out and get lost. Sometimes it's good to have an objective, sometimes not.
This way of visiting is fun, and you are a very sympatheric couple, but it's so sad you miss everything that I could cry !!!😭😭😭😭
Toulouse has so much more to offer !
quelques fois les balades sans but, sans buts touristiques, dans un lieu inconnu , sont tellement plus "sensationnelles"....hors des sentiers battus...merveilleux...un toulousain
Toulouse....i am french from angers. I have a bad souvenir about this city....dirty...dark.
It's great to see you two back out on the streets again! 🎉❤
We had to skip Toulouse last year as we were due to stop there on the train from Bruges en-route to Italy. A landslide in the Alps put paid to ALL trains to Italy unfortunately. Last minute panic saw us try RyanAir for the first time - and we were pleasantly surprised!
There's always a whole lot of things going on at Place du Capitole. That's where all the events are that the city is involved in organising. Markets, fairs, parades, sports events etc. It's not always nice because sometimes you're facing walls of policemen or a closed metro station.
"Pont Neuf" means new bridge, because it was a new one at the time. Same in Paris.
I did looking for the metro. It's next to the station 😂
I work in the building at 8:11 😆
You chose Place Saint-Pierre for the first night which is where all the students go to have drinks, and especially after exams and on the 21st June... If you like crowds and chaos it's the best time ^^ On Place du Capitole you have great restaurants, not so much tourist traps. I personnaly like Grand Café Le Florida. And you passed Musée du Vieux Toulouse in your stroll. Greatest museum, all about the history of the city and cheap entrance. I hope you got a good impression though throughout your visit !
Nothing to lose (Sorry) but the sound!
Great video and sad about the mics on the day before...
Love the content.
Each region of France has its own assets, and you need to take the time to discover and appreciate them ;)
best Parkour video I've ever seen.
Would love to get your perspective as full-time travelers on the unrest that is going on in France. I’ll be visiting the Alsace region for a couple of days in August and want to make sure that we will be okay. I’ve been seeing some real issues with the unrest over the elections.
Treemendous!!
Where's the van?
J'aime bien le black au début de la vidéo en train de rôder autour des bagnoles et de regarder longuement les blancs qui partent...😅
The "pink city"... It's a nice town, but there isn't much to do for tourists, a WE is more than enough to see everithing interesting.
Unless you know where to go. It's always the same story. When you look for interesting places and activities, you will find out there are plenty of them...
@@issey1456 Can you list some of those places and activities? Because I live there and I still haven't found them after more than 6 years...
@@IronFreee when I was a host for out an about I took them : to the park in Jolimont for pics. Once a month you can watch the moon and stars there, from the Observatory itself. To a monthly ( and free) Clutch night in an iconic place each time. We went to the Bazacle for underwater water observation. In Spring you can watch the giant catfish . We took a trip up and down the Garonne with a taxi boat. I took them to the Buddhist monastery near Lavaur. You can go wine testing in wine festivals in Fronton or Gaillac. You can try a flight simulator in the new museum in Aeroconstellation. In early fall the Crime Litterature festival is fun, they usually organise a game. You can watch open air night projections of films in le parc Raymond VI aux Abattoirs or la Cave poesie etc. I visited old houses and old streets around rue St Rome with a Murder Game proposed via le bureau de Tourisme. I used to take my kids to the Buffalo farm in Merenville, I think they are closed now. But you have the African Safari not far. You can rollerskate through the city at night with a group that does it regularly. Try winning a bottle at the Dispensary that has Quiz Nights. ( we won) Visit museums by night or listen to concerts at candlelight. There are activities offered at Cabanis mediatheque. The City of Space. I go to events at the université, I follow the Pride March, I used to volunteer as a bilingual and get a foot in things the UEFA Euro 16 football cup ( much fun) . You can take the small steam train to go to le Tarn. Admire old vintage cars at le Grand Rond once a month. I could go on and on. I initially looked down on Toulouse when I first lived there, as I grew up in Paris. Just ask around, be pro active, you will find new things to explore . I must admit Covid was terrible in that aspect, butmany things are still on, like open air movies or free Clutch nights
@@IronFreee Buy a guide book or go and ask to the Office de Tourisme (it used to be in the tower back the Capitole) !
@@LizzieJaneBennet Don't tell me to ask to other people if you pretend to know better, just tell me where I'm wrong with concrete examples.
I know where the office du tourism is, I've been there a few times and they don't have much to offer.
You can visit the main museums in a day, without rushing and even using a bicycle to go arround (there's bicycle lanes all accross the city).
Then you can get lost arround the Capitol, eat some "tappas", a delicious "cassoulet" and some duck sausages. and have a walk on the canal du Midi.
Did I forgot something?
Why don't you use Instagram? I'm sure you'd get some traction for RUclips and if you want a quiet week you only need a quick Instagram post? This Toulouse trip could have had the hotel you used and flights etc on a quick insta post. We're full time, don't do social media and so I do understand and appreciate the effort.you put in.
