5 Ingenious Ways to Avoid Paying For Toilet Trips in Europe

I never thought I'd meet anyone who doesn't know the meaning of WC until I traveled to Europe with an American. So for those who don't know this either, never ask where is the "restroom" or "bathroom" when you are in Europe. You'll either get a blank stare or a weird look. In Europe, the correct word for restroom is “WC”, an abbreviation for Water Closet. You'd have to pay 20 cent- 2 Euros to use a WC almost everywhere in Europe. Phew… Never had I spent so much on toilet trips.

The Best of Luberon In A Day

If you’ve read “The Lavender Keeper” by Fiona McIntosh about the French Resistance, then you’ll be excited to set foot in (some say, and I agree) the most beautiful region in France—Provence! I couldn’t believe I was in Provence already, one of my dream destinations. A visit to the picturesque Luberon region was mandatory, I’ve heard great things about it. Provence Reservation seemed like a good travel agent to book a “Pure Luberon Experience” tour with, so I happily went with the plan proposed by the tourism board of Vaucluse.
