🇫🇷 South of France | Cloudy Day in Perpignan, Under the Snowy Peaks

🛏️ Late Check-Out Luxury "12 PM checkout? Bless you, France & Spain." 😴 *(Unlike some places that kick you out at 10 AM after a 4 PM check-in... rude.)* Tried (and failed) to snag Stefanie Sun concert tickets 🎫—guess I’ll just keep wandering! 🍽️ Brunch Dilemma Options: 1️⃣ Seafood market platter (risky before a 5-hour train 🚂💨) 2️⃣ CHEZ NOÏ Chinese restaurant (3rd visit—worth it!) Spicy beef with pickled peppers 🌶️🍚 = rice obliterator Dry-pot cauliflower (flawless, except the "mystery pork essence" 🐖❓) Boiled beef in chili oil = today’s MVP 🥘 🏰 14th-Century Castle Vibes €2 entry (free for students! 🎓) Highest point in Perpignan = panoramic views of Pyrenees + city skyline Today’s mood: "Gale-force winds ☁️💨 vs. sunny blue skies ☀️—pick a side, nature!" ⛪ Cathedral Pit Stop Smells like sacred incense + silence 🙏 Perfect for: Sitting, staring, and pretending to meditate (but really just resting your feet). ☕ Starbucks Betrayal "Sorry, not sorry—global Starbucks can’t compete with the Chinese menu." 🇨🇳✌️ (Friend’s wisdom: "No one coddles you abroad—grow up or go home.") 🚂 Travel Regrets? *"Could’ve done Perpignan + Collioure in 2 days... but slow solo travel = underrated bliss."* (Why rush? Staring at walls is self-care too. 😌) #WanderlustVibes #PerpignanDiaries #SoloTraveler #SouthOfFrance #TrainThoughts
