In the Footsteps of Balzac

In the Footsteps of Balzac - For today's vlog Exploring France with Landscape Photography we take a journey along a trail dedicated to the famous French writer Honoré de Balzac.

Born in 1799 in Tours he lived in Paris but would come back around here to write. The area providing inspiration for the novel Lys dans la Vallée or Lilly in the Valley.

The trail that I came across pointed out a number of places such as towns; castles and old mills. So I thought let's take a journey along some of these highlights and give you more of an idea of what's here in central France.

My channel is dedicated to all things landscape and travel photography so if that’s your thing then I’d love to have you come along for the ride.
