So you've seen it in every magazine and rap video in the 90s or maybe you've heard from a friend who has been there, but now you wonder..."Is it really as glam as everyone is making it out to be"? The answer is 100% yes. Monte-Carlo (Monaco to be exact) is one of many playgrounds in the South of France where the elite come to show you why they are the envy of every economic class in the world. Home of the Grand Prix and Princess Grace (Philly in the house!) Monaco is a world of structural beauty, shopping bliss and dessert heaven. Not only are the people good to look at, but so are the views (as seen below) of the gorgeous Mediterranean Sea. If your a James Bond Fan (like myself) you will adore it's world famous casino but make sure you dress the part. This is one of the very few places in the world where you will be turned away from a casino if you wander in with flip-fops from the beach or a day party. Speaking of day parties... Monte Carlo has one of my favorite chains Nikki Beach at the famous Fairmount Hotel. Keep in mind, everything you do in this Oasis is going to take serious Euro (a cheeseburger can run you 20 euro alone, don't do the conversion to the dollar it will make you sick).
General Consensus: If you got that big bonus this year or your sugar mamma/daddy is ready and willing to spend ignore that last statement. If you are a regular working class gal like myself and want to adventure to this paradise like me and my friend did, it is worth it. If you're looking for a relaxing weekend with great views and want to nab that designer purse (Chanel was among my favorites here) for a much cheaper price head to Monte-Carlo!
