A few words about us and how our travel blog came to life!
Julie & Paul-Louis, passionate about travel (and a few other things!)
Together for a few years now, we have both always been passionate about travel, nature, discovery and culture. And yet our day jobs couldn’t be further from these passions: Julie is a corporate lawyer and Paul-Louis works in digital marketing.
On a more personal note, Julie is also passionate about film photography. We share some of her shots in our articles, and you’ll easily spot them thanks to their unmistakable vintage look. Paul-Louis, for his part, loves music and making music.
But today, we share a new passion: writing our blog articles, which we’ve been doing since 2022!
Julie
Co-founder
A lawyer by trade, Julie is passionate about both digital and film photography. As well as writing some of the articles, she brings all the visual flair to Prochain Arrêt, both on the blog and on our Instagram page (and on far too many hard drives filled with photos of streets and dogs). Her favorite destinations: Sri Lanka, Italy, New York and Belgium!
Paul-Louis
Co-founder
A marketing manager in Paris since 2016, Paul-Louis loves writing, which comes in handy when you run a travel blog. Also in charge of everything technical on the website, his true passion lies in Excel files: whether it's tracking the blog's stats or planning the next road trip, everything goes through a spreadsheet. His favorite destinations: Cambodia, Lisbon, Copenhagen and Montenegro!
Why we started this travel blog
We decided to start this travel blog because it felt like the best format for sharing our many tips and itineraries. We love going into detail, suggesting ideas to get off the beaten track and sharing our favorite places, so writing articles felt like the natural choice.
We also created an Instagram page for Prochain Arrêt, where we share our trips in photos and videos as we go! It’s a way for us to tell you slightly different stories and to show our faces a bit more often 👀
Feel free to follow us, it would make us really happy!
What to expect on Prochain Arrêt
On our blog, you’ll find in-depth articles that answer all the questions you might have before visiting a city or a country. We like to write our articles as itineraries, even for city guides, because we find it the most practical way to plan your days. Beyond that, what matters most to us is being honest about our experiences: when we love something, we say so, and when we’re less convinced, we say that too.
Today, Prochain Arrêt has more than 30,000 readers a month and ranks among the most-visited French-language travel blogs! We’re incredibly grateful and proud of how far we’ve come, and we can’t wait to keep sharing our content with you, now in English too 🤩
