Enjoy the nice weather these days in Paris, Hugh!
I usually buy the cheap wines from the supermarch

Where is the Stormhoek blogger freebie for South Africans?

Lovely, they’ve had a Stormhoek bloggers wine freebie in the UK, Ireland, and now France, so where’s the freebie for South African bloggers.
While we may not be the target market, or the largest market, we are a market, and we’re the home market.

Lovely, so we have a South African Stormhoek Blogger’s wine freebie in the UK, in Ireland, but not in South Africa?
What about the South African bloggers? We’re probably not the target market, nor the biggest consumers, but we should count for something.
I want free shit.

Loving, loving, loving Paris. I was lucky enough to get a 6-month scholarship at Sorbonne IV (whatever the difference to “Sorbonne” is…) for the summer 2006. Man, do I look forward to the that!
That’s one of the best things about living in Europe: You can buy a flight to Paris for as little as 25$. A night in a hotel starts from about 50$. Which means: You can have a weekend trip to the city of cities for something above 100$.
The cost-factor you have to add is: Food.
Which brings me to the point where I humbly believe you’ll be up for rough waters.
One of the most incredible things about Paris is: In every supermarket you can get surprisingly good french wine starting from 4$, the like of which would coust you >10$ in any other country. (And some pretty good cheese, too, which together make for incredible evenings at the Seine, in the Jardin Luxembourg (take glasses for the wine, or be very kind to a waiter, that makes it more classy!) or on the Isle de Paris)
So hopefully you/Stormhoeck will have bonus as being “exotic” or “special” or “cool”!
I wish all the best!
P.S.: The ticket from the carnet makes me want to pack and leave for Paris right away.
