Michelle Langstone, tips for group travel, and do you need to be rich to visit Paris?

Each fortnight, Trip Notes hosts Stephanie Holmes and Tim Roxborogh are joined by a special guest to talk all about travel. On this episode, brought to you by Intrepid Travel, we chat to Kiwi actor Michelle Langstone, star of Westside, 800 Words, McLeod's Daughters, The Bad Seed, Go Girls, The Almighty Johnsons and many more.

When we invited Michelle into the studio to talk about the joys of group travel, we weren’t exactly prepared for her response. “I have never, ever, ever done a group trip, and I never, ever will,” she said, vehemently. Listen to find out if we manage to convince her to change her mind.

Michelle also reveals the power of a foreign destination to help heal a broken heart, and admits her first holiday as an adult was a little bit reckless, skipping drama school to go on a tropical holiday with a friend.

And, we pick Paris as our Destination of the Week. What are the best things to see and do there? Why do so many people love it? And do you need to have a lot of money to really enjoy the best of it?

Leave us a review and tell us some of your favourite destinations - we'd love to know where you're travelling, and where you're dreaming of.
