The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path National Trail is an
easy-to-follow 130-mile trail that combines the best of inland and
coastal walking in Norfolk, and one that, being well waymarked,
largely flat and within easy reach of public transport for most of
its length, is ideal for people new to long-distance walks.
Described in 11 stages, the route can be walked in just over a week
but also easily split into day walks or over a series of weekends,
with full information about access to start and finish points for
each stage by public transport. This handy guidebook is illustrated
throughout with extracts of OS 1:50K mapping and stunning
photographs depicting the Trail in all seasons and describes points
of interest along the way, including the Norfolk Songlines
sculptures, and also facilities available in the towns and
villages. The trail is a walk of two halves. The Peddars Way begins
at Knettishall Heath in Suffolk and follows the route of an old
Roman road for over 40 miles to Holme-next-the-Sea, where it meets
the Norfolk Coast Path (which begins nearby, at Hunstanton). This
then follows the spectacular Norfolk coast to the seaside town of
Hopton-on-Sea.
The walks in this illustrated Reardon guide are collected from the
Lifestyle supplement of the Gloucestershire Echo. These family
walks are from three to five miles long, cover some of the most
attractive hidden byways of the Cotswolds and include places of
refreshment along the way.
Don't just see the sights-get to know the people. The French are
"different." You'll often hear this in conversations among the
"Anglo-Saxons," as the French like to call English-speakers.
"Different" means charming, challenging, questioning, stylish, and
doing things in their own way and to their own advantage. By
looking at the attitudes and values of the French, and explaining
how French life and business works, Culture Smart! France shows you
how to fit in as a foreigner. It gives practical advice on how to
avoid faux pas and how to behave in different contexts. It takes
you through French history, festivals, and traditions, and
describes the French at home and at work. Above all, it shows you
how the French communicate, and how to get the best out of this
idiosyncratic and brilliant people. Have a more meaningful and
successful time abroad through a better understanding of the local
culture. Chapters on values, attitudes, customs, and daily life
will help you make the most of your visit, while tips on etiquette
and communication will help you navigate unfamiliar situations and
avoid faux pas.
