With apologies to Simon & Garfunkel but Pour Emily, whenever Megève find her is our franglais take… on everyone’s favourite Américaine lost in France.
This being winter or l’hiver Emily is decamping to the Alps.
And being the chic chick that she is that means Megève.
And since we have amis in high altitude places we have the skinny from the Emily in Paris ski set.
L’Art de Vivre
The much-anticipated final season dropped on Netflix yesterday.
And it sees Emily embracing L’Art de Vivre, or French living.
Around Megève village square and the Mont d’Arbois ski area.
Et the Idéal 1850 restaurant (Edmond de Rothschild Heritage/Four Seasons Megève Collection).
Et the Chalet des Fermes de Marie (.Maisons & Hôtels Sibuet).
Lily in the pink
And when we say Emily we really mean her doubles.
Because they did all the pipes and slaloms while Lily Collins did all the pre and apres-ski.
But, hey, we all have our crosses to bear.
And there are plenty of them here in this Medieval village with a deeply Catholic heritage.
With its six chapels, around sixty oratories and around twenty crosses.
Megève enjoys God-given beauty, and we’re still talking about Emily here and her beaus.
And it boasts stunning vistas, valleys and vin.
A Massif hit
Sat at the foot of the Mont-Blanc massif, it is only one hour from Geneva Airport.
And it is served from everywhere in Britain and Ireland.
Return flights from London Gatwick to Geneva with easyJet are priced from £49pp during the 2024/25 winter season.
And that’s for me. Pour Emily, whenever Megève find her it will always be in among the high-fliers.
