I recently went to Europe to spend the Holidays with my siblings. We visited France, Austria, Czech, Slovakia, and Istanbul (I shared a few interesting things about Istanbul in this article).

While traveling solo in Paris, I wanted to connect with other people, explore the city more authentically, and take my time to do activities I enjoy.

Cooking is not necessarily my favorite thing to do. But I do love baking and cooking desserts.

So, I thought, "why not try one of the most traditional desserts from France? Macarons!”.

I booked the class in the Airbnb Experience portal.

Here, are the reasons you should consider taking a macaron class while visiting Paris.

1. Immerse in an authentic tradition

Cooking classes with locals are a great way to learn about a new culture and the local cuisine. Not only will you learn the basics of local cooking, but you’ll also get to interact with the locals and get a better understanding of their culture and lifestyle.
