Montpellier, France

ninamccollumIf you're looking to go somewhere non-touristy, spend your days lounging around cafes, people watching, and meeting locals, then consider going to the south of France. Stay at the quaint Hotel du Palais in the city center, near lots of dining and attractions. This is a town where everything is slowed down - coming from NY or any other American city must make Montpellier feel like taking a Xanax. [Photo via]
