Have a literary cup of coffee in Paris

Travelbite website has recommended two Paris coffee houses that you can visit if you want to follow in the footsteps of some of the world's finest writers and artists.

La Coupole is one such place, where you can raise a mug or a cup in memory of former regulars such as Louis Armstrong, Picasso and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Henry Miller, writer of famous 20th century novel Tropic of Cancer, refused to go anywhere else for his morning bowl of porridge.

Today the cafe provides "the best viewing platform of Montparnasse life of any restaurant elsewhere in the region".

Close by, in Montmartre, you can find the Closerie de Lilas. The waft of coffee from this cafe has had an irresistible pull for poets and symbolists through the centuries.

It was here that a grouchy writer by the name of Ernest Hemingway, who was once involved in two plane crashes on the same day in Uganda, wrote much of The Sun Also Rises, a novel chronicling the lives of American expatriates in the 1920s.

Get some cheap travel insurance and you could find yourself writing a postcard in one of these historic establishments.
