Default France- which places did you like best?

Hi there .. I spent the last two days reading like every post in this forum – it’s really inspiring plus the information is extremely helpful, so thanks a lot! :D
I will spend one month in France (Aug 21-Sep) hoping to cover Paris, Brest (visiting a friend there), Bordeaux, Marseille and Strasbourg. As for Bordeaux and Strasbourg I am not a 100% sure whether I really want to go there but Bordeaux would split up the distance Brest/Marseille nicely and Strasbourg is close to the German border so it would be the cheapest way for me to get back home. I bought an interrail ticket 4days/month so I am a bit limited. What are the cities/places in France you liked the most? And if you have ever been to one of the cities I named – what did you enjoy doing there?

My favourite places in France are probably Normandy and the Jura region on the Swiss border. I like Normandy for its history and sea food while the Jura has beautiful scenery.
