Welcome to my crazy life in the south of France. I love to write and photograph the day to day experiences that I encounter here in Provence. I hope this blog will give readers an inside look at some of the insane, funny, and beautiful experiences that I have had along the way in making a life for myself in France.

Never a bad day since the roof was fixed, huh? Love the beautiful architecture.
Actually, we’ve had some bad days since then, but I keep telling myself I live here and it’s all worth it 🙂 Dude on the other hand is getting annoyed and has a hard time seeing the forest through the trees!
Just took my son to the zoo a week ago, that view so familiar from the rhino enclosure 🙂 His first stop off because the wilderbeasts are his second favourite animal after the giraffe. Bliss.
I love that zoo, Claire. It’s really nice. We took our daughter there a year ago for her birthday. I love the meerkats and the giraffes 🙂 The views of the castle are wonderful. I took a tour of it years ago and have promised myself to return. I need to get on that!
Great photos Ashley. There is so much of Provence that I have yet to visit.
I feel the same way, Michel. Even though I’ve been lucky enough to visit a lot of places here, there is always so much more waiting to be discovered!
I need to get down to Bandol and stock up on the Rosé 🙂
I hear the wine in Bandol is excellent, Sara. It is rather odd that I live here and don’t really drink wine, I do know that I am missing out! It’s also evident in the crazy looks I get from people when I tell them that 🙂
