What I Like About France

What I Like About France

(random)

 

The appeal of elegance and refinement with a fearless open-heartedness combined with an earthy sensibility

 

The ever-present cheery greetings, Bonjour Madame, Bon Soiree, Bon Soir, Bon Nuit

 

Florals for days especially the roses on wallpapers, fabrics, prints, men’s shirts . . . . .

 

Topless sunbathing sur la plage   Amen!

 

Park wherever

 

Sexuality & sensuality embraced

 

Endless steams of reverence for the arts, each and every one of them

 

Where the is a view there is a bench

 

The Trees

The trees of the Tulieres

The pride taken in caring for trees, shaping them, and how they are used and appreciated for shade

 

The colors of the Rhone

The blues of Provence

The blues of Cote d’Azurs & le sud de France

 

How older women dress

 

Another day another castle – the ancient ruins that dot the countryside

 

The Calanques

 

Bises & PDA’s partout!

 

Cote Roti / Saint Joseph/ Grenache/ Chateau Neuf & pink wine, dans l’ après midi

 

Cassis is an anti-inflammatory Amen (encore)

 

The pristine air in Nyons

 

How men shameless flirt and look you in the eyes

 

Respectful waiting. Life happens for the most part we are not in a hurry. What is this rushing for anyway?

 

Un petit cadeau

 

Moutarde a la Truffle – seriously

 

The pride in fruit conserves

 

Laduree chocolate pralines

 

Castel patisserie

Scarfs

 

Feeling at home wearing hats

 

Goat cheese – why is there always room for cheese?

 

French Lingerie – they make your boobs look juste parfait

 

Lunch – Wine – Nap

 

Asking for l’addition. No pressure we are French and we take sitting down to eat seriously. We give our attention to our food, appreciating a meal takes time, relax, enjoy, and when you are ready please ask us for the check.

 

Alors . . . . . un moment partager.
