Description
Starting the day with the colours and scents of products of the Provençal market of Antibes along the coast is one of my favourite pleasures. Walking along the ramparts will bring us from the Greeks to Picasso and, today, Mega yachts. Then time for the country side, I love driving those peaceful roads through the mountains overlooking the sea. Grasse will share its liquid perfume birth with us before we move forward to the very top of the mountain just before the Alps to reach Gourdon, one of the villages I love to visit the most because it is still very authentic, always active and full of craftsmen, either in food or arts. The drive down from Gourdon going through the Loup River canyon is outstanding and will lead us to Tourrettes sur Loup, a beaten track village that I would like to show you because it is still organized as the Medieval times. St Paul de Vence is no longer to present as one of the most visited villages in France, uniquely mixing Provençal village life style, modern art and local traditions.
