Hi, we’re Julie and Andy & 35 years ago, we fell in love with the Luberon and Provence, after stumbling across it while ambling around France in a borrowed caravan. Expecting to stay for a couple of days, we found ourselves leaving with just enough time to get back to the Ferry. We were hooked.
A few years ago, we finally achieved our dream of making it our permanent home, renovating our house, and getting further under the skin of the area that we love.

We hope you enjoy the regular postcards from our life, and slow travel adventures.

This year, January seems to have lasted for a least 6 months, if not slightly longer. The days seem to have flown by, yet at the same time, it feels as if the month has passed at a snail’s pace. It’s really very bizarre. But, the weeks have been filled with the basics of life, … More January trip to the Cote d’Azur
