Vacation in France #2 in 10 pictures

It is almost one week I have been in South of France where I was more than then years ago. As living in Ibiza, a Mediterranean island, is behind me, many things are familiar. Like hot sun and good food. Yet, it is no island here, the mountains are far bigger and the mentality is somewhere between peasant and high-society. As I am getting used to surroundings, here are 10 pictures to give you the glimpse of where I am.

I have not yet got to the big cities, nor to the famous beaches like St. Tropez. And I will go there just because it would be strange not to. But my focus is still on writing and learning good habits that I can use when coming back to Estonia nd continueingf my work with helping people find and make visible their passion and lifestyle.

My lifestyle, is like this. 🙂

Spending time in small, middle-of-nowhere places that are rich with culture and enable to learn from the locals

Constantly grow myself, learn tricks that make my life better and in return, I can be of help to others

I shall become an olive tree. Learning new and sustainable habits.

To enjoy the riches that life and environments offer us

The small things are that make life worth living. The luxury can be in the simplest of things. If you look out for it.

Try new things

I have thought of trying these sweets for a while now as they are so popular. I bought two from a local boulangeri, pistachio and lavender. Tried lavender – not something special for me, though I understand it is difficult in technique. Not for me, I stick to croissants.

My first. Always thought what the fuss is about. Still don't understand. Sorry, not my cup of tea.

I am a solopreneur at heart, work-as-you-go

I don’t care where I am, I always want to live and work at the same time. And have a vacation in the middle of the day in Estonia. Or in Norway, or in France. That is my life. Vacation all the time. Work all the time. Although, I will be making some more rules soon.

French food. Need I say more

This is not very good picture nor selection of “French food”, but you get the idea. It is no point of being in a Mediterranean country and eat McDonalds or your own home-food. Try the local cuisin and delights!

Aaahh... the food. It is no life in France without the local food.

Mountains

For me, this needs no further description. It is what I breathe.

Water

The first days I was like, heck no, I need no water, I am good.

Tourist! 🙂
Now I value every drop of water and happily put on 50+ sunscreen as it is toooo hot and sun is scorching. Need to take care of yourself.

Do not do any physically demanding exercises. Save water. No joke.

Well, we both learn to get accustomed to heat, new experiences and new people. Neighbouring cats are already visiting us.
