Having been to France a couple of times, I’ve found areas I really enjoy. As I’ve traveled to the Southern portion of the country, I’ve been able to indulge in a favorite pastime, learning history.
There is so much of the medieval past in the small villages and towns to explore. Plus, the people are so easy going, family orientated and still believe in being respectful to their fellow humans.
