French la Vie

 

Our senses are filled full

with inspiration

creativity

 new and renewed friendships

shared meals

discovery

learning

simply by experiencing Provence through the lens of the brocante.

to travel by this means is to engage in conversation

by holding an old object in one's hands and asking 

how much?

then the story unfolds and often a connection is made.

I am so grateful that the brocante dealers I have met over the last thirty years living in France

have opened their arms, homes, studios, warehouses, and addresses

for me to share with my blog readers and those who join me on the French la Vie.

 

The French la Vie would be just another sightseeing/buying experience if it wasn't for the connections I have made at the brocante and if those wonderful friends didn't open their hearts and friendship to me to share with you.

I am grateful for the brocante journey!
