Living Large in France

Southern France is so beautiful in spring time! This is where generations of families continue to live in elegant chateaus, grow world-class grapes for harvesting and polish off a 3-hour lunch with goat cheese and ripe olives. Yes - the living is large this week in the beautiful, mediterranean climate of Beziers and Montpellier. The first night was spent inside a midieval castle owned by 2 surprisingly down-to-earth parisian artists by the name of Christine and John. Since the late 1970s they have restored and refurbished their Victorian splendor into a funky, colorful, hip space for themselves and guests to enjoy. I stayed in a room with a fireplace and furniture from antiquity clashing creatively with pop art and Johns nude, double eyed mermaids. As soon as I bunk in a hotel with wifi I will upload the photos as well as figure out how to use a parenthesis in my writing. Damn, these foreign keyboards!
