This is part one of a series where I’ll be sharing photo’s from my trip to Provence 2 years ago. I have been very inspired by all things French lately and I never fully explored the imagery and inspiration that was all around us on this trip.
I spent about 10 days in Provence with a girlfriend from college and her sister who was living there at the time. It was fantastic to have her as our guide since she was fluent in French and knew her way around. It made it so easy for us to sit back, relax and enjoy the sightseeing. Here is some of the beautiful produce at the weekly market in Orange, radishes, frisee lettuce, cheese (I love how they are wrapped!) and truffles! We were lucky enough to be there during truffle season and we enjoyed a lovely homemade meal with truffles (I’ll share more on that evening another day).
Isn’t this sign charming? It hung way above the street corner and I’m certain it attracted more than the fair share of photographers attention (both inside the shop and out). Who needs and ADT sign with this impressive steel gate announcing “Attention Au Chien”. I never saw a dog but with a sign engraved in your gate you are certain to be more safe with or without a dog!
I wanted to share a bit more with you today but it seems I have come down with some bug and am going to put myself back to bed momentarily but I wanted to kick off French February with a couple images from Orange, which was home base for us for our many day trips around Provence.

Love the ways the photos are assembled. I’m a Francophile tried and true and love Provence the most. Feel better!
