Provence is a region in Southern France that subtly draws
you in. The region is perhaps best know
for its hilltop villages, lavender and Sunflower fields, clear blue skies, and
constantly changing exuberant light. It
has a varied landscape that is at the same time – simple and
multi-faceted. Against this vivid
backdrop, the people who call Provence home form a rich cultural tapestry that
never ceases to amaze, inspire and delight.
Drawing on this inspiration, fellow Expat Ken Wallace and I
have embarked on a new video series project called “Lost in Provence.” We like
to grab a camera, turn off the GPS, and wander down the back roads of this
wonderful place we now call home. We call it getting “lost”, but it is actually
the first step in discovery. It is a
project of telling stories – stories of the most interesting people and places
you have probably never heard of.

If you have a little time, pull up a chair and check out the
site. It’s our answer to a fast paced
chaotic world. Slow down, unplug, and don’t be afraid to turn down a side
street every once in awhile. You never
know what amazing people and places you’ll find just around the corner!
