It suddenly became extremely hot, and it's already September. everyone in the world
You must be feeling a sense of incongruity and confusion. Speaking of summer Paris, French people, it is vacation. From March to May this year,
French citizens who have experienced restrictions on going out for about two months, I thoroughly enjoyed my vacation. Despite all the economic crisis, declining income, and anxiety about the future, I'm going to take a proper rest in July.
This kind of thought process or action pattern It may be difficult for people in countries without a vacation culture to understand. In France, it is recognized as a natural human right, Common sense has taken hold that vacations are definitely something you should take. That said, very little
There are also French people who have decided to work this summer. The same is true for self-employed restaurant owners. For me, as a freelancer, vacations are a real luxury. Because unlike working people, there is no paid vacation. Resting equals income pressure, so I haven't enjoyed a vacation like a vacation in the last few years. However, this year, I will follow the example of the French people and set off on my journey! It's only 3 nights and 4 days, but to the south of France, the Cote d'Azur.

When I consulted with an acquaintance in the Cote d'Azur, I was recommended Le Mas Candille by Mougins. Avoid coastal areas like Cannes and Nice, where vacationers are concentrated, Stay in the quiet Mougins village. Not bad. * View of Mougins Village from the grounds of Le Mas Candille Do you know Mougins Village? common in southern France,

Thin linen with embroidery. Thick curtains are perfect for shading and heat insulation, The hemp one was more convenient for protecting privacy. Before you know it, it's already 6pm. I hurried to the pool because I wanted to swim a little before the dinner I reserved at 7:30. Even at 6:30 pm, it was this brightness.

Bonjour in Mougins village while looking at Grasse village! Hotel breakfast is nice. On the morning of the first night, I simply ordered a fried egg, I ordered ouf a la coq on the second night. Place a soft-boiled egg on an egg stand, Eat baton-shaped toast dipped in soft-boiled yolk Uhu a la coq
I love all French children. I used to make it often on weekends at my house, I broke all my egg stands a few years ago... Buy a cute egg stand,
I want to make Uhu a la coq again. Plenty of honey on pancakes. Freshly squeezed orange juice and I ate plenty of fruits and other items from the buffet. An elegant breakfast that is not pressed for time,
Nothing can please a woman! just to eat this breakfast
I want to stay at the hotel. Well, I'm going to go to the trouble of staying at a five-star hotel, so The hotel itself must be fully enjoyed.
As I walked through the grounds,
There was a charming petanque court. A silver ball is also prepared properly. Petanque is a sport (game?) in the south of France,
In recent years, it has become popular among young people in Paris. The cypresses and hemp trees typical of southern France are beautiful,

There are elements of the house that you want to imitate here and there. The color scheme of the shutters, the combination of the potted plants placed outside,
A bench at the entrance... A terrace made to enter the house,
I thought it would be comfortable. Like the outside but not outside, like the inside but not inside. I find this ambiguity playful. And I think it's a luxury. One thing that surprised me was
A huge Picasso head that appeared in the square of Mougins village. Hmmm, how about this... In this short trip of 4 days and 3 nights,
Stay two nights at Le Mas Candille and visit Cannes and Antibes, We stayed in Nice for the 3rd night and flew back to Paris. It was a short but fulfilling solo trip. The new school year begins in September in France. Will we be able to start as usual in the office and at school? And it's a hot topic in the media every day. The coronavirus has not lost its power at all, Developing a vaccine will take time, as expected. When will we be able to move and travel like before? 2020 is more than half over and I still have no idea. Possibly, it may be longer than expected.
