Holidays... Fun
At last, after a long waiting period, the sun is here playing hide-and-seek with the clouds. Rare during the first days of spring, it has decided to timidly brighten the skies of France.
So let usour edition under the expected heat of its rays.
...and games!

The Terroirs-of-France webzine will cover over the next few months, 9 territories in 2 regions.

For our accommodation column, we remain in the North, but travel from the beaches of Côte d'Opale to the land of the giants and the windmills in the Cœur de Flandre.
Plaines, hills, windmills are part of the landscape here, but games, estaminets and brasseries are part of the life of the fun-loving people of the region.
There are so many activities to do in the heart of Flanders that we dedicated our leisure column to this region as well.
|
Active or relax, the choice is for the visitor as one can either participate or just watch.
Four colours of nature represent the Périgord in the southwest.
|
After last month's article on the Périgord Noir, this month we tackle the green side of the Périgord in our discovery column.
This region rich with rivers and vegetation, is ideal for nature lovers but also for the seekers of culture and heritage. |
|
Wine is not the only drink produced in France. The apéritifs and the digestifs are as much appreciated to complete a good meal.
This month we introduce 2 different types of apéritifs:
An original type of a pastis, which is usually an anise based drink typical of the Marseilles region,
and an assortment of fruits and flowers based spirits.

Le long du coteau courbe et des nobles vallées
Les châteaux sont semés comme des reposoirs,
Et, dans la majesté des matins et des soirs
La Loire et ses vassaux s'en vont par ses allées.

Here the sky is more blue than anywhere else and
it lovingly blends with the sea. Its earth is stony ; its maquis verdant.
Blue, ocre and green are its colors. Its men are like it, solid as the rock, free like the
sea and rich of cultures. |

Un arbuste et l'air pur font une source vive
Qui suspendue au jour, délicieuse arrose
De ses pertes de fleurs le jardin de l'oisive.
