Let’s keep this our little secret! June is a magical time to visit, when Provence feels like your own private retreat. The days stretch long and warm, yet the heat remains gentle. Poppies have faded to a soft blush, while lavender and sunflowers quietly prepare for their spectacular show.
Shifting from landscapes to tastes, market stalls brim with the first apricots, cherries, and melons of the season, nestled beside artichokes and crisp green beans. Savour the moment with Ashley Tinker’s vibrant menu before these flavours fade. For more inspiration, explore our Spring recipe collection.
Continuing the culinary theme, be sure to read Déborah Pham van Xua’s article on practicing your French at le marché in Aix-en-Provence. Click here to read the article. The market can feel intimidating at first. Prices are spoken quickly, people wait their turn, and interactions are brief. Yet this is exactly what makes le marché such a forgiving place to practice French.
Formula 1 fans, the thrill is building in Monte Carlo! The 83rd Monaco Grand Prix roars to life this weekend, with qualifying on June 5, practice on Saturday, and 78 electrifying laps on Sunday at 15:00. Prepare for heart-pounding excitement!
Craving calm after the adrenaline? Embrace tranquillity with Kathryn MacDonell’s recommendation: stroll Nietzsche’s Footpath from Èze to Èze-Sur-Mer. Walk in the philosopher’s footsteps along the Riviera and let the same views inspire your own reflections.
