Lovely market with lots of different things. The type of place you see things that you didn't know you needed, or wanted😂 What an incredible campsite that is. I've been thinking, I don't drive so, I could buy a kind of trailer/camper van & hook it onto the back of Gladys & come along with you to all these wonderful places you find😀😂😂
Each time I say "oh, I could definitely live there!" Either, I'd end up travelling around to live in them all, or there'd have to be multiples of me, to live in them all & trust me, you don't want multiples of me😂😂
Is Sammy not well as she turned down and ice-cream.
Such stunning scenery..next level that…all those miles of trees..and that valley..ta for showing us 😊

Hello ! I'm from Nice and if you ever wanna visit the region, you'll love the southern Alps ! The coast is beautiful with the mountains jumping into the sea. For this, Villefranche-sur-mer and Eze village are the best spots outside the big city.
Also, I grew up in the mountains north of Nice, and there are a lot of great spots without too many tourists, especially if you arrive before June. The walled city of Entrevaux is magnificent and definitely something you'd love. Going west, you'll find Moustiers-Sainte-Marie and the Verdon gorges, it's one of the best gorges and water in the world, so it gets touristy during the summer, but is definitely worth the visit during May. Then driving south, you will find the Var departement with vineyards and beautiful scenery.
You can then go east, driving along the coastline, through the Esterel Massif, with big red rocks diving into the blue water.
Anyway, hope you can visit my region, despite being well known, there are lots of hidden gems ! And if you have any question about it, i'd be happy to answer !
Anyway, keep up the good work of showing our country and the beautiful places in it, your videos are lovely !
Brilliant video jp love that amazing scenery
