DRIVING THROUGH THE BEAUTIFUL PROVENCE TO MARSEILLE!!


Wow thank god I passed my driving test a few months ago, I would have really missed out on the amazing drive through the Provence to the Cote d’Azur, arriving into Marseille, this area of France really does live up to its name! Once you’ve passed Lyon you can actually feel the air is different, without sounding over dramatic it’s true! The vegetation becomes really lush, olive groves and vineyards start appearing and rough stony villages dotted around everything, and my personal favourite, the tip point tree (I don't know it's real name!) which



I think is the emblem tree of the provence that you can recognize in Van Gogh’s paintings, I love just watching the tip sway gently from side to side in the wind, I spotted this tree and I knew I was in the famous beautiful Provence!
