  • Hello friends! How are you? So many new subscribers. wow, wonderful!!! Thank you so much for sharing an interest in our little part of this world. Where are you from? Please comment, let us know.
    We wanted to share some clips from a couple of our recent hikes in the mountains. Slowly becoming a fav passion of ours. We bought ourselves hiking boots, appropriate footwear (finally) so we can venture into the many, many, many wonderful natural parks and forest that this region has to offer. Once a week is our goal. I also bought a pair of walking sticks and I'm not embarrassed to use them, they are extremely helpful for those uphill climbs.
    Also in today's video we venture out on a Saturday to an outdoor brocante fair in Trie-sur-Baise. Our, we've taken you along before but their last brocante fair was a melange of both professional et mid range sellers and was held under the Les Halles. A covered area primarily used for market days. This brocante fair offered a wider range of antiques, particularly
    larger hard to find items. We were all blessed with bright warm weather that day because for days following it was miserable again. I'm so glad that we went on their first day.

      Thank you for watching! Do you have a specific item or era you tend to gravitate towards when buying vintage/antiques?

    The green of your area is amazing even in August. In Oregon, the state of rain, we still began to look a little brown. Just love following along

    What is the name of the Town/Brocante that you found you Garden Lions? I saw some other interesting items in the vlog and would like to go to that village when we visit from Calif this summer.
    Please advise. My wife and I enjoy your trips.
    Thanks

    When you're shopping at the brocante, I wish you would say the price out loud when you're looking at the price tag. Also if you had bought that picnic basket with the wine bottle basket attached, I definitely would have bought it,what is the name of your Etsy shop please. Please name your Etsy shop name on one of your videos as I am following you and would love to shop on it. Thank you

      @Frenchcountryfriends  Před 11 měsíci +1

      We appreciate that! We negotiated around 2 euros. 🫶 What do you think? Fair price?

    @StephanieHughesDesign Před 8 měsíci

    Belle. Qu'est-ce que le prix de petite ferme maison en le Pyrenee's ? Peut-être proximité de Ville de Pau ou Pays de Basque ?

      Je pense que tout est déterminé par la taille, la superficie en pieds carrés/hectares mais moins que le Nord ou la Côte d'Azur bien sûr!
