- Bonjour!
I went on a road trip to the south west of France last week and my first stop is with a dear friend in the Aveyron. Her house is hidden in a valley and it's a little piece of paradise!
It was so good to spend some time together, chill and enjoy the sound of the river.
Let me know what you think!

Stunning! There are many reasons why France is the most visited country in the world.
What an idilic place your friend has, it looks so tranquil & a wonderful spot to relax & unwind ☺️ I can’t wait to see more of your road trip Marloes 🥰
Thank you!
Cilla has the most amazing place. Surrounded in nature, it’s breathtaking! Thank you for sharing it with us. 😊👍🏻
The timber you selected for your kitchen ceiling is going to look beautiful! It has almost a silver birch sheen to it.
What a beautiful relaxing place your friend has 💚
Your friends home and property is so beautiful; it's like a wonderful surprise hidden from most people's view.
Oh my gosh what an amazing episode !! Your friends home is a trip back in time ! I have a cat just like the fluffer that met you on the way in and he is equally as much a “mojito cat = hi !, come on in and have a mojito !”
Maybe it is the depressed side of me … but every time I travel to or see parts of France I envision the German occupation and how horrible it must of been to have those dark forces invade their beautiful home . Maybe I watched too many movies . But it breaks my heart.
Stunning landscape and beautiful country. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. 🌞👌❤
What a magical, serene place. To sleep there and listen to the stream must have been heavenly x
Oh my goodness, what a magical property. What a joy it must’ve been to just sit there in silence and be surrounded by the beautiful nature. Looking forward to the next two vlogs😍
It is a magical place
What a beautiful place, so tranquil you seem to find kindred spirits wherever you go ❤
I'm delighted that you still were able to get the table you wanted. How lovely of the lady to keep it for you. Your road trip looks and sounds just perfect. A great time with a friend, and several places for the soul. The problems with your van have now faded into the past.
Thank you for taking our viewers on the trips you make...I love it. I am from South Africa and love pictures about France...and all the stories. Can't wait for the next video! Take care!
Thanks for being here
Just beautiful 🤩 France - heaven on earth ❤ loved the drive 😊 merci Marloes 😊 and I’m already looking forward the next video!

What a special treat! To live in such serene surroundings seems almost non-existence. Nature grows wild, untouched and makes one dream of such a place in the Aveyron hidden valley.
It’s a magical place!
I love your travels around France Marloes...Just divine ..the beauty,history..Silles property is a slice of heaven..A peaceful retreat....
Another lovely, peaceful, beautiful video. Thank you so much for taking us on your wonderful adventure. The two swinging hammocks, the stream and the wheelbarrow luggage carrier. So restful. The wood for your ceiling is stunning, the washed grey patina it’s perfect. So glad you were able to get the table. How kind of her to hold it for you.
Thank you
Oh my, the remote area is most enchanting and the stream…what a dream to play and hear the water so close! Thank you for this sharing this journey. I could sense the tranquility of this space. Will need to also explore the region.
BTW- great looking wood! ❤
Thanks! I loved falling asleep to the sounds of the stream… magical

What a quaint little cottage! J'adore!
The sound of the water at your friends' home would totally relax me!
It did!

Well I have my paradise in the west of Ireland. A land full of soft rolling hills and valleys.☘️
What a beautiful place! I would prefer more urban home, but this setting is amazing.
I enjoyed every minute of this! Beautiful....sometimes some of the land reminds me of where I live in Colorado. Not the homes tho! Thanks for sharing. Rocky Mountain girl.
Thank you for being here!
I like your rental accommodations much better.
Beautiful countryside with such peacefulness. Think your lovely friend could use a golf cart with a trunk extension? Beats a wheelbarrow. That wood grain is gorgeous...just seal? Have a nice trip....from Wisconsin 😊
Not even necessary to seal it with this type of wood! (Poplar)
Ha, ha! I’m taking my wheelbarrow and I’m going home!
💕💕💕
Wat woont jouw vriendin op een paradijselijke plek, Marloes! Echt een plek om even bij te tanken. Goeie teaser, nu ben ik nieuwsgierig naar je volgende vlogs. Ik bedoel, nieuwsgieriger dan doorgaans ;-)
Ja het is echt een magisch mooie plek!
Yes, i know what’s coming next time, because I am also watching them and I saw you😂😂😂😂
🤫
Lovely countryside video although truth be told I am not fond of the music dropping in and out ! Cherryl from Canada
👍🌼❤
❤🎉🙏
Lovely. May I know if your video was taken by phone/iphone? or camera? And which video editor did you use? Thank you.
I use an iPhone 12 Pro and I edit in iMovie!
@@FrenchCountryLife Thank you very much. :)
The French countryside is so pretty in the summer. Us Kiwi's (New Zealand people) call the fruit, Kiwi fruit....not just Kiwis 😃 because thats us the people.
Thanks! Oh sorry for making that mistake! But I guess there must be Kiwis in that area too 🙃
@@FrenchCountryLife yes Kiwi people and Kiwi fruit is grown in NZ.
C’est le bout du monde.😅
Tout à fait!
Очень интересно! Но разве трудно вытереть стекло?😢
It is as I didn’t pass any gas stations where I could clean it. Not worth crying over I would say… life is too short to worry about those things
Auvergne?
?
les paradis cachés ...plein la FRANCE et nous pourrions y vivre en paix et en harmonie sans tous ces "gâcheurs " de plaisir ..votre amie habite ou 'le petit jésus a perdu ses souliers ' lol...mais tellement rafraichissant avec ce petit cours d'eau ...pour le bois , tous les bricoleurs ont le même problème , il n'y a plus de vraies planches dans les supermarchés du bricolage dur dur !!! bonne continuation, faite nous rêver en parcourant notre pays ( et le votre )
Merci
I'm glad you enjoy the accent of the Midi--a reminder of France's former linguistic diversity. The regional accents and regional languages seem to be disappearing. One finds a surprising contempt among some people for these regional accents. The politician Jean-Luc Mélanchon was filmed demeaning a reporter with un accent méridional and telling him he would only answer a question if the reporter reposed it in "proper French."
Noooo! Did he really? 😳 It’s the langue d’oc in the south and langue d’oil in the northern parts that were historically distinguished.
I like to respect history and historic facts and mostly local differences and traditions, I think it brings diversity to a culture!
I think France still is very diverse linguistically. We have the basque which is a unique language and many accents and patois. It’s not always easy to understand all the nuances of the French spoken in all the regions but I appreciate the richness of the language it brings. Although it took me a while to understand some very new words (to me at least) in the patois of Burgundy where we live! Fortunately my neighbors are very patient and friendly in explaining things to me! For example here they say “les ch’tis”, which I know as a word to refer to “les gens du Nord” but here it means the kids/boys, and le “ch’tites” is the girls kids. Would have never guessed that!
@@FrenchCountryLife I hope Basque is holding its own. Je m'en réjouis. The French government makes available a certain amount of funding for broadcasting and instruction in the recognized regional languages like Breton, Basque and Alsatian. One gets the impression neither Occitan nor Arpitan is doing too well. And the other sub-languages or patois of the Langue d'Oil, such as Lorrain and Gallo, are dead as a doornail from what I can tell.
GET AN ELECTRIC QUADBIKE---LOTS ESIER THAN A WHEELBARROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gosh, I cannot believe that you video a trip and do not clean your wind shield!!!
Unless you didn’t initially plan on filming the trip and then you decided to because the views were so beautiful and you really wanted to share them but you’re in the middle of nowhere with nowhere to clean your windshield? (Which by the way will be just as dirty again in 30 minutes… 😂)
France is geographically an absolutely beautiful and diverse country.. Unfortunately our towns and cities and our traditions and culture is being destroyed by the inane govt that is in power. Enjoy it while you can.😊
Have to agree unfortunately… 😔
@@FrenchCountryLife Perhaps today was the wrong day to reflect on this, All this chaos is very disturbing.
Nice video but way to much music, let us listen to the natural sounds please.
PS: this dream catcher will only give you nightmares, do your homework on occult items and better get rid of it if you want relaxed guests.
Thank you for respecting my friend and my creative choices. To each their own
Hi,Paul from Australia,
I've sold my house after just one week on the market and today I
was in successful discussions with a Real Estate agent and will be
buying a farmhouse and residing in Gracay in 60 days time :))))
You did it!! Congratulations!!🍾
@@FrenchCountryLife Thank you :) I feeling at the moment as I am starting life all over again. When you set up your home, you must have all the creature comforts, switch on energy and turn on water 24/7, go to the fridge anytime of the day, your favourite armchair every night, buying many things to bring beauty into your house and especially my automatic fantastic coffee machine :( Have your house insured etc etc etc Now to start my new chapter in life is 2 suitcases and my little canine mate. Everything mentioned above is now is now in reverse, I now have to seek out everything to get this new life in order. Cannot wait to start restoring it, find beautiful pieces of french furniture. What I'm really looking forward to is taking dog for a walk along the peaceful bird singing french countryside as shown in your stylish videos when you just go off, by yourself and admire the beauty of your new country. Be well kind regards Paul :)
@@pwilliams6405 it is starting a new life in a new country! If you get all the paperwork sorted and the bare necessities you'll then find that you don't really need very much to be happy, at least that's our experience. We've lived in an unrenovated house / building site for 4 years and are gradually turning it into our dream home and it is SO rewarding and also good to see that with a few things that make you happy, your house already feels like a home. I think your realtor could help you with the electric, insurance etc and if not, you can always ask these women (whom I know but haven't worked with myself but many foreigners we know here use their services): www.passepartoutfrance.com/en
All the best to you and enjoy your new life in France!
@@FrenchCountryLife Your very kind thank you 💐
