You would be amazed at how one can create a home where they have no family. Friends, Coworkers, and Teachers can create an environment where you feel more at peace than you have ever known. Now 3,000 miles away I still think about all the lives that considered that swampland home. Thousands of students and friends that have left and are working on creating a new home somewhere else.
You can travel to every major city and still never fully appreciate what the world has to offer. New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Tokyo, Paris, London; these are must-see major cities full of history and culture. However, larger cities can lack what makes smaller towns more unique.
Southern France arguably has a richer artistic history than all of Paris. Lyon is the second-largest city in France and home to numerous festivals throughout the year and landmark churches. Lyon additionally has an attractive nightlife due to its university students. St. Remy is picturesque provencal life and includes the ancient town, Glanum, a Roman ruin. Nimes showcases a Roman Amphitheater in the middle of its town and a popular three tired aqueduct that is over 2,000 years old! In the summer, Pont du Guard is a famous spot for locals and tourists alike to jump off into the cool river below. Avignon is situated right on the Rhones River. It was under Papal rule unto 1791, leaving the city surrounded by medieval stone to this day. These cities and many more in Provance tell the political and artistic changes of the country that Paris just glosses over. Here you can see the Masters of their crafts’ homes and studios. You can see the wine and lavender fields rolling out in front of you and you start to understand a different lifestyle than that of busy city life.
