Why Living in Provence Is A Good Idea

Keith Van Sickle is my favourite part-time Frenchman, dividing his time living between tech hub Silicone Valley and St-Rémy-de-Provence, France with his wife Val, who seems to have an uncanny ability of getting them out of jams and finding the most interesting cafes. Here's Keith's thoughts on why living in Provence is such a good idea ...

My wife and I live part of the year in St-Rémy-de-Provence, a charming town not far from Avignon. We fell in love with Provence on our first visit 25 years ago and started coming back every chance we had. Finally, we decided to move here part-time and are so glad we did. Why do we love Provence? Let me count the ways.
