The famed place de la Bastille just got a makeover The famed place de la Bastille just got a makeover! Join me on Facebook live on Sunday January 24, 4:00pm Paris, 7:00am PST, 10:00am EST as I take you around the new and improved square, before heading to the Marais neighborhood. The weather forecast?

Hmmmm... I wonder what participants in my new Fren Hmmmm... I wonder what participants in my new French conversation Bootcamps will be discussing this week... 😉 You may know the famous “galette des rois,” popular in Paris, but “France with Véro” always makes sure to include life in “la province” too! A local boulangerie offers the “gâteau des rois.” My southwestern French roots always bring me back to this scrumptious version, brioche-like, also known as “le Royaume,” or “la couronne bordelaise.” Too bad I can’t share with students over Zoom! My French life.
Over the last few days, the world has fallen in lo Over the last few days, the world has fallen in love with “Lupin,” interpreted by charismatic actor Omar Sy.

Bonjour, A bench with a view in Vannes, Morbihan. Bonjour, A bench with a view in Vannes, Morbihan. My last break from social media dates back to exactly a year ago, when I visited my son in California. 🙂 Time for a pause while I spend a few days with relatives “en Bretagne.” I have a new project to launch in Paris when I return I think you will approve of.

Bonjour! I am taking the rest of the week off, bu Bonjour! I am taking the rest of the week off, but first, how about joining me for a winter stroll in beautiful Vannes, southern Brittany?

Meet me on Thursday January 7. Facebook Live. 5:00pm CET, 8:00am PST, 11:00am EST. See you in Brittany! Véro
