“It’s goodbye to one island and hello to another. This time, we head over the île de Ré bridge. The memories start coming back to me straight away – memories of all the summer holidays I spent here with my grandparents.”
“We board a ferry with Rosalie in Verdon-sur-Mer. About a twenty-minute crossing separates us from Royan in Charente-Maritime. Foreign lands and epic voyages seem to be beckoning to us on the wind.”
“We’re now heading for the 7th stop of our road trip in Huttopia! We carry on following the coastline towards Carcans lake in the Landes du Médoc, an area populated by pine trees between the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Gironde estuary and the wine-growing area alongside it on the other.”
“It’s time to head for the ocean! We haven’t seen the sea in 7 months, so we can’t wait. We love the mountains of Auvergne, but a bit of sea air just adds that little something extra.”
“We follow country roads to arrive in Périgord Blanc (White Perigord). This is one of the four areas of the Dordogne, all named with a colour. It’s less famous than its purple and black neighbours, which makes us even more excited to discover it.”
« Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne is a picturesque medieval village known for its old abbey, its narrow streets with their small shops and its relaxed way of life by the river. This village in the Limousin region is also the next stop on our journey through Huttopia.”
“There’s something really impressive about the Gorges du Tarn canyon, harsh and gentle at the same time. You’ve got the harshness of the colossal limestone cliffs almost threatening to crumble and the gentleness of the riverbanks, where the translucent waters tempt you to take a dip.”
“The adventure begins the moment we turn the key in the ignition. Setting off for our destination, speeding along for miles, seeing the scenery change… We cross the north of Lozère to arrive at the Gorges de l’Ardèche canyon.”
