we went to South of France for our short break. I really needed that. Chilling out in the medieval village in France, how romantic.
We went there before, Marcus went there many times, he took his mum there, his clients there for qi-gong retreats. Sure, it's wonderful place to do some qi gong and yoga.
One evening, I couldn't sleep, woke up in the middle of the night. So I went down stairs and did some yoga and qi going for an hour or so... I slept o.k after that.
What excites me the most visiting another country is; food. I love my food. and shopping from a health food shop. There in France, where we visited, there was a very nice health food shop. As usual, we did some trips there to purchase our favo food. And I bought some souvenires ( Sugar free vegan chocolate. No sweetener either. It was espresso flavour and delish!) for my yoga teacher, Marcus's mum, and myself. Yum Yum.
This 100% buckwheat pasta tubes were yummy, we had them a few nights during our stay. Why can't we have them here in England? Flakes were for our breakfast, we had them with soya yogurt and fruits.
We always keep our food fairly healthy. Until I see pastries! I love my cakes and pastries, when I'm in France, I want to eat yummy pastries. why not? At the end of the day, they do the best of French Patisseries.
I didn't eat as many as I normally do, as I started feeling in my body when I do wheat and sugar, getting old???
I love the rustic pastries, nothing beats home made!
The lady in the shop told me they were called packet de cookie (I'm pretty sure my spelling is incorrect!). In olden days, pilgrimages ate those cookies. Very French, baked till brown. I love how they bake. So as Italians!
Oh, one more thing I ate and absolutely loved was pistachio nougat. OMG, it was more delish than what I expected. Took me a few days but I ate all. Yum Yum.
Can't wait go on another holiday!
