In MY FRENCH LIFE I share my insider's view of life in France. In 1999, with my husband and three children, a lifetime dream became a reality when we bought a farmhouse in Saint Rémy de Provence. I spent three years lovingly restoring the farmhouse, bringing the abandoned fruit orchards back to life and planting an olive grove of more than two thousand trees. This story is my personal tale of taking risks, facing challenges and falling in love with all things French. The photographs taken by my supremely talented friend Carla Coulson are both lavish and exquisite in every way.
FRENCH ESSENCE is a celebration of life in Provence, one of the most charming regions of France. I believe that ambience, and living life with ambience is the unique ingredient that differentiates life in France. There is something about the French and the style in which they live - their ability to blend all the senses - that makes for a life filled with emotion and a life in which the senses are forever stimulated. Gorgeous photographs, by Carla Coulson, of timeless interiors, of charming Provencal towns and villages, of private gardens and breathtaking landscapes illustrate what I like to call, 'French sense'.
