Following the sun, you can’t help but find joy and peace when visiting the astonishing French Riviera. Over the years, I have visited multiple villages along the coast. From east to west, the Riviera sprinkles its charm over its visitors.

Running through fields of lavender, learning more about this aromatic plant and its importance for biodiversity and our ecosystem, spending hours smelling, seeing, and listening to the whisper of the wind playing through the plants’ ears—this is what I captured in my photographs. Whether wide angles or close-ups, I focused on the beauty surrounding me. Colors like blue, green, lilac, and earthy tones were the primary palette I concentrated on.

Leaving Aix-en-Provence and heading east, I visited a very charming Provençal village. Mixing hills and sea, Bandol cannot help but surprise you with its typical French Mediterranean allure. Cypresses, pine trees, clear waves, blazing sunrises, and more treats to your sight, leaving you with a heart full of warmth and a mind full of everlasting, beautiful memories.
