Walked 1200kms across France last year as a fifty something year old woman with calories to burn, but we all know that’s impossible with so many boulangeries to choose from.
@Sacha, loved your statement “For those of you who read my last post…”. The very emotions and the class situation you described have kept me away from an immersion course. If I can swing it financially maybe a tutor can get me more comfortable (?) I continue to enjoy your writing from sweaty NYC!
Hi Sacha! Greetings from Belfast Maine USA! I'm really enjoying reading your posts! I am a newly rediscovered Francophile, a lover of all things bread, a GenXer and a Gemini. Looking forward to reading more about your adventures.

Wow, that’s incredible! What were some of your favorite places?
So many to choose from, most towns starting with E 😉, Estaing, Espalion, definitely Conques and around the Cele Valley.

Lol, yeah—it was challenging for sure! I have heard good things about iTalki, fyi.
Wow, I'm not sure I've ever seen a raspberry croissant. It looks divine.
Wonderful, appetizing story Sasha!
Merci mon amie!
Looks amazing! I’ll have to check it out next time I’m in Dijon too! 🤩👍😘
I hope you can visit while we are still here :)
Me too!!

Hi Andrea--thanks so much for being here!
Love your newsletters they lift my day! Thank you
Thank you so much, Lesly!
What a great piece! Next time I’m in Dijon, I’m pulling up this post.
Merci, Courtney! I love your newsletter :)
Loved that and now, like most who have read this, craving croissants!
no wonder I enjoy your company...you are a Gemini!! can you do a post for those travelling to France on a keto diet (no carbs)....LOL :)
Oh, sweetie, life’s too short to be on a keto diet here 😘
I figured that ......all that bread. lord have mercy,
Always love hearing about the bread!
And I’m sure they are not a tenth as good as there!
It is truly an art here, and it's so inexpensive. Did you know that Bread Furst in DC charges nearly $6 for baguette?!?
That was delightful, thanks!
Merci, Betsy!
Wow! What a fun entertaining and informative read!
