This episode with Bernadette and Steven Fernandes is all about letting the day happen and taking the back roads. They've been visiting France for years and mostly avoid big cities because they like the small things that give flavor to the experience. We share a few laughs and talk about cannelés, rillettes, going to the wrong Roquefort, enjoying a couple of chateau accommodations, going into the chicken coop, sharing a lunch break with a horse, the way to enjoy a day in Marseille AND two speeding tickets. We keep it real on this podcast! This episode contains great recommendations for accommodations listed on the episode page.
