Explore every episode of the podcast Postcards From Provence

In this first portrait episode, I'm joined by Lise Kvan, co-owner of Le Saint Hubert, a restaurant and hotel in the heart of Provence.

We talk about her life here - what brought her to the region, what it's like running a restaurant and hotel with her husband Eric, and the rhythms of daily life in Provence.

Lise shares her perspective on food, hospitality and the small details that make this part of the world so special, as well as the things that might surprise people about living here.

It's a conversation about place, work and building a life in Provence.

Spring is one of the most beautiful and quietly transformative times of year in Provence.

In this episode, I talk about what the season feels like here - the light, the markets beginning to fill again, the first warm days and the sense of everything gently coming back to life after winter.

It's a slower, softer kind of spring than you might expect, and one that reveals itself in small, everyday moments (and lots of delicious food).

If you're curious about what Provence is really like beyond the height of summer, this is a glimpse into the season that many people who live here love most.

In this first episode, I'm introducing myself and sharing the story behind the podcast - how I came to live in Provence and why I wanted to create something that captures the feeling of life in the south of France.

This podcast is a mix of personal reflections and conversations with people who live and work in Provence (from artists and writers to makers and creatives) exploring not just what life looks like here, but what it feels like.

If you've ever dreamed of living in France, spent time here, or are simply drawn to a slower, more sensory way of life, you're in the right place.
