I moved to France a year ago and this summer, in between living situations, I decided to stay in the south of France before finding a new home (thanks to Airbnb monthly discounts equalling rent payments!). In month two, I lived in Avignon, Provence. The city walls trapped in the 40-degree heat in a pretty stifling way. But there’s something about giving way to feeling hot and sweaty after months of grey cold. I love living a season (of the year and of live) in-between like this. Life is a house of cards, but nothing has collapsed by temporarily removing myself from the thick of life (read: busyness, opportunity, happenings) for something a little simpler, just for a little while.
