    I love that you show us through the tiny streets where pot plants frame the doorways and cats look from the windows. I would do that. And then a coffee. Thankyou, Aselya. Always enjoyable.

    Back in 2008, when we first began to look for an apartment, we looked in Vence, but couldn't find anything to our liking. That's when we drove down to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, where we found the perfect apartment in the center of the village. Now that we bought a house just a short walk to the village of Saint Paul de Vence, Vence is only 10 minutes away. We often go there for a drink or lunch across from the Place de Grand Jardin. We even have been to the same brasserie where you are sitting in this video. When we first starting going to Vence, it wasn't very nice, but over the past several years, they have really done a lot to improve it's appeal.

I did an awesone 10hr tour of Cannes, Antibes, St Paul, Eze, Monaco & Monte Carlo from Nice. I was only in Nice for 3 days. Vence looks amazing. I appreciate how well you do the videos so I can see all the other places I couldn't get to see.
