  • Bonjour! I just got back from a beautiful week in the south of france and, as well as soaking up the sunshine, I managed to read 3 books while I was there. So grab yourself a cuppa and enjoy my thoughts on Everything I Never Told You, Expectation and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

    Oscar's meow and peep into the camera near the end was such a perfect moment, I had to rewind it a few times 😂😍 The ending to Everything I Never Told You had me floored; glad you enjoyed it, and your holiday. I actually just got back home from the UK!

    HP is to me always a good idea, especially now when we have rain for days, when it should be summer here 🤦🏻‍♀️😔. Those books are giving me cozy fall vibes and im here for it ❤.

    I want to go back to France. I went in 2007 for Spring Break, because my sister was studying abroad in the south, Aix. We discovered how great lamb (sorry, I know you're not a meat eater) and bread with cheese on it.

    In my humble opinion it's nice to be able to talk about what you've just read, and isn't it nice not having to explain to anyone why you read on vacation? Thx, see you soon.

    • @ciarascorner

      Agreed - I’ve always just loved reading on holiday so can’t imaging not packing at least a couple of books with me!

    Where I live, we have an old WW11 air raid siren which goes off every Friday at midday and is used to alert sea rescue of any situations in the bay. I'm sure tourists here must get quite a fright :')

    ¡Thank you Ciara for sharing part of your holidays with us! They were awsome.
    I also love mugs, when you can please show us your new one.
    I think we are a kind of people that loves the same things: books, cats, mugs, walk, candles, travel... to hyyge.

      Thank you! There’s a little clip of all of my Starbucks mugs (including the new one) at the end - but it will definitely be in another vlog soon!

    Lovely vlog Ciara. Thanks for recommending Everything I Never told You, I've written it down for tbr. I loved the village you saw at the end, those zigzag stairs were pretty amazing, and the views throughout the vlog were lovely. Glad you had such a lovely time. 💕💑 💐

    Hi Ciara, the siren might have been the practice of the firefighters if it was a wednesday. Also the hiking trails should be public if you follow the GR ("sentiers de grandes randonnées"). The weather in May can be tricky, I'm glad you had some sunshine and enjoyed your holliday! 😊

    • @ciarascorner
      @ciarascorner  Рік тому

      It was a Wednesday! The hiking trails we came across had all been barricaded across with a no entry sign, so we must have been unlucky! But still had an amazing time anyway!

    Do you remember if the alarm was on a wednesday ? If yes, it is normal, it happens every first wednesday of each month in France :)

    In France we hear those sirens every first Wednesday of each month, they are from the firefighters, I believe it's done each week as a trial run to make sure that they are properly working, so if it was on a Wednesday it was likely that

    • @ciarascorner
      @ciarascorner  Рік тому +1

      They were definitely working😂 it was a Wednesday, so that explains it!

    I went to Menton a couple years ago! It's such a pretty little town, the last one in France before Italy! Happy to see you had a nice time in France!

    Yay a new vlog‼️How nice to have a little vacation/holiday in the south of France‼️Over here in San Antonio TX there’s been a lot more 🌧️ recently. The scenery is gorgeous and so is the food‼️
    Ps: I finished Arrow To The Moon it was so epic‼️ As for The Downstairs Girl I got 71 pages to go which feels delightful‼️ Last but not least I’m almost done with Zachary Ying & The Dragon Emperor which has been a total 🎢‼️

      It was lovely! We’ve had a lot of rain in the U.K. too, but I can’t complain as it’s making everything so green!

    Ukrainians hear those sirens everyday, sometimes multiple times a day. And IT IS scary, especially that we know that actual missiles from russia follow those sirens.
    Anyways, thank you for the video. Always a nice way to spend some free time))
