This summer, we went for a vacation in Provence, more precisely in the Vaucluse region, near Mont Ventoux. We shot a couple of short videos in easy French to take you along in our hikes. Enjoy!

2 â Hike on âLes Dentelles de Montmirailâ
Vous voulez entendre Olivier parler français ? Voici votre chance : câest lui qui a filmĂ© cette vidĂ©o !
Would you like to hear Olivier speak French? Here is your chance: he filmed this video!
Le jour suivant, nous sommes allĂ©s faire une randonnĂ©e sur une falaise avec une partie de ma famille⊠Woah, câĂ©tait trĂšs physique !! Plus dur que ce quâon avait imaginĂ© Olivier et moi â et puis on Ă©tait les plus vieux ce qui ne facilitait pas les chosesâŠ
The day after, weâre went for a hike on a cliff with part of my family⊠Wow, this was quite physical !! Harder than what we imagined Olivier and I â and then we were the oldest which didnât make things easier.
Quand mĂȘme câĂ©tait super beau â de beaux souvenirs !
Still it was beautiful â nice memories!
3 â Discover The Village of âLe Barrouxâ And Its Castle
Et puis je suis allĂ©e toute seule faire une assez longue balade â principalement sur la route cette fois-ci. Cependant, quand je suis partie, le ciel Ă©tait couvert et câĂ©tait ce que la mĂ©tĂ©o avait prĂ©vu pour la journĂ©e.
Then I went by myself on a pretty long hike â but mostly on the road this time. However, when I left it was cloudy and thatâs what the forecast planned for the day.
Surprise ! Le soleil sâest levĂ© et il faisait vraiment, vraiment chaud. Donc ma balade est devenue une petite aventure, comme vous le verrez dans la vidĂ©o.
Surprise! The sun got out and it was really, really hot. It turned out to be a bit of an adventure, as youâll see in the video.
