What the creator captured
Chad and Claire explored the Gorges du Verdon by kayak, noting the intense heat and significantly low water levels caused by a regional drought. They particularly enjoyed the hospitality of their local homestay host, which included picking fresh tomatoes from her garden to cook a childhood-favorite egg dish. Claire also celebrated the launch of her long-awaited silk scarf collaboration, which she wore as a halter top during their provincial adventure.
