Just 20 minutes by private boat away From Cannes, L’ile Saint Honorat’s is home to a community of monks who live a chaste life surviving off the vineyards. After our guide told us about their history and all the regional ramifications of their influence, we enter the vineyard, accompanied by the master of Chaix. Then, we discovered the cellar that very few people know about and begin an unforgettable tasting of the abbey's wines from 6 different grape varieties. It was just the start of a memorable day followed by a lunch in the arbors and an afternoon of swimming in the turquoise waters of the Lerins Islands. JUST AMAZING !

After a stop with a breathtaking view on the valley of Luberon, we stopped at Senanque abbey , a magnificient architectural gem of the 12th century where a small community of monks still lives and cultivates lavender. Then we pludged into the purple of lavender !

We disocvered the newly renovated Alberto Giacometti courtyard and exhibition Room with our Private Guide. I was fascinated to explore to explore themes derived from Freudian psychoanalysis, like sexuality, obsession and trauma.
