Dear travellers,
A little less far, a little less time.
In this month of September, the trend is clearly towards short stays.
The virtues of proximity alone do not explain everything.
The general rise in prices, which is confirmed for example in air travel (a ticket costs €102 more on average than in September 2019) weighs on budgets and reduces the duration of getaways.
To leave better tomorrow?
Without a doubt.
In the meantime, for two, three days or more, here is our very autumnal selection.

Apples and chestnuts.
Here is the full season of these fruits that we take as much pleasure to pick or pick up on the ground as to taste and appreciate in all their forms.
For chestnuts, head for the Ardèche which promotes them through an AOC, and celebrates them with the Castagnades.
The opportunity also to visit the charming villages of the region, much less frequented than in summer.
