This morning I'm on my way to Nîmes, France to begin a second school year of teaching English. I have had a wonderful summer with my family and friends, but most of all the ~petite famille~ that you see right here. I love you Sam and Julien, and I'll miss you until we meet again! @saywhatmachine #me #jacobenfrance #thereup (at United States)

I fondly remember taking a tour of this place only a couple days after I arrived in Castelnaudary with one of my colleagues and her friend, a historian who walked us along and told us this story of M. Riquet and his grand Canal du Midi. I was so exhausted and jetlagged still, but I remember being absolutely stunned by how beautiful the southern French countryside was. Today I biked out there, only a couple weeks before I leave, and it was a nice way to close the circle of my adventures around the Aude and beyond these past 8 months. I've never been happier to call anywhere else home. . . . . #naurouze #aude #lauragais #occitanie #france #southoffrance #sudouest #jacobenfrance (at Naurouze)

L'Obélisque de Naurouze : An obelisk built in 1827 at the "Partage des Eaux" on the Canal du Midi. The base bears allegorical inscriptions. On the north side, the coat of arms of Pierre-Paul Riquet (the engineer behind the Canal) supported by the goddesses Minerva and Mercury. On the south side, a nymph pours water into a urn, symbolizing the small stream that flows from the Montagnes Noires to fill the Canal. Neptune faces the Atlantic Ocean to the west and Venus faces te Mediterranean Sea to the East. #aude #lauragais #naurouze #partagedeseaux #canaldumidi #allegory #legend #riquet #obelisk #jacobenfrance (at Naurouze)

When I was 14, I saw a picture taken from this exact location online and saved it to my computer. At this point in my life, I had never left the Midwestern US, and I couldn't imagine any place more beautiful than this spot in Nice, France. Today while aimlessly wandering the Vieux Ville, I took a wrong turn. As I looked up from google maps I realized I was in the exact spot I had dreamed of for 10 years. I'm so grateful for this experience and this moment. When I stand at this vista point, I can see my whole life and ambitions in that skyline. ✨ (at Nice, France)

Aigues-Mortes is a little town with a big history. From its founding in the 2nd century B.C.E. , to the construction of its medieval towers and walls under Charlemagne, to it becoming a prison for Templars and later Huguenots, to its status as a safe-haven for persecuted Protestants under Catholic France, and much more until its destiny as the quiet tourist village it is today - it is such a charming place. AND it’s surrounded by pink lagoons colored by salt production and is a home for flamingoes as well! . . . #france #occitanie #gard #aiguesmortes #tourisme #sud #southoffrance #mediterranean #jacobenfrance (à Aigues-Mortes)
