Bretagne 🛥️

Brittany is a peninsula that extends westwards into the Atlantic Ocean, with the Bay of Biscay to the south-west and the English Channel to the north. Its 2,700 kilometres of coastline dotted with sandy beaches, cliffs and isolated islands are an excellent reason to visit.

The oceanic taste of oysters, the succulence of fresh scallops, the crunch of kouign-amann, a heavenly crêpe with salted butter caramel, a bowl of sparkling cider, ripe strawberries from Plougastel, a strong buckwheat whisky😋 These are just some of the flavours of Brittany!

Brittany is all about escapism, walking, gourmet delights, dreams and discovery. On the footpaths, on the beach or in the cobbled streets, breathe in the sea air and let yourself go: that's Brittany!

We have a fantastic recommendation for you:
The man who shoots faster than his shadow, known as Lucky Luke 💥

"He is a brave and lonesome cow-boy known for being the fastest shooter in the Wild West, being able to outdraw even his own shadow, and for chasing the Daltons".

"Voulez-vous jouer avec moi?" (Do you want to play with me?) Your kids will have a blast playing and learning in our French weekend class. 🎨🇫🇷

In France, a bean 🫘 is called "Haricot" while in Quebec, it is called "Bine". Is Quebec French just English with a moustache? 🇫🇷🇲🇶

Notre dame de Paris 🕍

Notre Dame de Paris (Meaning 'Our Lady of Paris' in French) is a Gothic cathedral in the fourth arrondissement of Paris, France. Construction of Notre-Dame de Paris began in the 12th century but was not completed until 300 years later. Notre-Dame cathedral consists of a choir and aspe, a short transept and a nave flanked by double aisles and square chapels 💒.

Today, it is one of the most important cathedrals in France and one of the oldest. Although it is mainly in the French Gothic style, some parts bear witness to the Renaissance and Naturalism periods. These different styles add to the exceptional and eccentric beauty of the building.

💥Let's discover one of the best French series today!

"A retelling of the classic French story about Arsène Lupin, the world-famous gentleman thief and master of disguise".

Lupin is a French mystery thriller streaming television series created by George Kay and François Uzan that premiered on 8 January 2021.

If you like action, adventure, mystery and heists, we'll not be disappointed!

Today, we celebrate the richness of the French language with Archibald through a Quebec expression 🇲🇶

"Se lâcher lousse" means give free rein to your impulses, celebrate or party! 🎉
The word "lâcher" comes from the Latin laxare "to relax", from which "laxatif", "laxiste" or "relax" in French are also derived. The word lousse comes from the English word loose in the sense of not being tied down and giving oneself total freedom, knowing no limits. This gave rise to the expression "lâcher lousse" (to let go) to express the idea of doing what one wants to do in complete freedom!
