Embedded in a large wildlife park in the Languedoc region is a slice of French paradise. Mountains stretch into the sky, littered with green and running throughout it all is clear water. The natural rock formations create pools, waterfalls, streams - it almost seems like a Garden of Eden, something too perfect to be part of everyday life.
As we climbed the road searching for a good spot, I couldn't help express my awe. I think the family I was with (who live there - more on them later) found it comical. It was so normal to them, a regular summer day trip. But coming from almost a year of being tuned into London life, I couldn't be happier to be somewhere so natural, so peaceful.
