1.Studied in Aix-en-Provence

I was lucky enough to study abroad in Aix for a spring semester. I learned everything there was to know about this enchanting little city. The nightlife was great. I loved the irish pubs and a club called Scat right it old Aix. There was nothing better than having a glass of wine at a cafe to just sit and watch for hours. There was a beautiful park with an old hotel where I had lunch at least once a week. I can't begin to explain how much I miss it. If you ever want any tips I would love ... More

St. Victoire is just a short drive from town and a great hike if you're up for it. Arles and Avignon are not far either. I highly suggest exploring Provence as much as possible.

My wife and I went to Aix during a week long stay in Provence and we both really like Aix. The best raspberry tart I've ever tasted was bought in a patisserie there. There's also great cafes restaurants and galleries (Van Gogh painted a good deal here some while he was in an asylum in nearby St. Remy. Cezanne also captured the beauty of Provence in many of his paintings. A good book to read if you're considering the area is 'A Year in Provence' by Peter Mayle. It's a great vacation read as ...

My wife and I went to Aix during a week long stay in Provence and we both really like Aix. The best raspberry tart I've ever tasted was bought in a patisserie there. There's also great cafes restaurants and galleries (Van Gogh painted a good deal here some while he was in an asylum in nearby St. Remy. Cezanne also captured the beauty of Provence in many of his paintings. A good book to read if you're considering the area is 'A Year in Provence' by Peter Mayle. It's a great vacation read as its light (many funny scenes) and informative as to the fantastic food of the region. We stayed in a French farmhouse called a 'gite' (pronounced zheet) which is a great economical way to visit France. They are rated (and subsidized) by the government and allow you to experience France like the locals. I highly recommend them as its a wonderful system and help preserve the heritage of the farmers in France.
