Aerial views of France

Lucky for me, a friend of mine has a PPL and invited me to spend the day flying around France in a tiny four-seater Robin Aircraft. It made me realize how diverse the landscape is here, and how beautiful.

We stopped off for lunch at the airfield in Gap- I had no idea that every small airfield in France has its own restaurant, and that Gap was supposed to be one of the best. I guess that's what you do if you have a plane, fly across France for lunch. 

Below are a selection of photos from the Vercors, Chartreuse, Provence, and Ardeche areas. Unfortunately there is some glare on some of the photos. Enjoy!

I told @livingfrance magazine how much I love #lyon for their feature on the best cities in France for work-life balance.

True love.
