Det er en myte, at der ikke kan falde sne i et subtropisk klima, og at man på disse breddegrader ikke risikerer at opleve en kulde, som bider i kinder og næse. Hvis man vil elske Provence, denne mangfoldige sydfranske provins, må man lære også at elske eller i det mindste tolerere et klima, som undertiden kan være mere omskifteligt og lunefuldt, end man forestiller sig.

Hi friends, my name is Glenda, and teaching foreign languages is my passion! There are a lot of different ways to learn a language—studying books, taking a class, or even watching foreign movies. But I’m an auditory learner. I have to hear and repeat the language to make it stick. In fact, when I was a teenager taking Spanish classes, I would often make my own (cassette) recordings and study for my tests by listening to them. All learning methods are valid! But there is only one you can so anytime and anywhere, and that’s what you’ll experience with this audiobook.
