The French good life – and why we love it so much in the North
France is world famous for the art of living: slow living, good food, good conversations, a timely aperitif, and no rush. Coffee in the morning, a market in the afternoon, a long lunch, and an evening that should never pass too quickly.
Especially in the north—where we often down-to-earth, punctual and businesslike his—François touches our hearts. He reminds us that it's okay: get out of the mode for a moment, smile for a moment, toast together for a moment. In living rooms, kitchens, wine bars, and offices, it acts as a gentle brake on the sprint. One look at its glass and you feel: take it easy, this is also important.
