    1. Aselya votre voix est tellement apaisante que c’est toujours un plaisir d’une nouvelle vidéo.
      En plus vous nous faites découvrir des endroits avec un œil très avisé .Cela change des vlogs bling bling sur la Côte d’Azur . Le petit Mat nous a un petit peu manqué avec son charme infini mais on comprend que vous ayiez besoin d’un week end en amoureux de temps en temps. J’habite dans le nord de la France et Aix est sur ma to do list .
      Merci pour ce joli aperçu de cette belle ville et continuez à nous enchanter avec vos visites.

    2. Despite huge numbers of tourists, no rubbish on the streets, no overflowing bins lining the street, no graffiti on the walls, no illegally parked cars. Well maintained private buildings. A city under control for the benefit of the people.
      What on earth has gone wrong with the UK. The condition of the environment and the respect people have for it is indicative of the mental mindset of the country. Couldn’t care. Don’t care.

    3. Thank u for bringing us on this beautiful getaway to Aix. You gave us a very good tour as if we ourselves were bodily there. Now from California we have a good idea of what this lovely town is like. The Weather looked great and all in all, your video was an excellent trip there! Thank you.

    4. Il me semble qu'on voie tes vidéos toujours quelques jours en retard, mais malgré ça, elles nous plaisent toujours ! J'y étais, une fois à Aix en décembre, mais il y a déjà des années. Je me souviens bien d'avoir acheté un bracelet à un des marchés au Cour Mirabeau gue j'ai toujours ! Ta vidéo évoque de si beaux souvenirs ! Merci comme toujours, Aselya ! Et Chris, toujours aimable !

    5. Nice video and all of you guys 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

    6. Beautiful town. You did a wonderful job navigating us through the old church and the museums – nice and slow to be able to actual view the beauty of every corner. Au voir 🙂

    7. Thank you so much Aselya for another stunning tour of an incredible town. How wonderful you got to see the Olympic torch!
      Love from Mary in Southern California 💗

    8. Many thanks for this terrific tour, Aselya. I love this city of a thousand fountains, especially the one near the marketplace, as well as your cozy accommodation. Fine food, architecture, art and magnificent cathedral with its wonderful bells — vive la France❣

    9. You should do a video that gives us more of a peek into your personal life. Like what brought you and your husband to Thailand in the first place? Are you originally from France as well? Do you teach your son english as well? What does your husband do for a living? Do you guys plan to stay in Gorbio forever or will you eventually relocate again when Matt gets older?

      I'm so curious. Your life is so enviable and I'd love to accomplish the same for me one day.

    10. This is such a beautiful presentation of Aix. We have never been there, but wow! Thank-you for showing in detail the amazing architecture and art, cathedral, shops, city life day and night. We felt we were right there with you two Aselya. You are very gifted in how you present and the crisp quality of your work is admirable. Harald and Lyn West Coast, South Africa ❤

    11. we'll be in Provence this summer and this video made me just so excited! it was so cute to see you and your partner enjoying a new city, thank you for sharing!
