I am Indian living in Kolkata. This is a wonderful video. I had a chance to stay 3 nights in French countryside in 1990. Countryside is that place, where people come leaving behind the hustle bustle, nightlife, parties and shopping of cities to enjoy the slow life amidst natural beauty! It gives enormous peace and freedom in life. Maybe the life you've always wanted is burried under everything you own. My 3 nights sleep in the French countryside was indescribable. I thank you very much for posting this video.

Lovely video. Totally agree with you about what a slow life is. It can be a full life, but the pace is the pace we choose, especially the pace within ourselves. The things we do in the slow life are intentional and mindful and very, very satisfying. 🌿

Hard work and perseverance are all part of getting the life we want for our family. You are nailing it.

The best life is doing what you want, where you want to do it, with the people you want around you. You’re living the dream. Thank you for the reminder and the inspiration.

My back is tired today from much less gardening than you did. You are making your garden beautiful. I think I was born into a different culture, I would be working beside you. Love your videos.

Here is how small of a world we live in. I have the exact same cutting board you have! Here’s how large of a world we have. I can’t walk from my house to yours. Loved this episode. It felt of spring. Renew the van, renew the table, renew the garden and our faith in a simpler life. The shot of you with the table showing the seed starter kits from the beginning of the episode was a great tie in. Not sure if it was intentional, but if so, very creative storytelling!

Oh, my goodness Marloes! The Burgundy countryside is so lovely and your cinematography skills showcase it so well. I really enjoy these “ day-in-the-life” videos. It is fun to watch you cook (that carrot cake looks incredible!) and do projects around your farmhouse and explore the area around it. I also love how Tigrette keeps you company. Such a sweet kitty! Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us! ❤

Here in Australia it is Autumn now. Spring is my favourite time in my garden and you are lucky to be enjoying that wonderful season. Also, I noted one of your comments that we shouldn’t keep things for “special occasions”, but use them. I’m 73 and my husband is 83, so I swapped our every day dinnerware and cutlery for the beautiful Villeroy and Boch plates and the cutlery that my late parents brought back for me from Germany years ago. Every day and every meal are special occasions! Thanks for reminding me of that.

Your vidéos are so relaxing Marloes❤Brings me joy to watch🎉

Seeing you transplant wildflowers reminds me of our family story where in the 1890's Uncle George and Aunt Clara built a new brick house . He was working away from home for weeks on end and so Aunt Clara neatened up around the foundation and gathered up a whole lot of this lovely plant she had seen near the woods and promptly replanted it all along the outside of the house . When Uncle George got home he found Aunt Clara bedridden , being tended by her sisters . Those lovely plants turned out to be Poison Ivy and she was covered head to toe in the rash it causes . In those days it was very serious . Poor uncle George now had to get rid of it and ended up with the blistering rash too ! We were taught very early on what it looked like and we steered clear of it !! Life lessons.......I can almost smell those lilacs mmmm...you are so kind to help the neighbors , kindness is what ties us together ,,,we need more kindness !! cheers Cherryl from Canada

So quiet and feel peacefull, that the way Iike it ...

Merci pour cette vidéo après nettoyage et rénovation la table est très belle abientôt

Watching you work on that garden area, clearing and replanting reminds me that I need to get out and do the same. We are a bit behind in springtime blooms as we are still consistently experiencing low temperatures so watching your lovely plants I feel joy thinking we are not too far behind.

What beautiful walk that was! I'm so glad you took it and shared it. Thank you.

Lovely video ! So beautiful, the early spring in Burgundy ! Thank you Marloes ! 💕🌷🙏🇳🇱

Thank you so much. This was lovely. Your walk back home was so peaceful and a part of a slow life. You could have picked an entire bouquet of flowers along the side of the road. Your table came out great! Your lovely garden was a lot of work but it will be so pretty. In the fall maybe take the seed heads off of the flowers you see on your walks and sprinkle them in the garden. It was so kind of you to bring your neighbors the delicious lunch. What a difference this simple act of kindness will make in their lives. Thank you for sharing the beauty of the French countryside in spring. 🌿🌷I think I shall watch it again!

Hard working young Lady ❤- you are an inspiration for us all - blue jeans and Onitsuka Tiger shoes - love the combo 😊

Thank you for sharing! Love the slow life.

Bringing peace and hapiness in to my heart ❤️ Thank you

Beautiful vlog. Thank you for sharing!💕

My heart is with you as you go about your day and your walks. It is spring where i live , however the snow is still melting. We are at least a month away from Lilacs and spring blooms. Oh to be in France in the spring. I love your cook book !!! It has been fun trying out new recipes. Thank you so much for sharing your week and reminding us of the beauty in the simple acts of daily life. ❤

Just beautiful !!! ❤🥰

I just clicked to make sure you still have the kitty. ❤

Great idea to use wild flowers.. jasmine is one of my favourites..thanks for another slow and chilled video 😊

What a beautiful place you live in ! I love your videos .... I love your life !!

Your garden is looking lovely and natural with a hint of wild abundance. Have you thought about some very large terracotta pots for your perennials which would be easy to manage. Great to see Tigret enjoying the Spring garden. ❤🐈🐾😊

Bellissimo, la primavera, fantastica👍👋

Always so beautiful~♡~ even in the workplace. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us with your sweetest home inside and out~♡~

Lovely flowers springing to life in your garden, set off beautifully by the stone walls. There’s mixed feelings watching spring from the opposite hemisphere where we are sliding into winter, but I suppose it reinforces the idea that the cycle of life continues and I’ll get through the coming cold months x

Always look forward to your videos because I can relate to them. Slow living, gardening, cooking and color palette of decorating style. Enchanting home with gorgeous views! ❤ 🪴🌷🪻🥖 Would love to have a small cottage surrounded by Nature. 🪴

What a lot of energy you have! It reminds me when I was your age: like an engine!

I enjoyed this video so much, Marloes. Your gardens are looking beautiful and that carrot cake…delicious! 🇨🇦

Hi Marloes, Spring is so lovely in Burgundy. We spent a lovely few days wondering slowly around the region last week and attended a concert in Macon. Thx for introducing us all to La Baronne du Broc in Autun which we visited. We have a lovely stay and meals at Domain de Rymska, highly recommended! BW Maria et Rowan. PS. Your table came up a treat!

Beautiful and perfect nature 💕

Good morning from the Central Oregon coast in Waldport. Thank you for sharing yet another wonderful tour of your area of France. I ❤ the sweet sheep and cattle stares as you pass them. Also thanks for identifying the tall yellow plants. Here in Oregon the farmers post signs naming the crops! Very helpful for inquiring minds. EnJoY Spring!

Very enjoyed watching this video. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing all that beauty. Here in Ireland we are entering the 9th month of almost constant rain, the last few days were foggy, the lilac and many more typical spring plants look poor.

Many beautiful shots of the countryside and the carrot cake up close made me want to dive in :)

Ahhh spring.... can't wait to see the peonies in bloom! Btw you planted that Rhododendron too close to the wall, you should have planted it in a corner about a meter from the walls... it will get very big!

Felicidades su hogar se ubica en un lugar paradisiaco❤❤

You the great passion for natural life. I also have a much bzy life, but i havw no time for such a natural activity

Wonderful place...... ❤

Lindíssimo. Amo a primavera. 💖💐

New subscriber🎉 love your content ❤. Thanks for sharing this marvelous peaceful life with us 🙏

leaving in paradise

Thank you again for the lovely video! And I love your explanation about your version of slow life. 🫶

Adorei o vídeo. Também vivo no campo. Beijos de Portugal ❤

I love your videos, they inspire me to do more in my garden.

I enjoyed the lovely walk and the flowers you picked to plant. The garden looks very nice. Thank you for sharing some of the things you do day to day. Peaceful, beautiful countryside. ❤

Pure and gorgeous!

Another beautiful and inspiring video. Thank you!

Beautiful early spring in your burgundy region! I didn’t realize you could plant flowers like that, and they’ll come back next year. I’ll have to give that a try. I can’t wait to see your peonies in bloom! I agree with you about what a slow life is. Thank you for sharing, and I loved seeing the sheep of course!🐑

Beautiful property, so lovely! It is spring here too in my part of the world (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada), things are turning more green, flowers are starting to bloom, and our different trees (maple, oak and birch - to mention just a few) are starting to produce leaves, slowly but surely! How thoughtful to help your friends and provide a lovely meal. I’m sure they are so grateful! Looking forward to your future videos.

Beautiful job on the table!

I love the life in this place ❤

Absolutely love these videos of yourss. The cows are so sweet, always wanting to say hallo ❤omw! The breakfast looked delicious. The table looks,beautiful.

The spring was captured beautifully! I could almost feel the fresh air and smell the lilacs. Thank you!

Wonderfully filmed and edited. Who wouldn't love living in this beautiful French countryside.

I really love your channel, your home and garden, cooking and visits to other homes!

Absolutely LOVED everything about this video!!! Sublime 💗

The flowers in your garden are gorgeous.

Wow! Dream life it's amazing video

Bonjour, I think most people sitting behind a computer would trade that for yours in a heartbeat. There's a lot to be said about a slow life, one thing is that I believe it's a better quality of life. As a New Yorker, I wished I had learned that a long time ago. I love your life you created, and you are giving your guests a beautiful piece of that life. Thank you for sharing your piece of the world with us. Just stunning.

I love your channel. My way of living. New follower. Thanks for sharing. So beautiful! 👍

A life to love.

It’s poetic🍃🍃

This is the first of your videos I have seen. I look forward to watching more of them. What an absolutely beautiful place! The countryside, all the wildflowers, and your tortoiseshell kitty! Thank you for sharing.

You are so kind to take that lovely food to your couple in need in your community. I am sure they will be so thankful for this lovely food. I know how they must feel, as I too, through my own fault, have fallen on hard times with money, and so when a neighbor offers food to me sometimes, I am so very thankful for it. Love, Jilly & Madge. xxx

Walking back from the garage, you could be walking down one of our lanes in West Devon, England! It looks just the same, so green and lush. I live alone with my rescue greyhound Madge, and choose to be reclusive, due to my sever anxiety about going out and about. I am very lucky, as I am surrounded by farming land with sheep in, and nature. I often see the deer, and the buzzards out on my walks. My happiest time is being out in nature, and by water especially, as I find the sound of running water so soothing for the soul. Blessings from Jilly & Madge. xxx

Thank you Marloes. Loved everything in this video and could almost smell the lilacs. Here in New Hampshire, USA it is our state flower and we have to wait until May for it to bloom. Always a joy to see Tigrette😻

Beautiful❣️I enjoy resting on the Sabbath, that’s my slow day of the week❣️🥰💕🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

Beautiful countryside life!

French peoples are lovable 💚👍i know my fuvarate country 🙏

I have to agree, nothing slow about this, lol I know what you are saying tho. Your videos are so well put together, keep doing what you are doing & blessing us to be a part of it. I know it's alot of work to do this.

Just found you! Oranje taart, scrubbing the table, lekke band 😊 I will be watching you again 🇨🇦

Everything is beautiful in Europe. Been there a year back. Work and home life is the same from what I observed. I share the same thoughts so I'm connected. I love gardening. Cooking. Cleaning etc. Waiting for your flowers to bloom....❤

Buen día desde Bogotá Colombia 🌷🍄😊

Thanks a lot. I loved your video.😊

Gorgeous countryside and your carrot cake looked delicious!!

You’ve got such a pretty garden 🌷 ❤

Thank you for sharing your precious life!

Excellent ❤

Lovely and inspiring video, my wife and I are thinking of retiring in Europe, we've been looking at Italy, Portugal and Spain but ever since I came across your channel we've been inspired more to maybe living in the French country side and really enjoying a slow, quite and meaningful life.

Lovely pictures & beautiful nature around house 🏡 informative video

Your life is peaceful and beautiful. The green meadows, the churches, the sheep make my heart peaceful. Tables under warm sunshine, glass greenhouses also make me imagine. The way you cook is also warm. Good luck to you and your family. Greetings from Korea.

Beautiful.... Beautiful. "Be careful when working on difficult tasks and take care of you thumb finger

Hello, I found your channel by accident. Bonjour. The landscape reminds me of Ireland, 🎉

Leuk ik kwam je heeel toevallig op KZfaq tegen ik woon ook in Frankrijk sinds een aantal jaren - Bourgondië is een rustige relaxte streek Leuke bedoening heb je - enjoy 💪👍👌👏🌷

Hi thanks for sharing simple but wonderfull Moments of daily life that walk was soo relaxing the cake recepie delicious as always very very relaxing and enjoyable video blessings take care waiting for new one!!!❤️

What a full of colors. Natures .heal .

Very nice video, I like how Tigret just hangs out on the gravel stretching & getting her natural Vitamin D directly from the sun. I love that one sheep keeping an eye on you while the others didn't notice you were there, or that cow who seemed to have a bit of trouble standing up but going over to see what you were doing. That one house you & your friend went to take a look at sure did appear to need a whole lot of work, I think you really need to go visit with a friend who really knows about these types of old homes in order to make an intelligent decision otherwise it could end up costing you a fortune to fix up. The area you are going to pretty up cause it's next to the entrance to the pool, could use some color & texture, you should take a look at Rhododendrons and/or Hydrangeas, so many beautiful colors to choose from. Where I live, here in the Northeast of the USA, we have some pretty cold winters & some miserable Florida type weather in the summer, & these plants still flourish every season! I was wondering what happened to the kitty which seemed lost out in the fields? Did you decide not find out if he belonged to a neighbor? I never get bored of your walks in this peaceful place and of looking around at the different villages & homes.

Woow amazing France ❤

Your life is beautiful, all the best.

A lot of work for sure but you guys are young you got this

A package of wildflowers seeds could be used instead of grass. No mowing and the seeds would have no competition from grass so you would have a head start.

Nice life Love it ♥️

Very beautiful video

Lovely video. Yes, the slow life is full but contented ,unhurried, not caught up in others' agendas. Your home and surrounds are delightful. Thank you.💐

Beautiful as always.
