About Me

La Vie en Gateaux: Standing on a yacht in Moncao

I'm Charlotte and I'm a 22 year old French grad. I'm a country girl at heart (cue ponies and muddy walks in Hertfordshire). I'm also a bit of a yachty and a keen skier, two complete opposites but they go together quite well!

I'm such a foodie, even if what I make doesn't always turn out perfectly... the pictures I post are generally the good ones, which are the minority! I have a bright pink KitchenAid to help me on my baking way, and make cute cupcakes to give away to people. 'Cupcaking', as I call it, just makes me happy. My best form of procrastination when it comes to getting down and doing something is heading to the kitchen! 

I love all things pink, and am definitely a girly girl. Anything glittery and colourful is sure to catch my eye and I do live my life pretty much surrounded in pink!

  1. Hi Charlotte - I have just stumbled across your blog and would be very grateful for some advice!

    I am going to be working as a language assistant (British Council) in a college near Cannes but am not having much luck finding any accomodation. I have a premium membership with Appartager and have arranged a few viewings but nothing concrete yet. I fly out next week and was just wondering if you had any contacts/advice/info about potential landlords, or areas to live etc?

    I'd be really grateful for any advice!

    Thanks,

    Serena

  2. Hi Serena,
    I'll send you an email with some more detail, but I would recommend appartager for sharing, or the likes of airbnb, homeaway, leboncoin etc if you want your own place- long term rentals mean the landlords will be flexible on price most of the time. Area depends on where you are working and how willing you are to walk/ train/bus there!
