Raleigh, be warned. As much as I miss you, a girl could really get used to waking up near the water. The views on my last few days of runs and walks in Antibes have been too good not to share. These pictures are from the beachfront in Antibes, Fort Carre, and Port Vauban.

Hello from the South of France!
A few life updates:
- I’ve migrated this blog over from Blogger – so welcome back if you’re a returning visitor and thanks for tuning in if you’re a first timer!
- I’m currently in my second semester of the NC State master’s degree in Global Luxury Management which means…
- I’m living in the south of France through the end of April 2016!
Living abroad and not having the time commitments that go along with being in town (household stuff, social engagements, bridesmaid/baby shower duties, etc.) means I’ll have a lot more downtime and I’m hoping that means updating this blog regularly enough to share some updates from my time in France. Specifically, I’m living in a beautiful coastal town called “Antibes” and attending school at Skema Business School’s Sophia Antipolis campus. For those of you in the Triangle area of NC, I liken Sophia to RTP… but only 7 miles from my apartment in the center of Antibes.
I’ve got a killer apartment location (snagged via AirBNB!) – a five minute walk to the waterfront and literally on a beautiful street that is within walking distance to anything you might ever want… restaurants, grocery stores, cafes, the bus stop (which takes me right to the front door of Skema), and more. I’m sharing on Instagram via #SouthernGirlInFrance if you want to follow along in real-ish time.
A speedy flight from JFK to Nice, France – I’ll see this view often as I’m coming back to Raleighwood once a month to see family, manfriend, pups and check in on my consulting business clients face-to-face. 
One of the streets in Antibes – this is 10 steps from my front door. Old world beauty! 
A five minute walk from my apartment – Port Vauban 
We got to Antibes just at the end of the extended holiday season – loved seeing the lights at night!
