Gastronomic Diary of France and Provence
My name is Ava. I am from Austin, Texas. I included a picture of Austin on this page. I enjoy hanging out with my friends, going on long walks, making new recipes, finding new restaurants, working out, and shopping. I am studying advertising and fashion media at school. I chose to come to Aix-en-Provence this summer to study fashion media in a country that inspires fashion trends throughout the world. It is such a unique experience. My primary thoughts and expectations about food in France was that there was going to be a lot of baguettes with brie and ham, and many croissants. I feel like that is pretty common for people to think. I had never been to France before this summer. I had no clue what to expect... but I am very happy with the food I have eaten!!
