Today Annie Sargent brings you a conversation with Elyse Rivin of Toulouse Guided Walks about the Sénanque Abbey and Gordes. This is lavender-central, but there’s more to it than the beautiful flowers! Elyse was just there on a vacation with her sisters, and she’ll tell us all about it with great tips on how to organize your visit and a little bit about the history of this Abbey. We start the conversation about the Sénanque Abbey and then move on to Gordes. #joinusinfrance #provence #Senanque #Gordes #provenceguide #provencefrance #provenceinspiration #provenceaixperience #provencetourisme #travel #podcast Episode Page | Show Notes | Transcript Table of Contents for this Episode [00:00:00] Intro [00:00:39] In today’s episode: Sénanque and Gordes [00:01:11] You can keep this podcast going!
