A few years back, contributing Realtor and Sullivan’s Island photographer Rob Byko and his wife, Karen Byko, had a fun trip in Provence in southern France. Rob shares some photos from that trip as a virtual break from the toils of sheltering at home. He writes:
“A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh, the fundamental things apply, as time goes by…but after weeks of self-isolation, Zoom-meetings and hurried trips to the grocery, your ability to maintain a positive mental outlook has been called into question. The kids are home from school, the twenty-somethings are back at home AND out of work. The kitchen is a mess — too many home-cooked meals and too many dishes left in the sink. Your nerves are frayed and you’d like to just get away, but summer travel plans are on hold for obvious reasons.
“So, take a virtual break from the madness this morning and walk with me through the streets of Provence. Take in the sweet life in Avignon; the windows and whimsy of St Remy; and, one of life’s most colorful palettes, a street market in L’isle sur la Sorgue.
