Mon accent, mes racines 🇫🇷
Pourquoi est-ce que je parle encore Provençal alors que je vis au cœur de l’Occitanie ? Et surtout… où se cache donc le Marseillais dans tout ça ? Entre Pagnol, les souvenirs d’enfance, quelques mots bien de chez nous et une langue occitane qui se décline en mille accents, je me suis posé la question. Deux billets, une petite plongée dans mes racines… et quelques surprises au passage.
Venez découvrir pourquoi, chez moi, les langues du Midi ont tendance à se mélanger joyeusement ! Le Provencal et le Marseillais

Closed by order of the authorities 🇫🇷🇬🇧
Nothing says ‘welcome to lunch’ quite like a padlocked beach restaurant.
