My Exciting Adventure in France

My journey begins in Buenos Aires, where I was born on the first day of summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Years later, after spending time in Barcelona, my life took an unexpected turn one magical summer night while dancing tango on the Costa Brava. That’s when I met a lovely French woman—who would later become my wife.

Through her, I discovered my deep love for France. She introduced me to the elegance, refinement, and warmth of French culture.

Travel has always been my passion, and I’ve loved inspiring others to explore the world. Today, I’m excited to share with you the beauty, charm, and hidden gems that France has to offer. Come along—this journey is just getting started.

Diego's birth in France: A passion turned into a project

Our whirlwind love story in Barcelona eventually led us to start a French-Argentine family. I studied the language of Molière and, when our daughter Anaïs turned six, we made the decision to move to France and keep discovering this beautiful country.

That passion—to explore and to share—sparked the creation of Diego en France. This blog is where I tell our story, offering complete guides to the small, charming villages we’ve visited. I share tips to help other families enjoy these magical places just like we do.

Falling in Love with French Beauty

France turned out to be the perfect place for my curiosity—everywhere you look, there’s a postcard-perfect village waiting to be explored.

I fell in love with France, a land where history, culture, and beauty are woven into everyday life. Here, simplicity and sophistication coexist in the most natural way. And that sparked something in me—a deep desire to find and experience the lesser-known, picture-perfect villages scattered throughout the countryside.

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of walking through cobblestone streets soaked in centuries of stories. I imagine the lives lived there long ago and savor the quiet magic that lingers in the air. These places have soul—and I never tire of being surprised by them.

The birth of a project

My love for storytelling and exploring eventually came together in one clear mission: to inspire others to discover the magic of small-town France.

Through this project, I aim to help travelers—especially families—find authentic, enriching experiences. The goal is to offer well-researched guides and valuable travel tips that make planning easier and more fun.

I’ll take you through tiny villages and off-the-beaten-path adventures, starting in the South of France, in the beautiful Occitanie region. XXX

Get ready for a journey filled with emotions, discoveries, and moments you’ll never forget.

Join me on Diego en France, where history meets beauty, and every trip becomes a memory.

Landscapes and Sustainability: How I Explore French Villages

In these picturesque villages of France, I usually travel in a Hyundai Kona electric car, committed to reducing emissions and caring for the environment.

This vehicle not only allows me to explore every corner with ecological responsibility, but also guarantees a more pleasant and peaceful travel experience.

Traveling through the French countryside almost in silence is a unique experience that I highly recommend!

On some occasions, I choose the train as an alternative, taking advantage of its efficiency and the opportunity to enjoy the scenery without worries.
