I returned to France this September. I stayed in the small but lovely village of Durfort in southern France in a house called La Cascade - named for the waterfall just across the river from the back garden.
Durfort is located between Revel and Sorèze. It
borders the shores of the Sor river, which leads to Montagne Noir (the
Black Mountain). It is nicknamed
Cité du Cuivre (the copper city), for the
prosperous copper artisan trade that exists there, in addition to
artisan trades in leather, glass, basket-making and jewelry.
Durfort is home to Musée du Cuivre (the copper museum), established
in 1986, to document five centuries of the local copper craft.
Following is a small assortment of photographs from my trip - all of these were taken with the iPhone 5. The camera you have with you is always the best camera.
