The French love a good Christmas market and the Gourdonnais are no exception. This weekend, local artisans will be setting up stall in the wonderful Les Cordeliers church. We will be there too, getting into the Christmas spirit and getting a few presents ticked off the list. We will also be doing the rounds of the other local Christmas markets, including the famous Christmas village in Sarlat, with its outdoor ice-skating rink and delicious food.
Vin chaud, anyone?

The new owners of the coffee shop D'un monde à l'autre are "cofficianados" without compare. Nathalie and Laurent, originally from the Paris area, do torréfaction (coffee-roasting) on site, using coffee beans from all over the world. Situated à deux pas from the school, we often catch the delicious aromas! The owners are happy to explain the how and why of the process and give you their recommendation, whether you pop in for a noisette or an allongé. 
Ça donne envie !
