Francois my hubby....is quite charming too like the town.....LOL He is also the only person who can look at an ancient relic or architecture and tell you all about it. What century it was built in. Who the architect was who worked on, or completed it. Also, why the structure was built at the time built, and why..... Ohh laaaa laaa!

Airbnb liked my instagram photo, which was taken by my Samsung 5 by the way. Imagine my whole adventure has been by camera phone. I am no expert... I know Wine and Food as a Specialist, and my husband French Cuisine and works in Gothic Medieval architecture. We happen to love what we do, and want to share the beauty of working in France and San Francisco.
Join us and Visit us for Summer Wine tours and Gothic sightseeing! As well as Mind blowing FRENCH FOOD, French wine or Medieval Hyporcras Drinking!
Hippocras[1][2] (Latin: vīnum Hippocraticum), sometimes spelled hipocras or hypocras, is a drink made from wine mixed with sugar and spices, usually including cinnamon, and possibly heated. After steeping the spices in the sweetened wine for a day, the spices are strained out through a conical cloth filter bag called a manicum hippocraticumor Hippocratic sleeve (originally devised by the 5th century BC Greek physician Hippocrates to filter water). This is the origin of the name hippocras.

gameofseasons@airbnb Sure. It's in the same town of our petite canal house, on your site. My husband will be stoked. He's a sculptor, and he had just finished doing restoration on this Médiéval Gothique 13th century church. Collégiale Notre Dame de Semur-en-Auxois, which is located in the center on 3 Rue Notre Dame, 24110. Airbnb listing: La Maison du Pont (The Bridge House) Semur-en-Auxois, France. Thank you.😊
Thanks Airbnb and Samsung 5! https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/12820375 view listing also Nikki@gameofseasons.com to put together European Getaway together designed just for you!
If you find yourself in Bourgogne, and a craving authentic French food, or drink this incredible wine from the region!? Or do you have an interest in art, religion, ancient ruins, or perhaps you have a deep curiosity for historical medieval architecture?! I propose this stunning Gothic little city and jump on a train from Paris,(Gare de Lyon) to Montbard….1 hour! If you are driving by car(we have parking) and it is 2.5 hours from Paris and 2 hours from the city of Lyon. You won’t be sad driving, and cruising through Burgundy’s famous French countryside!
Enjoy our house, and ride bikes in the maze of ancient relics, churches, or stop in the cutest shops downtown, have a cafe, a drink in the bar, and there is also le marché (farmers markets)….which can always be fun! This is a must see, dreamy little town, that stories of legend have been written about, and dates back to the 11th/13th century.
