Summer in Flip-Flops: Episode 1: The French Love Affair with Camping

Forget five-star hotels — the real French summer happens under a tarp, with plastic chairs, karaoke nights, and questionable dance moves at the campsite disco. In this episode, we dive into the glorious chaos of French camping: Miss Camping contests, Friday paella feasts, and yes, a Johnny Hallyday impersonator who may or may not be your neighbor in Speedos. Grab your flip-flops and join us for a wild, warm, and wonderfully tacky adventure! 

Summer in Flipflops Icecream Dilema

Sun, sand, tiny medals, and competitive sack races — welcome to Club Mickey, the legendary French beach club where kids rule, parents nap, and every day ends with sticky fingers and a sip of grenadine. In this episode, we dive into the chaos, charm, and childhood glory of France’s most iconic beachfront babysitter. Warning: may cause spontaneous dancing to "La Macarena."

Summer in Flip-Flops: épisode 3 : Ice cream Dilemma

40 flavors. 2 scoops. One impossible decision. Between the thrill of neon-blue Smurf and the comfort of classic vanilla-strawberry, every summer hides a quiet tragedy: the ice cream dilemma. In this episode, we dive into the sweet chaos of choosing the right scoop — with humor, nostalgia, and maybe a bit of melted regret. (Spoiler: there will be whipped cream.)
