00:00Travel plans were put on hold during the pandemic.
00:11Now travel restarts again and old connections are restored.
00:16We want to make new friends and refresh old contacts, visit the most exciting places and
00:21come back with the best memories.
00:24And these memories we want to share with you.
00:36In Perigord, gastronomy is a religion and there are two very important things to know,
00:41the presence of geese and ducks.
00:43The other treasure that we have here is the Perigord truffle.
01:02You get your farmhouse goat cheese from the region.
01:05You can find only some small sellers in the Perigord which are allowed to make cheese
01:09from goats.
01:11The weekly market is an institution in France.
01:14Here we meet real originals.
01:38And also can stock up with fresh regional goods.
01:55I am Michael Cramey, I have been a wine merchant in Bergerac for 20 years and I sell of course
02:00wines from the Bergerac region, all the appellations of Mont Basilic, P Charmont, Mont Ravel.
02:07And then I have a specialty of old bottles, I sell wine from customers' birth years.
02:29I'm Caroline, I'm the manager of the bookstore La Colline au Livre in Bergerac.
02:34It is a bookstore that I took over with my husband in 2018.
02:39It is an independent bookstore, which allows us to select each of the books here.
02:44We try to be as much as possible in adequacy with the Bergerac Rois, but also the life
02:48of the city, that is to say its seasonality, the customers who come on vacation or to discover
02:54a little of this region.
03:12It is a general bookshop, which means that the variety of books is composed of a cookbook
03:16for example, as well as a book of stories for young people, literature, detective stories,
03:22urban sciences or comics.
03:50I created this brand and this company to be able to make my city which I love very
03:54much, more dynamic and to offer things that have not been done at all in Bergerac yet.
04:01First of all it is a series of textiles with the brand Peninsule, based on the description
04:06of the nose from Cyrano de Bergerac, the stage play by Edmond Rastan.
04:11Quite simply that it is our as Bergeracois.
04:14To give us a spirit to belong together and then to share it everywhere with the people
04:18who love our city, who love Cyrano de Bergerac and Edmond Rastan.
04:38And then, finally, always in an ecologically responsible approach.
04:42That means the textile brand and Bergeracois since it was founded by a man from Bergerac,
04:47master Laurent Marti and that all the graphics and embroidery I designed are produced 10
04:52minutes away from Bergerac.
04:54You collect lifestyle from Perigord, because here we have an exceptional quality of life,
04:59a climate which fits perfectly, and a convivial lifestyle.
05:03I also offer goods coming from local craftsmanship.
05:07Within a maximum radius of 30 kilometers from Bergerac, I would say that 80% of the products
05:12come from the region.
05:22Especially the wine, table and wine glasses that I created, country wines, because we
05:28are a wine growing region.
05:30We keep our bottles cool with this.
05:42Bergerac has a brand new cultural center, Dordana, that will finally open in June 2023,
05:48and I don't want to deprive you of it.
