EP 1: CHATEAU ROMANCE, BEDROOM DIY, HOW TO NOT CUT HAIR, BAGUETTES, & WHO WE ARE!
Ойын-сауық
@ChateauLove ** Chatelaine Vivienne embarks on her first vlog with the help of her loyal sidekick (and husband of 24 years) Simon. A madcap haircut, reflections on life in France, some DIY in the chateau's smallest bedroom, romantic cooking, and a Valentine's Day dinner ensue. Simon voices conspiracy theories over French baguettes. There is some debate about who is actually doing "all the work".
ABOUT US:
Hello! I’m Vivienne, the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful (and wonderfully funny!) husband, Simon, our teenage daughter, pets, and -whenever possible- lovely friends and family.
This is not our first château! 20 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, nearly 18 years, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and -of course- antiques and art!
We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!

We have just binge watched your first 3 episodes and we are in love. We have been addicted to Chateau vlogs for a year now and it was so refreshing to stumble accross your fabulous take on chateau living. Your personalities are what makes you both stand out but we love your life style (especially your love of cheese and wine) and your many skills also. Thanks for sharing your humour and love of life and family. Regards Sharon and Barry (Adelaide Australia 🇦🇺)

This is Debby from the southern most part of Mississippi, Biloxi. I am using my grandson’s account to say hello. Stephanie says to visit your site, and, as usual she has made a wonderful suggestion. I have subscribed and feel I am going to love learning about your life in France! You and your husband are delightful! I loved seeing you and your sweet daughter on Stephanie’s channel. I am a retired nurse with an inherent love of all things French. I actually live about an hour away from New Orleans and love that French city.
What a delight! You two have a wonderful relationship ❤️ Looking forward to your vlogs.

I have watched Chateau Diaries, as well as Michael’s channel for well over a year now. This is a gift beyond my wildest imagination, I am enjoying everyone’s channels more than I can express. Long ago, I was a grammar school student of the Romance languages. At one point my instructor was the head of the language department at Wayne State University in Michigan. He told me I had a gift, in particular for French. Alas life and marriage intervened, I did not make it to Britain, or Europe. At nearly 70 now I am vicariously living my dreams through these channels. How could I ever have envisioned so many Brits moving to France to restore so many lovely chateaux? Fun, exciting, sometimes thrilling-absolute JOY!
Love the first video! I’m excited to see more. 😁

Greetings from cold and snow covered Toronto, Canada. So glad to have found yet another vlog about Chateau life. Yours I must say was so enjoyable, full of laughter and you included various features....little of your family history, decorating ideas, cooking and of course the beautiful table set for your romantic supper together. This first vlog is so interesting and fun-loving! Can't wait for your next one. Have liked and subscribed, as I hope many will do also! Merci beaucoup.
