Menton on the Cote D'Azur is famous for its lemons so while I was here I felt compelled to do a sketch of a lemon coloured building with a palm tree, so typical of the area!
If you drive 20 minutes inland from Ventimiglia (Italy) you will suddenly arrive at the French border in the mountains. Only a few French signs tell you this. No passport control, no buildings apart from an old hut. Just around this bend in the road is another country, another language, another culture - amazing!
