Substacks recommended by India Knight

Recommended by India Knight

Welcome to my newsletter. This is where I share stories from my seaside village in the South West of France, my trips to the market, weekly recipes, and updates on our house renovation. Most of it’s free, and will always be free.

I think this was the first Substack I ever subscribed to. Fantastic recipes, house renovating, life in France as a former Londoner.
