Provence Unpacked with Level8
As grey clouds hung over our home near Portsmouth, we eagerly anticipated the sunny escape awaiting us in Provence. Our trusty Level8 suitcases were all set in our hallway, their stylish look hinting at the adventures ahead.
Opting for the comfy services of DS Airport Cars, we began a journey that seamlessly mixed travel ease with the charm of a Provencal getaway. The roomy car easily held all our suitcases, making our way through the cloudy English weather towards the warmth of sunny Provence.
The drive from Portsmouth to London Heathrow marked a shift, with our Level8 companions embodying the excitement of a sunnier destination. DS Airport Cars provided a smooth ride and treated us with excellent service.
From cloudy Heathrow to sunny Marseille
At Heathrow, our smaller suitcases and sleek backpacks joined us in the plane cabin, ensuring quick access to our essentials under the clear skies. In the plane's hold, the bigger suitcases waited, safely tucked away for the transition from cloudy England to the sunny South of France.
Touching down at Marseille Airport marked the start of our sun-soaked adventure, and DiscoverCars kept the good vibes going. Choosing a car with enough space in the trunk, we found our suitcases effortlessly fitting in. The well-thought-out design of the Level8 suitcases made loading and unloading a breeze.
As the wheels of our rental car embraced the sunlit roads, we headed to the charming village of Bonnieux. Here, our Level8 suitcases proved their worth. The cobblestone streets, shining under the Provencal sun, posed no challenge to the suitcases' sturdy and easy-to-move wheels.
In the heart of Bonnieux, our suitcases became more than just carriers of clothes; they glided gracefully over the stones, telling the story of our journey as we strolled towards our Provencal haven. Let the journey begin!
