 Welcome
to the Var Village Voice
The
unique, and slightly eccentric Var Village Voice celebrated
its 10th Anniversary in 2005. It continues to gather readers
from all over the Var region, helping them enjoy everything
the Var has to offer from local village events, to major
summer festivals, helping them socialise, have fun, and
join in the activities of the numerous expatriate organisations
dotted around the region.
