Lucy & Jules: A Survivors’ Journey of Love & Family

Survivors, Best Friends, Visionaries & Founders of 4 Vents

They fled Florence, Italy, when Mussolini declared war on France. They sought safety and a fresh start away from the chaos enveloping their homeland. With heavy hearts and a sense of urgency, they took refuge with family in the nearby coastal town of Nice.

“After enduring the war’s trials and tribulations, my great-grandfather made the difficult decision. He decided to sell all his property in Italy. It was a place filled with memories both cherished and painful. He used the proceeds to buy 90 hectares in the commune of Bandol. His choice was driven by a profound desire to break away from the past. He wanted to build a new life in France. He couldn’t bear the thought of returning to Italy. The country had changed irreparably during the conflict.

When Lucy fell ill, Jules proclaimed “when she goes I’m going with her !” Jules passed twelve days after his beloved Lucy.” As told by Eric Susini

Inspired by the trails of Lucie & Jules, we have discovered the true essence of friendship and partnership. Our story is not just about the founding of a venture. It is also about the love and resilience that makes a family.
