Iconic presenter of the cult show called I'll sleep at your house. Antoine de Maximy was at the helm of a new issue of the program derived from this emblematic meeting of the small screen, entitled I would sleep among the Gauls, Friday December 6, 2024 at 9:10 p.m. on RMC Découverte. This spin-off uses exactly the same concept as the original show. Except that the host only travels to the four corners of France instead of going abroad.
“For this second episode in France. Antoine de Maximy leaves with his old convertible to meet the Gauls of the 21st century. Those who live differently or who have great energy. He begins his journey in the Maurienne valley. He meets Jean-Paul. A retired breeder who takes him to dinner with his wife Colette. When leaving, the old 504 refuses to start. He spends the night at their house“, first indicated RMC Découverte in a press release.
I would go and sleep with the Gauls: Antoine de Maximy once again traveled to the four corners of France
“Then, Antoine de Maximy goes to Aveyron where people live in cabins in the middle of a 75 hectare forest. It is recognized immediately and well received. Those who live there tell him how they organized themselves into a community and, above all, why they chose this way of life. Later, as he passes through a small town in the Territoire de Belfort, his attention is attracted by around fifteen shopping carts filled with small stones in front of a house“, the channel then added.
“He ends up finding the owner's number. The man, enthusiastic, explains to him that he wants to redo the entrance to his property but that with his mania for keeping everything, he cannot get away with it. It was in the Drôme that he discovered the Ecoravie association, an intergenerational group housing. Their inhabitants, perfectly integrated into society, explain their operating principle to him. They are both tenants and owners of the place. And solidarity holds a big place between them“, also clarified RMC Discovery.
-The host managed to enter a naturist camp located in Gironde
“Finally, Antoine de Maximy goes to the naturist camp of Montalivet in Gironde. But how to get in? Fortunately he meets Vasco who takes him to his mother Coco who lives there all year round. An astonishing woman who will celebrate her 94th birthday. As at the end of each Special, Antoine tells the behind-the-scenes story of his trip. On the menu: a shamanic ceremony, a couple of punks on a sailboat and Gaby, a hell of a number“, the channel finally concluded.
When arriving at Montalivet naturist camp. Antoine de Maximy passed a woman in a car. While he was trying to find out how to get inside this famous camp. The latter told him that it is forbidden to film residents inside. “We go hunting“, she warned him, before leaving. Finally, the host still managed to enter the camp and film a few images.
