About Me

Provence Lavendar
Provence Lavendar

Hard to put into words when your breath is taken away, but imagine rounding a bend to see a mountainside village hanging on the edge of a cliff steeped in history and culture.  This village in Provence is a stepping stone to numerous unique locales like the caves and vineyards dotting the landscape known for highly pigmented soil that artists use to capture the color in their paintings.

 

Exploring the quaint restaurants and meeting the decedents of generations of local people who have proudly served their guests over hundreds of years.  What better way to engage with personalities and ghosts protecting ancient treasures.

 

I can't talk about Normandy at all without tears, it is the most heart wrenching experience.  The WWII Memorial on one of the landing beaches is a huge monument of pillars and swords representing the young men who died on the beach with their sabors defending the pillars of freedom.  This experience is too powerful to miss.

 

Europe is about the history, culture and spirits of these places. Give yourself the freedom and time to immerse yourself and appreciate the moments when you can soak it all in.  My collaboration with you will build opportunities to see all you want to see, but also carve out the time to experience it too.
