Wow! A writer is pitching a story about me to More magazine. TToday, she asked me what is the essence of the purpose of your trips that is different than other tours? What is your role in this purpose? Here is my response:
This is a very good question and one that I have been contemplating. This is not your typical tour to France. When I travel, I don't like the typical organized tours, but I love being escorted around the city with a friend who lives there so I can get an intimate feel for the place, as a local not a tourist and I want my guests to feel that way.
But these trips are about much more than just experiencing Paris. I have a passion for Rural France which is so inspiring by its natural and historical aesthetic beauty and it is being pressured to modernize.
I created Find Your Self in France to inspire women to Find Themselves, rediscover their passions, awaken their senses and also to bring awareness to the treasures in France before they disappear. In the US, we don't have stone buildings dating back to the middle ages, we don't have a regional wine, cheese and gastronomic dishes from each town.
I want to save rural France as much as I want to inspire women to follow their dreams. What better place to do this while dining in the salon of an 19th century chateau, picnicking in secret gardens or a vineyard on delicacies grown in the local village or taking cooking classes at a refurbished mill.....
