Julie

Operations Manager

I am originally from the Provence region, and I have held various operational roles in the tourism industry since the beginning of my career. From 5-star hotels on the French Riviera, to restaurants and back-office positions in travel agencies, I have always enjoyed organising logistics and showcasing our region in all its diversity.
I started as an intern at French Promise ten years ago, then progressed to a travel designer role before taking on operational responsibilities. I enjoy being at the heart of the action within the back office each season and coordinating the successful delivery of our clients’ stays.
 

Favorite Regions in France

Among my favorite regions are undoubtedly Provence and the French Riviera, which I know particularly well. My curiosity also leads me to appreciate all regions, including the lesser-known ones, which require more creativity in their design and often hide small gems just waiting to be discovered.

 

Hidden Gem

Being originally from the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, I could not mention any other place.  Although this region is less well-known than other parts of Provence, it is the ideal destination for an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience.

 

My Perfect Day

A morning hike enjoying scenic views, followed by lunch in a typical bistro and a village tour in the afternoon, meeting local artisans and craftsmen. It is the ideal way for me to experience any region, combining an active outdoor experience and local culture.
