I come from a small village in the South of France. From an early age, I was fortunate to travel extensively across France and abroad, through my studies and personal journeys — experiences that naturally shaped my passion for discovery, while deepening my connection to my own roots and local heritage.
Today, I work as a Travel Designer, dedicated to crafting tailor-made journeys and curating meaningful, lasting memories. I love shaping experiences that feel personal and meaningful. Every itinerary becomes a narrative — a way to reveal a more unexpected, more authentic side of France.
Outside of work, I’m drawn to reading, gardening, and art (in all its forms!) — anything that carries a story, a feeling, or a sense of place.
Favorite Regions in France
I feel deeply connected to the Camargue, where I was born and raised. Its raw, shifting landscapes and unmistakable Mediterranean light carry a sense of grounding simplicity and quiet strength that has always stayed with me.
More recently, I developed a profound attachment to the Basque Country and, more broadly, the Southwest of France (where I spent three years studying in Toulouse). The ocean introduces an entirely different rhythm — softer, more fluid, almost contemplative — yet equally magnetic.
What these regions share is what I love most about France: a rich cultural heritage, exceptional gastronomy, and an authentic sense of hospitality and conviviality, deeply rooted and genuinely alive.
Hidden Gem
One of my favorite hidden gems is a winemaker in Beaumes-de-Venise (whose name I will keep secret).
He welcomes guests personally at his estate and shares his wines in a way that feels more like a conversation than a tasting. He has a very modern, forward-thinking vision of viticulture and was an early advocate of sustainable practices, well ahead of his time. Despite his recognition in the wine world, he remains incredibly humble, which is very touching.
It’s the kind of encounter you only fully appreciate once you’ve experienced it yourself.
My Perfect Day
September — when the intensity of summer fades, the air softens, and the South of France returns to a slower, more graceful rhythm.
I begin the day at the celebrated Uzès market, vibrant and deeply rooted in local life, where producers and artisans fill the medieval streets with color, scent, and seasonal abundance.
Then embark on a peaceful kayak adventure to the Pont du Gard, followed by a leisurely lunch overlooking this breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The afternoon unfolds in Nîmes, where Roman heritage feels almost alive — from the grandeur of the Arena to the elegance of the Maison Carrée and the serenity of the Jardins de la Fontaine.
As evening falls, return to Uzès for a relaxed dinner in one of the region’s excellent tables. The day closes with a quiet night-time stroll through its softly illuminated streets.
For me, it is a perfect balance of landscape, heritage, gastronomy, and the timeless elegance of the French art of living.
