As spring approaches, we want to bring some Provence sunshine to your day. So we thought we would start with an excerpt from Peter Mayle's amusing and heartwarming memoir 'A Year in Provence'.

France Just For You takes on a wonderful self-drive discover of the Alsace region, in the East of France. Famous for the Christmas markets, Alsace had also a lot to offer to travelers in the sunny season.

The inspiration for this month's newsletter came from two of my favorite things: fall and food! Like many people, fall is my favorite time of the year. The leaves changing color in the vineyards, which are full of activity with the harvest; the markets full of new fall vegetables inspiring new ...

I do love wandering around medieval towns and visiting beautiful castles – probably because they just do not exist in the US, where I grew up. It always seems like being on a magical adventure, imagining what life was like for the people that lived in these villages and castles back in the day.

After almost 25 years of marriage, I feel like I can claim to be an honorary “bourguignonne.” And I still love going there to visit my in-laws and explore the area. Dijon is a great city that has really risen up over the past couple of years and has a lot to offer visitors. Beaune remains the ...

Spring in France has sprung a little early this year, bringing back some much needed sunlight for the soul. As the re-openings draw near, I hope the article about southwestern France gets your travel juices flowing again.

On Christmas Day in 2018, we made a family commitment to take a round-the-world trip in 2020. Of course, we did not know then that 2020 would be the worst year in the century to travel around the world... We could not take the trip we originally carefully designed during the past 2 years but, come ...

Page 2020 has been turned. Although we will have to wait for a few more weeks before being able to travel again, we know that the desire to travel is strong. I felt it re-surge while writing my blog post, '21 reasons to visit France in 2021', below. I could have written 1,000(!) but forced myself to ...
