Bonjour mon ami!
Bienvenue and welcome to anyone who visits my website! It enables me to visually share with you some of the many wonderful treasures the next trip has to offer. After years of voyaging overseas, I became very passionate about finding the unusual hidden places as well as appreciating the great sights, products and food in Europe. Traveling abroad used to be an opportunity for me to take along a few friends on an adventurous escapade. Eventually that effort turned into organizing full group tours where people experience the most memorable and enjoyable adventures. "Dream trip" and "Experience of a Life Time" are some of the expressions most often used by appreciative trip participants. Before a tour takes place, I do extensive research, travel on location, visit the hotel accommodations, restaurants, museums, etc... and meet with the local people who will be lecturing and teaching the subjects mentioned in the trip itinerary.

I am an art lover and I come from a long line of French needleworkers and some of you may know me as the coauthor of "The Heirloom Quilt" Book. Being bilingual in French and English, and a needleart instructor in the U.S. and abroad gives me good insight on what textile treasures and alike await to be discovered.
The trip gathers wonderful people from all over the U.S and Canada and as far away as Australia and Africa with diversified backgrounds who share a common interest. Please join me on my next trip, meet my extended family of traveling friends and experience with all of us a memorable adventure.
