Planning your next adventure in France is a dream come true for me. It's not just because of its rich history, breathtaking vistas, and delicious food (and don't forget the champagne!). No, it's far more personal for me.

Putting it plainly, travel is part of my identity. The times that I have spent in France, in particular, have been some of the most formative and joyful times of my life from deciding to start my first business over a glass of champagne on my very first trip to celebrating my husband's return from deployment to Afghanistan. From experiencing the dream of walking in Provence's lavender fields to having a surprise private picnic in the middle of a vineyard. Did I mention I love Paris so much I got married there?

"Someday I will get to go to France" is a phrase I've heard way too many times. Traveling to France doesn't have to break the bank. You can have the most amazing trip if you know where to go, where the hidden gems are, how to avoid rookie travel mistakes, and how to best experience the wonder and beauty that is France.
