Weirdly enough, I became a guide because I didn’t understand a thing about modern art; why did I love a painting, or why did I dislike it, I had no clue. And I felt I appreciated it better when someone explained it to me. I’ve also always loved History, antiquities, vintage, and telling stories. And as a long-term expat, sharing cultural facts and experiences. As a result, becoming a tour guide was only natural. Guiding children is particularly enjoyable, as they are at the cross-roads of learning and having fun at the same time. And they can have fun anywhere, as long as we know how to make it fun!
As the daughter of a diplomat, I have lived and traveled in many different countries. I only began to live in France when I turned 16, and to be quite honest it was pretty complicated to understand the French… Being a licensed tour guide offers an opportunity to share not only information, but culture, history, stories and fun facts about the French.
