He is a UK travel author that has steered us to some of the best places we've ever stayed all over the world. We travel a little different than others in that we want to "be french" rather than stay in a US hotel in France...we want neighborhoods and commuters and ladies picking up dinner from the grocer. Which is where he's been lucky for us. In Paris it was a small darling hotel where I had tea each morning while looking at L'tour Eiffel --Or in Spain it was a farm in the hills with a cordon-bleu trained chef as the owner. All different and all fabulous. You can rent a villa with a chef and nanny and a staff or he will also list the guest houses that go with the villas - all have something a little special. He has a website - check it out. enjoy and love it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890721230860764943.post-63526102672354730482007-11-15T19:33:00.000-08:002007-11-15T19:33:00.000-08:00What a wonderful thing for your friend to do for y...What a wonderful thing for your friend to do for you....I guess it is all set - you must go!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02217566407504060905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890721230860764943.post-8400822420035880672007-11-15T18:51:00.000-08:002007-11-15T18:51:00.000-08:00What a friend!!
