Tour Guide for now nine wonderful years, I am a very positive and ongoing person. It is really hard to get away the smile from my face ;o) When I decided to get my guiding license, more than 9 years ago now, I thought first, that it could be a summer job while on holiday from teaching, but I quickly realized what a great job guiding can be. I use to say, that now, my students are older than before, and are now really very interested in what they want me to speak about. Even better. I started doing tours for friends from California, years ago, then friends of their friends, and I now take people on my tours who become friends ;o) I live in in Normandy, where I was born, but I also lived in Paris, in the US , and in some other countries. That gives me the ability to understand other cultures and to adapt myself. Yet, Paradise is for me "here" in the green pastures of Normandy. Both my grandparents lived through the German occupation, and both were in the French Resistance. I have a very strong connection to my region. That really started my passion for digging in the past. After an education in Normandy, I went studying History and Journalism in Paris at the Sorbonne. As a real History buff, I have created some unique itineraries no one else did before me, like the real Viking tour on the footsteps of the Vikings of Normandy. I try as much as possible to do things the best I can. I am a perfectionist, and I assume. I am married and have two lovely daughters. Besides my family and my job, I love horses. I have horses at home. I will sure see you very soon on one of my Tours. Bye. MA in History Licensed guide. VTC Licensed under DLS.

Overview of your Le Havre tour

On this Full day tour of Giverny, Claude Monet house and gardens and of Rouen, I will share with you my passion for gardening and C. Monet. Normandy is blessed for the gardens as the weather allows almost everything to grow. Being also myself someone whose life stretches between Paris and Normandy, I really understand the founder of the Impressionist movement. Even, if the planting part of the garden is up to my wife, I love to help maintaining and choosing the rights flowers and trees. The light in Normandy changes so much throughout the day and the seasons. One can really understand Monet when living or spending a few years in this region. I would love to explain you all the secrets of his garden and of his life at Giverny! In Rouen that will be another passion I will share with you : Medieval History, and Architecture. Notre Dame Cathedral of Rouen and the medieval town at its feet is really worth a visit. And if you can you'll get on the top of the Gros Horloge to enjoy the skyline.
