Hi ! I am Gaëlle. I was born in Arras and grew up in the Region where I studied English for 3 years and then Tourism, Art, Culture and Heritage for another 3 years. I have been working in a tourism office for 9 years, so I know pretty well the places to go and their history. I love my Region and I really love sharing it with people. There are so many things to discover in the Region of Lille and that is why I love it so much. In the heart of Europe, the Region is full of history and culture. The landscapes are very different from one side to the other side of the Region and the architecture in the cities is fabulous. But the thing I love the best about my Region and which makes me feel so proud being part of it is that we are really friendly and welcoming! Private tours is the best way to really get close to the culture of a country as we will spend time together, I will be happy to talk about our history, our heritage but also our culture in general. You will be treated as family during your tour, and my only aim is for you to have the best memory ever and the wish to come back soon :) I am flexible in terms of tours customization. I have a Master degree in Tourism, Culture, Heritage and Art and another Master degree in English. I am not a licensed guide and will not be allowed to guide inside the museums.
