Dear Guest, I am a local bilingual guide with roots from Aix from as far back as the creation of the Papal state in Avignon (14th Century), with stories to tell of my grandparents involvement in the second world war, when the city was occupied by the Nazis. It's an honour and a privilege to show you around my mother's hometown. While I am half French, my father and I were born in the UK, so we speak British English, so well in fact, that we are both English teachers (though my Dad teaches at a business school, and I teach at the university - which is obviously more prestigious) My promise is to give you an unforgettable experience of Provence like a local. I cannot wait to see you here, to see how you react to tastes, sights and smells of my city and region. Thank you for booking with me. Benjamin BA (hons) French and Business Management None
