About

Born and bred in Birmingham but with maternal French roots, I had a lifelong ambition to live in France and eventually moved here in 2015.

This region is very special - I love being able to walk on the beaches and along the dunes. There’s also the option to wander along the forest paths or cycle along the marshes where you can spot all sorts of birds. Each environment is special and when you add the beautiful blue skies and sunshine – there’s nothing better!

I really enjoy working on various projects with colleagues at the Pays de Saint Jean de Monts Tourist Office. It’s great to be part of their work to constantly improve the holiday experience for English speaking visitors.
