Hello and welcome to the beginning of this extraordinary holiday in Provence! I can't help but feel incredibly excited about this beautiful region - its charm, colors and flavors never fail to inspire. Of all the wonderful places in the world to live, Provence - especially the south of the Luberon- has captured my heart. After many memorable holidays here, I knew this was where I wanted to put down roots and call home.

It is often considered the most beautiful region in France, with its charming hilltop villages, endless vineyards, vibrant festivals, colorful markets, the warm hospitality of its people, and, of course, its wonderful climate.

​

Since June 2022, I have been the Property Manager of Les Olivettes,  a magnificent property only a short walk from the village center of Lourmarin. With a passion for hospitality I am always happy to share my love for cooking through engaging lessons in the spacious communal kitchen. Whether you need insider tips on the best local sights or assistance with (restaurant) reservations, I am there to make your stay unforgettable.
