The Loire Valley is like a second home to me – my in-laws live here, and it’s actually where I got married! This personal connection has allowed me to explore beyond the tourist trails and discover the region’s true essence. I’ve spent countless family gatherings exploring magnificent châteaux like Chenonceau spanning gracefully across the Cher River, wandered through the spectacular gardens of Villandry with their geometric precision, and cycled along peaceful riverbanks connecting these Renaissance masterpieces.

Having celebrated my wedding here, the Loire Valley holds a special place in my heart. There’s something magical about toasting to new beginnings against the backdrop of centuries-old castles and rolling vineyards. Each visit feels like returning to the scene of one of life’s most precious moments, while still discovering new treasures with every trip.
