A beautiful time in Luberon with Emily
Exploring the little towns of the Luberon was truly amazing! The best part of all was our guide Emily (Gordana's lovely daughter)! Emily says she hasn't been doing this very long, but she truly is professional, extremely informative...and describes everything so passionately. Im sure Gordana is so proud of her. The stops are exactly as advertised and we were given ample time at each town to explore....a Friday market in Fountaine-de-Vaucluse, beautiful stone buildings in Gordes, "Fifth Avenue " and everything "Ochre" in Rousaillon. She gave amazing descriptions of the agriculture, architecture, history and local wine production....all with a true feeling of joy and excitement. She truly brought all of the towns to life! And we even received some free French lessons...Emily, tu es vraiment le meilleur! Merci beaucoup!
