Bonjour mes amis! We have decided to start
this blog for two reasons...one is to keep our friends and family up to date on
our whereabouts and findings, two is for us to have a travel diary to look back
on and read later in life. We will include our travel itinerary, some
noteworthy stories, and of course our favorite selection of food, wine, hotel,
and activity photographs. This journey was first inspired by Tee's love
of France after a trip here with his grandparents, Bookie and Ike Isenhour.
Bookie had a passion for travel and art, but above all, a passion to share
it with her family. Tee frequently refers to his time in France with his
grandparents and even returned for a graduate school semester abroad in
Paris. The stars began to align when
Tee was offered the amazing opportunity to take a ten week sabbatical from work
and I was about to finish culinary school. We thought what better way to spend two months than a tour
of France. Tee could show me all
of his favorite spots that he has been reminiscing about for years, we could
explore new ones together, and I could see the many regions of France that make
it the culinary mecca of the world. Of course, food and wine go together,
so we will also be stopping in the different wine regions to discover what all
the fuss is about. (note - we are big California wine drinkers and will be
learning A LOT about French wines while we are here)
We are currently in the second week of our trip and
have a lot to catch up on but stay tuned for our week one recap soon! In the meantime, you can get up to the minute photo updates on instagram...(#teeandlaurendofrance)
