and addicted to France, the tour company that specializes in small group tours in France. The Bonsieur everybody I'm Annie and on today's show we're talking about the

Loire Valley with Nancy Kalkins but first let me introduce myself a

little bit my name is Annie Sergeant and join us in France is the only travel show

Exclusively dedicated to helping you prepare your big trip to France. You may not hear it right away because I don't

sound like your standard French person speaking English, but if you listen long

enough you'll hear my accent. I was born and raised in France and then I went to the US for college and ended

up saying for 20 years. But I've been back living in France for over a decade now and when I came

back I decided that I needed to discover my own

country and then decided that I needed to bring perfect strangers along through

this podcast and it's been very fun.

On today's episode I talked to Nancy Colkins who has been listening to the

podcast and used tips she heard on the show to craft her own trip to France.

Then she decided to give back and spent a couple of hours with me talking about her trip.

Her son Henry talked to me also and you can hear his tips for

visiting France with teenagers on episode 159. Join us in France is a listener supported show both by the listeners who share their

thoughts on the show and those who supported financially so thank you Nancy

and to all the other people who have come on the show and thank you also

Patreon supporters.

Stay tuned after the interview to hear my thanks to listeners who support the show on Patreon, my personal update, news about

our tours and the French tip of the week. And now here's the interview.
