Once upon a time in Bordeaux
Go on a discovery of Bordeaux and its surrounding
I have been a guide since 2005. I do this job because I have a passion for history, art, but also people, travel, wine, gastronomy and good mood! I like to do things seriously without taking myself seriously.

Discover Bordeaux, a city of stone, the quintessence of French classicism, the most beautiful of the provincial cities sculpted by its intendants and architects. Squares, monuments, avenues (...) will make you relive the Age of Enlightenment.
Relive the great hours of terror in Bordeaux, "capital of pain", with its flamboyant Girondins, its fiery Tallien, its wonderful Thérésia Cabarrus, its sinister Lacombe, its sans-culottes and its ci-devants... Ca ira!
Share the dark hours of the Debacle and the Occupation, through the places of Bordeaux memory. You will meet Pétain, de Gaulle, and all the anonymous of this sad period.

I have been a guide since 2005. I do this job because I have a passion for history, art, but also people, travel, wine, gastronomy and good mood! I like to do things seriously without taking myself seriously. After studying history, and in particular a Master's degree on the theme of midwives in Bordeaux in the XVIII ° s., I became a teacher for 4 years. I decided to flee the National Education and return to my hometown to become a guide. To my delight! Holder of the Aquitaine regional guide card since 2005, then the guide card of the City of Art and History of Bordeaux since 2011, I propose classic and thematic tours of Bordeaux, adapted to all audiences. I followed the trainings of the Bordeaux Wine School in 2007, and have been a trainer there since then. I therefore accompany many groups in Bordeaux vineyards (Saint-Emilion, Médoc...). I also offer lectures on history and art history, and courses in general culture (students and seniors). I also do research (including genealogical research) in archives.
