Daydreaming in the Rhone-Alps region
“If I had to choose one place in the Rhone-Alps region of France to go to, I’d be torn between two villages: La Cote Saint Andre and Pont-en-Royans. Picking out wonderful food for tonight’s dinner and chatting with the merchants? Strolling along La Bourne? Engaging in conversation with local color in a patisserie or merely people-watching? Living in a cute apartment that was once market storage or a house grown out of rocks and suspended over a river? Appreciating the medieval and renaissance history and architecture and walking up and down the hills and cobblestone streets of both? Of course, in daydreams you don’t have to choose so I’d spend time in both places.”

My name is Jackie Grandchamps. In 2003, I founded French Escapade, offering another way to travel in small groups of 8. "Don't be a tourist, be our guest" is the moto and spirit of my company.

Through this blog, I will provide information about France, Belgium, California, (soon Italy) but also some stories from my guests on the tours.
