Best travel experience: I love France but recently took part in a Wine and Whisky Safari in Scotland which was the perfect way to spend a Sunday!

Best dining experience: In recent years, a stop at Atelier & Co., a working oyster farm in the Languedoc region of France. After a boat tour in the lagoon visiting the oyster beds with the owner, we enjoyed a fabulous lunch. The service was excellent and the oysters, washed down with local white wines, were delicious. Just perfect.
