People call me PY (P-why)

My Expertise is all about 

Inbound Tours in France

I am passionnate about being of service to others. I always want to provide informations, commentaries, tips, news. I once heard a Navajo guide in Mesa Verde National Park telling how our ancestors could have only survived through sharing knowledge and tools. It's became my way to look at the world around me, sharing defines my work (and my guiding/tour managing).

I am here for you and for your guests.

In my life, my wife and 2 kids are most precious to me. I always take care of them first. I want to provide a safe, loving and learing environnement for them, which is why I maintain a small garden, I raise 2 brittany spaniels, 3 sheeps (my landmowers) and chickens in a 1,2-acre property in the south of France.

I am also passionnate about sports, especially soccer, which I think is the most fantastic team sport. There is so much to soccer (football in France), I can't begin to explain it in this text. Back when I was young, I love sports so much that I majored in PE teaching. Now, I volunteer as a coach for a young girls soccer team in a very rural area where there is much to be doing about giving girls the same opportunities that boys get.

Besides France, my family and I lived in Denmark for 4 years, in California for 11 years and in British Columbia for a year. I've also travelled in most other european countries, a little in Asia and some in South America. Travelling, learning new cultures and enjoying our best life are part of how we live. 

I've been on the road for the last 30 years or so. My experience includes mountain guiding, coaching, Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) level 1 (and soon level 2), expertise in rural development, tour managing, guiding and tour driving (licensed in France to drive an 9-seater van).

Visiting France is on anyone's bucket list. Write to py@french-incoming.com with what you need for your guests, I'll save you loads of time, you won't have to worry about a thing.

Much obliged for your consideration,

PY


EXCURSIONS & TOURS

French Incoming owns LOTIX, a B-to-C operator in Lozère, in the South of France

LOZERE is an area located in the south of France, just 2 hours north of Montpellier. It's the least populated area of France and is one of the best places in France to look at stars from inside the Cevennes National Park, the only inhabited National Park in France, which is the european largest Dark Sky Reserve. Lozere has canyons, mountains, bisons, wolfs and vulturs, great craftmanship in knife making, denin fabric, cheese and delicacies of course.  Activities for everyone abound in Lozère like floating down the Tarn river on a boat with a skipper (or on a kayak), looking at Standing Stones, visiting the Cathedral in Mende, meeting local farmers and cheese makers, hiking and biking, and so much more.
