Meet Gina Hunt of Paris Personally

I’m pleased to introduce you to Gina Hunt. She’s an American in Paris and is the owner of Paris Personally – a travel company specializing in small group trips. Gina and I are friends, when we met we just clicked and I’ll know you’ll enjoy getting to know her too.

Gina carefully designs each of her trips from the perspective of a long-time resident and the rave reviews on her website www.Paris-Personally.com say it all about her integrity and attention to detail for each of her clients.

Her small group trips are unique with no single supplements and a private room for every traveller. Now that’s what I call the perfect escape if you’re travelling solo!

I sat down with Gina to learn about her story of falling in love with Paris and her courageous journey to move here over 10 years ago. Don’t miss Gina’s article in the upcoming March/April issue of Belle Inspiration. In the meantime, check out her site here: www.paris-personally.com

Paris in Pink

Paris room in Pink

Pink is a favorite color – the thought of living with it on the walls… not so much – but the way it looks in this gorgeous room in the Musée Carnavalet in Paris would definitely work!

It may be the way the light from the chandelier softens the color and the greenish-taupe accenting the ornate woodwork. Either way we love it? What do you think?
