  1. Hi Annie,
    It was great hearing an Australian voice in this trip report!
    I enjoyed this episode – I haven’t spent time in Brittany as yet, but it will have to be included in a future visit to France. I’ll share the episode with my sister and brother-in-law who will be visiting Saint-Malo for the first time this year.
    I don’t know if you received a message I sent via the podcast website a week or so ago – offering a trip report if you have space for one. It would be the Australian perspective again! My husband and I drove from Nice to Bordeaux and had some fabulous adventures along the way, in wintery Christmassy France. And just to follow that, we’re heading to New Caledonia for a mini-break shortly!
