a deserving luxury getaway...

We have an annual holiday a year, sometimes we go overseas, sometimes we stay locally within our country.  Then sometimes you need that wow factor, extraordinary, that different kind of getaway. That could be travelling the Trans-Siberian from China to Russia, trekking the Himalayas or working on a volunteer holiday. Here at Travel With A Difference, we can assist in coordinating of that.  But what about the ultimate luxury holiday.  We read about it and we dream about it. 
Well, make it a reality.  Travel With A Difference can coordinate for you an amazing stay in a riad in Morocco, a private villa where a chef will cook dinner for you and your friends with views of the ocean or maybe its a luxury city hotel with a roof top restaurant or pool to laze by.
For travel before 30 June 2012, Travel With A Difference can offer you a saving on your luxury holiday.

at my french table...

it all started a several years ago when I met Jane Webster at a spa cuisine cooking class at Lake House, Daylesford.  She spoke of her chateau in France and I spoke of Travel With A Difference, over the years we maintained contact.
Not long after we meet, Jane packed up her family and belongings and moved to Chateau de Bosgouet in France. Here, she created her desired dream and compiled a fabulous story of her life and the culinary food tours that she offers.  Her fabulous French living life was written into a book 'At my French Table', to which I have recently purchased.  The wow factor of Jane's week long food journeys staying at Chateau de Bosgouet and reuniting with Nikole Furnari (nee Ramsay)  the photographer for the book, was something I just had to share with you. 
If you love travel, food, France, dreams....do yourself a favour and reserve a week long culinary journey or simply, buy the book.
Nikole visited and lived with Jane and her family, whilst she photographed and captured the moments of all things divine within Jane's dream...At my French Table at Chateau de Bosgouet!

a book to escape by...

French Passion...

Jane Webster is a pure inspiration for passion and getting what you want out of life. I met Jane years ago at a spa cuisine cooking class instructed by Alla Wolf-Tasker at Lake House, Daylesford.  Her passion for all things French - especially food and her Chateau Bosgouet- and mine for travel, we kept in contact.

Over the years she has continued to host week long retreats of culinerary experiences at her Chateau, have her and her family move to France for a year, compile a book on her passion titled At My French Table and proceed to win awards. 

I've just recieved word from her, that her book won an award in Australia for 'Best French Cuisine Cookbook' before going on to compete in the 'Best French Cuisine Cookbook in the World' in Paris, where she delighted in being awarded second place.




This to me, was just a reminder that nothing happens over night....but, what passion can do.  And Jane, for 2010 will be contacting her The French Table retreats at her Chateau...congrats to Jane!
