In 1989, we found ourselves face-to-face for the first time with an Air France Boeing 747 departing for Recife, Brazil.<\/p>\n

Two backpacks in the hold, without really knowing what awaited us on the other side of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n

Since then, we have never stopped traveling, with or without children, by bus, moped, train, and especially a lot in our minds.<\/p>\n

When we create our clients’ journeys, on a blank sheet of paper with a pencil (… of course, also with all the 21st-century tech), we travel, imagine, and anticipate their experiences with the help of our colleagues around the globe.<\/p>\n

For that, there is no magic touch, nor artificial intelligence, just knowledge acquired throughout our experiences.<\/p>\n

From an early age, Michel was already exploring the world through the pages of his first school atlas. That curiosity has never left him – through books, on foot, by train, by moped and by plane.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Michel, almost anything can spark a journey. Every encounter brings a new perspective, and every destination offers something new to discover.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, he has built strong relationships around the world, helping him create highly personalised itineraries shaped around each traveller.<\/span><\/p>\n

A keen endurance runner, Michel enjoys long-distance challenges and the freedom of running through landscapes such as the deserts of Dubai or Wadi Rum. That same energy drives him to keep exploring new places and seeking out new experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wherever he is in the world, Michel stays connected with his clients by phone or video call, always ready to share his passion for travel and create their next journey.<\/span><\/p>\n

Always drawn to new experiences, Magali became a certified yoga teacher after spending several months on the banks of the Ganges, at the foothills of the Indian Himalayas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Already involved in many areas of the agency, she now brings a new focus to our projects: wellness travel.<\/span><\/p>\n

She combines her passion for travel and yoga through My Shop Yoga<\/a>, her online store dedicated to thoughtfully selected yoga equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Magali, travel is also a way to find the clarity and balance we need to face what lies ahead.<\/p>\n

Should you roll out your yoga mat at the foot of the dunes, meditate on a rooftop above the city, or enjoy an Ayurvedic massage overlooking the rice fields ?
She knows how to create and guide experiences that bring together travel, yoga and well-being.<\/span><\/p>\n
