Every In My Travels retreat is built around a specific place, a specific season, and a specific way of being present in it. These are not tours with a schedule to survive. They are weeks designed to slow you down, surround you with beauty, and leave you wanting more.
Gordes · Luberon · Provence
Gordes is one of the most beautiful villages in France — perched above the Luberon valley, built from the same pale limestone that the Romans used to pave their roads. To arrive here is to step out of ordinary time.
This retreat centers on two of Provence's oldest arts: the making of perfume and the practice of the flâneur — the philosophical tradition of wandering with attention, without destination, noticing everything. It is a week of private workshops, intimate dinners, unhurried mornings, and the kind of excursions that don't appear in any guidebook.
Only 3 spaces remain. This retreat fills before it's ever announced publicly.
Montréal · Occitania · Near Carcassonne
Most visitors to southern France never make it to Occitania. Those who do rarely find Montréal — a village of medieval stone, Cathar history, and extraordinary vineyards nestled between the Canal du Midi and the walls of Carcassonne.
This retreat stays at Camellas Lloret, an intimate property of striking character and deep quiet. It is romantic, understated, and unlike anywhere else. The surrounding region is rich with culture, history, and the particular pleasures of a corner of France that has not yet been discovered.
Opening to the public next week.
If this retreat speaks to you, reach out now. Early inquirers receive priority consideration
before the public announcement.
Each property is chosen for its beauty, its character, and its sense of place. We do not stay in hotels. We stay somewhere that feels like it belongs to you.
Workshops, dinners, and excursions designed exclusively for the group — not shared with other guests, not available off the shelf.
Felicia is present throughout — not as a tour guide with a flag, but as a gracious host who knows the region, the language, and what makes a week unforgettable.
Several meals are included — from catered dinners at the property to private chef evenings and long, unhurried lunches in places you'd never find on your own.
There is always unscheduled time — for a walk, a nap, a glass of wine on the terrace, or a conversation that wasn't planned. Rest is part of the design.
Our guests are carefully considered. You will be sharing a property with women who share your values, your curiosity, and your appreciation for the finer things. That is not an accident.
Dates to be announced
Felicia lived in Paris. She knows it not as a tourist knows a city — but as someone who has bought bread from the same boulangerie every morning and learned which rooms in which museums to visit at which hour.
The Paris retreat is in development: private ateliers, quiet museum mornings, market days, long dinners, and the particular pleasure of moving through the world's most beautiful city as though you belong there. Because, for that week, you will.
Interest list members will hear first when dates are confirmed.
