In this video, I kick off an unforgettable journey to Normandy, France, with a delightfully empty February flight. I’ve been going to Normandy since 1986, yet this was my first visit to the town of Pont Audemer and it blew me away! From the enchanting streets of Rouen to the artistic charm of Honfleur and the serene canals of Pont Audemer, join me as I reconnect with my French host sisters and explore the lesser-known beauties of Normandy.

Places visited in this video include the vibrant cityscapes of Rouen, the picturesque beaches near Honfleur, and the quaint village of Pont Audemer. Amidst these adventures, I share a touching moment in remembrance of my French host mom, who I lost last year, lighting a candle in a local church, and revel in the simple joy of walking past Normandy’s beautiful cows and scenery.

Connect with me as I navigate train delays, encounter street musicians, and uncover the artistic recycling bins that dot the streets. This trip is not just about the destinations but the heartwarming reunions and the personal journey of exploring France.
