A Trip with Politics & Prose and Wild Blue Yonder Trips with special guest, Author, Martin Walker.
If you’re a fan of Martin Walker’s Bruno, Chief ofPolice mysteries set in France, you know that Bruno is only fictional. But his region, Périgord Nord in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, is quite real, as are the foods and wines and markets and castles and characters that Bruno encounters in his adventures. As it happens, writer Martin Walker lives just outside of the town of Le Bugue, France, suspiciously similar to Bruno’s St. Denis.....CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS.

A Trip with Politics & Prose and Wild Blue Yonder Trips. THIS TRIP IS SOLD OUT.
In the early years of the 20th century, many famous artists, including Matisse, Renoir, Picasso and Chagall, escaped to the small towns and cities along the Côte d’Azur (known to Americans as the French Riviera). On this trip, you’ll journey there with other people, who – like you – love to read and discover. We’ll anchor ourselves on the tree-lined Boulevard Victor Hugo in Nice, just a few blocks from the famous Promenade Anglais along the beach. Click here for details.
