As a specialist in French travel, culture, cuisine and language, I have lived in France for almost two decades. After obtaining a French Language Degree (D.E.L.F.), I studied wine and cuisine at the famous Cordon Bleu Institute in Paris where I later became a translator/interpreter for the Cordon Bleu’s top chefs. Soon, Gourmet Walking Tours in Paris became a daily event which led to culinary tours throughout most of France. Today, I share my time between Atlanta and Paris, the United States and France, and enjoy sharing my passion for French Language, Culture, and Joie de Vivre.

Hi Deborah…it’s Mark McDowell. Hopefully you can dust off the cobwebs and remember me. I was making the online rounds of the more memorable people from my LCB (2009) past and thought I would look for you and see how you are. It looks as though you’re doing very well and still enjoying life to the fullest.
Bonjour!
Nice to hear from you! Thanks for reaching out. Life is good!! Where are you these days?
I will check out your blog and see what you have been up to.
Cheers!! A bientôt!
Mark, are you on FaceBook or Instagram?
