Now, she runs Trendline Europe from Aix en Provence in the South of France.

In Aix:
The recently opened Hotel de Caumont
The flower markets in front of the Palais de Justice
A glass of rosé in her favourite square des Trois Ormeaux.

Outside the city:
Chateau Lacoste, which Samantha describes as “London art galleries in the Provencal vineyards.”
TASTE:
The calissons d’Aix
The tapenades in the markets
The chilled rose from the nearby vineyards

At the Musée Granet the beautiful old art gallery
Wonder around the gardens of the perfectly manicured Pavillon de Vendôme
