Some of you may relate to those truly special journeys that seem like a gift from the universe because they end up being so much more than one can hope for. This Two Bordelais<\/a> food and wine trip was one of those journeys, We all have certain expectations when we travel, but when unexpected, inspiring connections occur during a trip – moments that make us see a wider landscape of life, make us feel more alive, and make us sense the divine aspects of our existence – these journeys stay with us through our lifetime. This trip was filled with many wonders including intuitive and spiritual synchronicities which always make my heart feel full and lift my spirit. In this journey I felt in the flow of my life. There was a greater awareness of myself, an embrace of my surroundings, and a clearer sense of who I was, how I was, and how I was held and nurtured by the people, the land, the cooking, and by the delicious food and wine we tasted there.<\/p>\n

When we arrived at the Moulle\u2019s home, we stepped through the door into the kitchen.<\/p>\n

\"Moulle'sIn the rustic country kitchen, where we prepped and cooked with Jean Pierre, we felt welcome, at home, and like chefs (especially when wearing our aprons).<\/p>\n

Besides the food adventures, there were also the wine trips one of which included a cave tour\u2026<\/p>\n

It\u2019s always nice to be reminded about something familiar when away from home. Seeing Caymus<\/a>, one of the wines we tasted and loved on our first trip to Napa California, at a cooperage in France, was sweet!<\/p>\n
