Springtime SURPRISES! Cycling Loire Valley CASTLES with E-Bikes & Gifts from LALANDE! 🏰 💖

We cycle the incredible Loire Valley Castles route & are showered with gifts from friends @TheChateauDiaries , Hitway E-Bikes, and others. From the Chateau de Chambord to Chateau de Cheverny, we take you on a glorious ride. I then visit Stephanie & Philip at the Chateau de Lalande where I receive some special gifts for myself and our chateau. Simon gets to work in our chateau garden, and I indulge my love of 18th-century Sevres white biscuit porcelain and tablescapes. Will friends and family add to my porcelain collection this week? And we can't forget...glorious new Art Nouveau antique jewelry on the chateau-love.com website! #chateaudiy #chateaurenovation #chateaulife #antiquejewellery #vintagejewelry SHOP Chateau-Inspired Art, Gifts, Original Photographs, Bags, and Antique & Vintage Jewelry: www.chateau-love.com Shop beautiful kitchen gifts from the Chateau de Lalande at: www.jarvisjanssen.com Shop fantastic E-Bikes at: www.hitway.eu or on AMAZON https://www.amazon.com/s?k=hitway+electric&hvadid=694504627600&hvdev=c&hvexpln=67&hvlocphy=9011784&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=12470898392281960967--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=12470898392281960967&hvtargid=kwd-1591233682696&hydadcr=2396_13459547&mcid=094b063748ee3beebc5c2915ad423562&tag=googhydr-20&ref=pd_sl_72il5k7myv_e_p67 ABOUT US: Bonjour! I’m Vivienne, an artist, designer, antique & vintage jewelry dealer, and also the châtelaine of a small 19th century neo-Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France, which I share with my delightful husband, Simon, our daughter, and —whenever possible— lovely friends and family. This is not our first chateau! 25 years ago, we bought a much larger castle nearby, which we loved with all our hearts. However, after 2 decades, many happy memories, countless renovations, and several small fortunes later, we made the very difficult, empty-nesting decision to downsize. With great luck and perseverance, we found our current petit château, which we are now decorating and updating with love, humour, comfort, and —of course— antiques and art! We adore France and its many unique facets: its people, culture, landscapes, wine, food, art, and history. We also love being surrounded by châteaux, both public and private, which we can explore together! After 20 years here, we have learned many things about living in France, renovating châteaux, and appreciating the extraordinary riches surrounding us. We originally decided to make these videos as a way to share our lives with our loved ones worldwide during the pandemic lockdowns. However, we soon realised that many others are at home alone, and it is our privilege to open our home to you, our new friends. We hope you will join us on our adventures in this exceptional location, and we look forward to sharing a little Château Love!
