Provence Explorers

Guides

Amelie Koch has traveled around the world with her bike including Oman, Taiwan and Vietnam, and all across Europe. Lately she’s been training for her first marathon. In Abu Dhabi! Her not-so-secret passion is organizing and planning cycling trips.

Hugh Rodman has been cycling throughout his life, although it took decades to realize that it was way more fun to do with other people. One of the few things he's won in this short life was a cooking competition.

Becky Margulies decided that running 50 miles was too short so this year she’s going for her first 100. Her meditation practice has evolved over several decades at centers across California and India. She loves hiking, embroidery, introducing others to the joys of wild swimming, saunas and her two cats!
