Last Updated on 09/03/26 by After spending ten days exploring southern France by car with my husband, I was ready to let someone else do the driving, cooking, and guiding. A weeklong cruise on the Rosa barge on the Garonne Canal was the perfect way to end an extended holiday in southern France. The Canal de Garonne connects to the Canal du Midi in Toulouse. The two canals provide a continuous, controllable waterway from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic Ocean.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Took typing class on a typewriter in high school

How is social media changing news?

It is becoming a primary source for news and is, unfortunately, not always accurate, nor is it held accountable for the content

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

Via email please. However, I only write from personal experience so I need to visit a location in person to write about it.
