Annette is a warm host with a deep appreciation for different cultures. She attributes her love of cooking to her mom and love of eating to her dad. A native Canadian, Annette is multilingual, has lived in several continents and has had professional stints in commercial banking and in the science field before discovering her true passion on a trip to Seville…Flamenco. From the moment Annette experienced flamenco, a form of song and dance special to the Andalusia region of Spain, she was hooked. Her newfound love fueled a series of trips to Seville to study flamenco and she ended up opening her own flamenco dance studio in Canada before finally moving to Seville permanently. Now a resident of Seville, Annette teaches English and lives with her boyfriend Jose. Jose hails from Soria, a gem on the eastern end of Castille and León region of Spain. Together the pair enjoys creating dishes inspired by Jose’s hometown in central Spain. Meet your host Annette and her boyfriend Jose at their simple but welcoming home. Enjoy a glass of wine and snack on olives in the kitchen while discussing Annette’s globetrotting past and listening to Annette translate for Jose about life growing up in central Spain. Join your host on the rooftop (weather permitting) or dining table for an authentic Spanish meal of codera a la pastora, sopa castellana, tortilla and alcachofas con salsa. Your meal will conclude with a dessert of torija or leche frito. If you book a cooking experience, join Annette and Jose in their kitchen to learn to cook a meal traditional of the Castille and León region of Spain. Listen to Annette as she translates for Jose. Your hands-on cooking lesson will last about two hours, during which you will learn to cook three dishes from scratch. Note that Annette typically serves dishes of the Castille and León region of Spain, where her partner Jose is from. However if you are interested in trying other dishes from Seville or elsewhere please ask your travel advisor!

In 1985, my aspiration had been fulfilled, I initiated my career in the travel industry as a leisure agent for a local travel agency. Subsequently, I transitioned to America West Airlines, holding the position of a customer service representative, and eventually ascended to become one of American Airlines' International Pursers. During my tenure as an in-flight Purser, I had the privilege of exploring captivating destinations across the globe. Each journey allowed me to deeply engage with the distinct cultures, customs, and traditional cuisine of the diverse countries I visited. I have had the pleasure of embarking on wilderness-filled safaris, savoring exquisite wine with the locals in quaint European villages, trekking through the rice fields of Asia, and marveling at the pristine azure waters of the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
With utmost dedication, I endeavor to provide tailored expertise and knowledge to travelers in devising unparalleled vacations. A primary objective of mine is to create an indelible travel experience exclusively for YOU. Allow me the honor of introducing you to tremendous opportunities which wholeheartedly embrace the culture, customs, and native cuisine of the diverse countries you choose to explore.
