Comments Director of Relais & Châteaux, Annie-Claude Bergonzoli: “By creating these new Routes du Bonheur and combining our 2012 guide, with Brazilian author Paulo Coelho as the Ambassador this year, and the new cook book we hope that these tools will provide valuable resources for guests to enjoy the many unique experiences available at all our member properties. For 2012 our focus is to highlight and promote our region to local travellers, especially families, as well as showcasing the many international possibilities with our member properties.”
