Claudine and I met through a friend of Jim’s.  She came very highly recommended for our upcoming trip to France.  Jim loves a schedule.  We knew she would help us to see Paris efficiently.  We did not know that she would become our friend.  Her knowledge is bottomless.  And she gives interesting facts not just the ones everyone else knows.  She can show you parts of “must see” stops that are hidden gems.  For instance, I am so glad that I got to see the Mona Lisa.  She is stunning.  However, the pieces commissioned by Marie de Medici about herself are beautiful and entertaining and there was no one else in the gallery.  Not to mention that you get to skip the line at the Louvre because Claudine has a member pass.  And yes, she is distantly related to that Hemingway.

Claudine Hemingway’s lifelong passion for Paris was sparked by her grandparents’ first trip to the city in the spring of 1972. Her grandfather, an avid explorer and photographer, documented his adventures in Paris with meticulous notes and countless photos.  Her grandfather's stories and photos of Notre Dame, Napoleon, and Parisian life deeply influenced Claudine. This legacy of exploration and appreciation was passed down to Claudine, shaping her dreams and aspirations. Today, Claudine calls Paris her permanent home. Each step in Paris feels like walking alongside him, bridging past and present.
