David

David Rosslyn-Smith having spent time living on the Côte d’Azur has often been labelled as ‘Mr France’ based upon his experiences in this inspirational and diverse country.His knowledge has been refined by the fact that he spent 10 years selling Chateaux, Belle Demeures and Vineyards across France. Entertaining his clients and friends also gave David the opportunity to visit personally many Michelin starred restaurants, hotels and Relais Chateaux throughout France.By designing informationfrance.com, it became clear that in order to faciliate navigation, the site should be built upon the infrastructure of France, ie by Region, Department and Town. There are now 13 Regions and 93 Departments all of which have a number which appears in the postcodes and the number plates of cars.We hope that you enjoy our website and please email us if you have any questions or suggestions about France – david@informationfrance.com
