The service

Story telling

French and British heritage

Vincent Alloing loves Southern England, and with a passion for history and legends, he spends several months a year in Glastonbury, Somerset. When he is in Somerset, he takes the opportunity to present to his audience (whether individuals, groups of friends or families) subjects relating to the history, to the heritage of England and France in a nice and entertaining atmosphere, favoured by the use of a few accessoires, music, illustrations and even, when the subject allows, historical costumes, not to mention quotes and short stories.

 

With my interest for food and wine, and for the history of the art of the table (gastronomy), I have specialized in these subjects, and in tother topics often associated with France, but my selection is made, so that people find in the content a true echo in their life in Britain.

 

Take the magic of history home!

 

You have a special connection to France (and/or Germany), you often travel to France (whether private or on business) or you simply have the same fascination and curiosity for your neighbour country (as I feel towards England)? Then these sessions should give you satisfaction and joy.

If you are looking for new ideas to suprise your guests at lunch or dinner, if you are looking for a moment of cultural entertainment during a party, or simply enjoy to hear the marvellous stories,, which make up the History of our nations, my sessions could be the appropriate answer.

 

I am covering in particular the area: Wells, Glastonbury, but please contact me should you need my services for Bristol/ Yeovil / Bath (for sessions longer than 1 hour)
