    You had me crying and (sorry) laughing. I'm grateful for your retelling. I know it will help someone out there going through similar situations. But how you just take charge and dont let the tour guide steal your vacation is strength with in. I live to see strength with in come out!❤

I have told so many people about your channel and they all LOVE how you tell a story and play music intertwined with whatever piece you are working on. You have a gift for this. Nobody else I follow had been able to pull it off. There is not one person who would start watching one of your videos and not stay with it until the end. And only you have this ability to hold someone’s interest with no boring parts!Please put them up as often as you can. They are so unbelievably good!!

  • @sadiejosiemom

    The dresser is beautiful - though the white one you sold was my favorite!! That was the trip from hell. I'm glad Zeb was there because he seems like nothing ruffles him. I've not been lucky enough to go on many vacations but many years ago (20+) my late husband's work sent him to Atlanta for training and paid for me to go too. We live in California and our flight to SF got delayed because of rain and were rerouted to LAX which caused us to miss our connection to Atlanta. So by the time we got there it was midnight and everything was closed. The car rental shops were closed and our luggage was lost or delayed. Luckily, his boss was already there and he had to come and pick us up. We get to the hotel and they had given our room away!! So they took us to another hotel across the way for one night and then we were going to go back to the original hotel the next day. That is I was supposed to do all of it. I don't think we went to bed until 3 or 4 am. Hubs had to be at class early. So he went and got a rental car and dropped it off for me. I think I went back to sleep. When I got up I was so disoriented. I called to the front desk to pick up our luggage. When I opened the door for him I realized we were on the first floor - that's how out of it I was!! Once checked out I had to find the car. I didn't know the make or anything about the car - I'm sure he told me but - I think I was jet lagged our something. Anyway - I finally found it and made my way over to the first hotel and got us all settled in. This was before we had cell phones. I managed to do some sight-seeing by myself while he was in training and managed to make it back to the hotel without GPS!! The rest of the trip was fun but getting there was a doozy!!

    UGH....Deb I love love love your talent & creative ideas but watching these videos with all the things that went wrong really puts a damper on my enjoyment of your delightful imagination. Unexpected surprises (good or bad) is all part of the travel adventure, you just have to go with it and make the best of a crappy situation. As a watcher of your videos, I'd appreciate less of the "woe is me" aspect & more of what went great, what gave you inspiration. There are always kinks in even the best laid plans but I can sit & reflect on my own life for that, I come to your channel to be uplifted & inspired. Please consider lifting up your viewers instead of bringing us down. With love.

    I had watched Diane from the Paint Factory's video, about this same topic. ( trip to France with same tour guide, that went horribly wrong). As i was listening to your story, i realized that this is the SAME person that Diane had referred to. The arrogance of this woman, the pure unadulterated arrogance, is shocking. Completely irresponsible on her part. Did she not see the "once in a lifetime" opportunity that was laid at her feet? She was gifted with a group of You Tube influencers with over 100,000 subscribers each. She could had pulled out all the stops and created a truly epic experience. She could have survived for years off of the revenue, from subsequent tours, made on you and your traveling companions recommendations. Remember the fairy tale about the goose that laid the golden eggs? this woman, killed her golden goose. Glad you are back stateside. I am so happy that no one got hurt or injured as a result of this woman's negligence.

    I have been blessed to have gone on several trips outside the U.S. with a REAL tour guide. I can see SO MANY ways your "guide" failed your group. Its really despicable what she is doing to SCAM unsuspecting tourists. I'm SO glad that you were able to see what was happening and salvage a bit of your time in Paris. I'm so glad you're ALL back home safely.

The sad part is that, we too, only had one day to see France (and that was only because it was the day AFTER the tour ended). Thank you, Debi for posting this and putting a spotlight on scam businesses.

    Miss. Debbie, the way you tell a story is so amazing I feel like I am there watching as it unfolds, it’s so vivid and full of emotion! I am wondering after the nightmare you and your friends endured with that awful scammer do you think you may go back to France? Knowing what you know now having been through such an awful situation I’m sure you gained a good bit of knowledge on the do’s and do not’s when planning and taking a trip to France... P.S. I must say Bravo to you and your group for standing up for yourselves and at least getting some enjoyment out of the trip, that woman was never in it for her clientele only for herself so Bravo for not letting her push you into the background!!

    I absolutely love your ability to tell a story. I think your group of travellers should run a Go-Fund-Me campaign so that you can all go back to France and re-do the trip your own way... (I love your choice of music by the way)

    No way to cram Paris into one day! Montmartre high up in Paris is where the great artists painted and lived! It takes a day! Sad y’all didn’t get to see it. It’s awesome!

    I loved the story. We did have a vacation in Sedona at an airb&b that was not fun. The home looked great in the outside photos on line, like a big 3 story home, but in reality the outside was all false and inside was a 2 story small A frame cabin. Most of the time is was cold and the thermostat did nothing because the heat was not connected to our unit, but to a bottom floor storage which was not part of our rental. There were no extra blankets in our rooms and I had to sleep in my sweatshirt with the hood up. I had brought a small down throw with me and I also used the throw off the sofa. The last few days of our vac it was hot and there were only window AC in the upstairs bedrooms and no AC at all in the downstairs. I ended up getting very sick for a month after this trip. This sound like nothing compared to your trip. We use to go to Sedona every year, but this kind of ended it for us. I didn't leave a negative review of this place, I left no review at all.

    Lesson from your story is: if a unreliable person is showing, you can't trust them, don't designate them big thing like showing you where to turn in airport, otherwise they have huge power over you! Sending love from Chicago.
