Sarlat-la-Canéda - a very popular town in the Périgord Noir. Because modern history has largely passed it by, Sarlat has remained preserved and one of the towns most representative of 14th century France. The centre of the old town consists of impeccably restored stone buildings, with 77 protected monuments it's on the list of France's Tentative List for future nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Largely car-free with lots of narrow ancient streets and small stores, perfect for city wandering and to discover.

Josephine Baker (3 June 1906 - 12 April 1975) - a French-American dancer, singer, actress, civil rights activist, French Resistance member and the world's first black female superstar. For some time, Baker lived with her adopted children, an enormous staff and her fourth husband Jo Bouillon in Château-des-Milandes, enjoyed the estate garden and park along the river Dordogne. For years a luxurious life but she lost the castle in 1968 to unpaid debts. Today it's almost unreal to find at Château-des-Milandes so many authentic traces of her, still visible, just like she's still there.

Pantheon Paris (mausoleum of France) - after her death she was the only American-born woman to receive full French military honours at her funeral, Baker was interred at Monaco's Cimetière de Monaco. In 2021, nearly half a century after her death, President Emmanuel Macron granted her to be honoured at the Pantheon Paris, mausoleum of France, this in recognition of the fact that Josephine Baker's "whole life was dedicated to the twin quest for liberty and justice ". She's the first black woman who received this highest honour in France, and sixth of woman, now among "Les Grands Hommes" of France. Also the first entertainer immortalized at the Pantheon alongside revered historical figures like Victor Hugo, Emile Zola and Marie Curie.
