Leah Lane

After 25 years documenting complex systems as a technical writer in Louisville, Leah moved her family to Marseille when her husband received a teaching opportunity at Aix-Marseille University. What began as documentation of their adjustment to French life for American relatives evolved into a popular blog when her detailed guides to hidden botanical gardens and speakeasy-style cafés gained traction among travelers seeking authentic experiences. Now, with her daughter in university, Leah balances family adventures with solo exploration, using her technical writing skills to create meticulously researched guides to overlooked historical sites and vintage treasures across Europe.
