Gilles Malaisé

Born in the historic city of Bourges, half way between the Castle of the Loire valley  and the famous Sancerre vineyard, our publisher's Epicurean instinct is deep rooted in French traditions. Numerous trips and long stays abroad (Hungary, Czech Republic, Thailand...) as a foreign press correspondent for "World News Links", "Jane's Defence Weekly" and "Point de Vue - Images du Monde",  helped Gilles Malaise understand the basic and extra needs of the most distinguished globetrotters.  

Founder of "FIRST CLASS AROUND THE WORLD" (now better known by the web surfers under its less exciting though much more practical URL address "travelfirst.com") in 1995, he keeps on working his best to make our readership satisfied with permanently updated tips. Satisfied and, we expect, also entertained by the presentation of the countries we are visiting for you.  

You have seen that since couple of years we are not only focussing on airlines first and business class tests, or those highly successful palace hotels tests which bring us more than 50,000 access per week ; we are now also publishing some more relaxed reviews of charming hotels (not necessarily "Relais Châteaux" or expensive properties), while we are more and more active in visiting restaurants: from the three star Michelin in Paris, till the friendly bistros in Prague or Rome. 

More than 80% of the hotels, restaurants, airlines, limousines services and tour operators quoted in our magazine have been  tested personally: either by our staff, either by our publisher. The rest of the tips come from our readership and "honourable correspondents". 

Gilles Malaise is also the author of travel books, published in French language only ("Carnets de voyages": Budapest, Hungary, Thailand, Romania... Editions du Dauphin, Paris). 

He and his staff warmly welcome with the same hightest interest claims, remarks or suggestions.
