Danielle Overton Chambers was born in London but moved to Saint Malo as a small child to live with her great-grandparents and after a life around the world she has returned to her favourite place.
Saint Malo has fascinating history from the 1950s post war to the pirates of the 15th-18th centuries and even earlier with monks and religious living a hermits life there in the 6th century, before they decided to build a cathedral!
From a medieval cathedral town, Saint Malo became a very rich port as the home of trade for hundreds of years, profiting especially from the opening up of the New World.
Chatting to my friend Danielle was fascinating as she is so knowledgeable about the history as well as what to do in Saint Malo right now. I will be returning in August and I'm so looking forward to the amazing seafood, the beautiful stone village, the beautiful welcoming people and the tourist stuff to do!
