​We are excited to share another story in our Breizh Amerika Profiles series, highlighting individuals who forge connections between Brittany and the world.

This time, we meet Corinne Le Bourhis, a Breton who has turned her love for travel into a career while keeping her deep ties to her homeland. From her early days in traditional dance and music to launching Le Bourhis Voyage, a bespoke travel agency, she has crafted a unique journey that spans continents.

Read on to discover our interview with Corinne Le Bourhis, who shares her passion for Brittany, her expat experience, and how she helps others explore the world.


What is your link to Brittany?

I was born and raised in Brittany. I spent my early childhood in Coray with my father's family until I was seven, before moving to Fouesnant, where my mother’s family is from.

Around the age of 13, I became deeply interested in my Breton identity. I joined Le Cercle Celtique Ar Pintiged Foen and danced with them until I turned 18 (I was even Fleur des Pommiers 1999 of Fouesnant! ). At the same time, I was part of the founding group of musicians for Bagad Bro Foen, playing with them until 2003. Unfortunately, love took me away from Brittany, and I had to step away from my passion.

However, Brittany has never left me. I return home every year and reconnect with friends from both Le Cercle and Bagad. This past summer was particularly special, as I had the chance to walk through the streets of Fouesnant for La Fête des Pommiers with my daughter, both of us dressed in traditional costume.
Brittany is, and always will be, my home. 


What is your expat story?

My expat journey began with a move from Lorient to Grenoble. I met my daughter’s father while studying at UBS, and together we relocated to Grenoble for nearly four years. When he finished his studies, he received a job opportunity in the U.S., and we thought,Why not? Let’s go! It was supposed to be a three-year adventure… that was 14 years ago!

I have primarily lived in Arizona, though not always. The beginning was challenging—I wasn’t allowed to work, and I didn’t speak English. I dedicated my first year to learning the language, and as soon as I obtained my work visa, I found a job in tourism. That was the start of my incredible journey in the travel industry, and I fell in love with it instantly.

In 2016, we moved to Singapore, which gave me the amazing opportunity to travel across Southeast Asia for six months (and even meet the Breton community of Singapore!). In 2017, I returned to Phoenix—I had missed the cacti, the cowboys, and, of course, the sunshine! 


Can you tell us more about Le Bourhis Voyage?

Le Bourhis Voyage was born from my passion for creating unique and personalized travel experiences. My journey in the travel industry started in 2012 when I worked for a Destination Management Company (DMC) in the U.S., planning trips for French-speaking travelers. In 2019, I joined an American travel agency to improve my English and help U.S. clients explore the world. That’s when I realized I wanted to offer more than just U.S. trips—I wanted to design global adventures.

After years of experience on both sides of travel planning, I launched my own agency in 2023. Instead of working alone, I joined Largay Travel, a respected host agency, which gives me access to a strong network of advisors and exclusive travel perks through Virtuoso. This allows me to offer my clients VIP benefits, unique experiences, and personalized service they wouldn’t get on their own.

What makes my approach different is my focus on truly customized travel. I don’t just book trips—I listen, advise, and design experiences that match each client’s needs. Whether it’s a family trip, a luxury getaway, or a special celebration, I use my expertise and connections to make it unforgettable.

At Le Bourhis Voyage, my goal is simple: to make travel easy, meaningful, and perfectly tailored for each client.


What do you miss most about Brittany?

What I miss most about Brittany? 
​Crêpes, langoustines, lobster, fest-noz, evenings with friends, bike rides, and the beach—the list could go on forever! I chose to live on the other side of the world, and I’m happy with that, but Brittany is something I miss every day (well, maybe not on rainy days ). I often say that my heart is on the edge of the Atlantic, not sure which way to go.

Thanks to Le Bourhis Voyage, I’m fortunate to be able to work from anywhere. Since the agency’s creation, I’ve been able to spend every summer in Brittany. And since most of my clients travel to Europe during the summer, it’s also great that I’m on the same time zone as them, which really reassures them.

​Brittany will always be home, no matter where I am!
