Two leading Adelaide relationship therapists, Giusi Silvestri and Gordon Wagner, this week team up to deliver an innovative program in which couples can learn about the Psychology of Love.

As trained and experienced relationship experts, Giusi and Gordon will share insights, successful strategies and practical steps they have learned from helping thousands of South Australian couples enhance or regain love in their relationships.

Giusi and Gordon have blended the benefits of their decades of clinical experience to design this three-hour workshop for couples.  It is described as “a powerful experience for participants offering the possibility of more balanced love, a deeper understanding of each other’s needs and a greater sense of fulfillment”.

Quercy Chateau June 2011With Bastille Day looming, French getaway travel specialist Slow Tours reveals it is already planning travel schedules for 2012, with news that its September-October trips are almost booked out already.

Run by former IT entrepreneur Carol Haslam, Slow Tours is set up for travellers who want to take time to smell the roses and sample local cuisine as they travel through regional areas of France.

Carol said she was getting 2012 tour planning under way as September/October tours were almost booked out. “If you have a group of six or eight people which wants to visit a special region, write to us now, so we can make our plans with your dates in mind,” she said.

“The reason people sign up for our trips is because we’re not a travel agency. We organise authentic French holidays where you can truly immerse yourself in the sights, tastes and culture of quaint local villages.”

Already this year, Slow Tours has taken two trips to the Bordeaux region. One even included five days of Reunion Island, en route from Australia to France, travelling by French airline Air Austral.
