Bonjour friends! I’m Salem, and I'm the founder of G&G. Originally from Charlottesville, Virginia, and currently living here, I graduated with a Business degree from The College of William & Mary in 2015 and have a background working in advertising. Inspired by a lifetime of travel, a love for all things creative, and a desire to create my own business, I quit the corporate world in 2021 to do my own thing! My aim for Gallivant and Gather is to combine that love for travel, connection and curating thoughtful experiences through our luxury women’s retreats. Over the last 3+ years, I have hosted 13 Retreats with G&G, bringing 80+ women to Provence, and I can honestly say it is the most rewarding thing I have ever done! I’m so excited to continue to host these retreats (adding new locations soon!) and share my adventures, insight and inspiration in travel & entrepreneurship along the way!
