When Ursula and Antoine created VIVRE, they set out to redefine experiential travel, where boldness and reassurance coexist, and where each journey becomes a catalyst for vitality, togetherness, and continuity.
VIVRE was born to occupy that untouched frontier where journeys give us the chance to be jolted awake by awe. The chance to be stretched by extremes. The chance to return not just rested but changed.
VIVRE creates rare, restorative journeys for couples, families, chosen families, entrepreneurs, and executives who seek more than indulgence.
Every journey is crafted with a balance of intensity and recovery, inclusivity across appetites, and scenes designed to endure as stories worth retelling.
We design travel that surpasses conventional luxury, blending awe with renewal so people return more alive, and more alive together.
This is the promise VIVRE lives by.
And fulfilling it requires more than comfort or spectacle.
It demands a new standard.
Ursula and Antoine's lives have always been defined by movement, discovery, and a deep reverence for the world's many cultures. They believe that travel is a catalyst for emotional wealth, and that true luxury is not measured by what we acquire, but by how profoundly an experience can move us.
"True luxury is not measured by what we acquire, but by how profoundly an experience can move us."
Married and parents to three children (including twins), Ursula and Antoine are French-American nationals with authentically nomadic roots. Raised across seven countries on three continents, they carry the curiosity, cultural fluency, and open-hearted perspective of true global citizens, an outlook that has shaped the way they explore the world as a family.
Fluent in four languages, they spent over two decades building successful international careers in finance, technology, data science, and consulting, living between Paris, Geneva, New York, and Silicon Valley. After launching a high-end personal training and Pilates studio near Paris, they felt called to bring together their skills, passions, and worldview into something more personal: redefining the meaning of luxury travel.
A former elite triathlete and ultra-trail runner, Antoine is naturally drawn to creating journeys that inspire awe and elevate the senses. Ursula, guided by her instinct for warmth, inclusion, and cultural depth, designs experiences that feel both meaningful and deeply held.
Together, Ursula and Antoine ensure that every VIVRE journey is crafted to awaken, to restore, and to stay with you long after you return home.
