The ultimate trip

If money was no object and you could go anywhere in theworld, where would you roam? We asked a poet, a model, apolitician, a chef and a writer to devise their dream travelitineraries. Cheyenne Tozzi, 20, grew up in Sydney's Sutherland Shire.She is amodel and lives in New York. My dream holiday is a firstclass trip to Paris with three of mygirlfriends for a few days of fabulous shopping. I would celebratethe French love for all things classic by staying at the beautifulearly20thcentury Hotel Le Bristol in SaintHonore. We would bookinto the presidential suite, which overlooks the hotel's amazinggardens.

We'd go for the Jo De Mer bikinis, Marc Jacobsruffle skirts, Current/Elliott boyfriend jeans, Chrome Heartshandbags if money is no object, the list goes on! Next stop would be the Four Seasons Hotel George V, on AvenueGeorge V, which is famous for its beauty treatments. Forget Jet Lagincludes reflexology and a tonic aromatherapy massage, and theyeven serve you water from the Alps. My dream trip would not be complete without a visit to Michelin starred chef Alain Ducasse's Plaza Athenee Restaurant onAvenue Montaigne. There, we would order steamed langoustines withIranian osetra caviar, purple artichokes, black truffle zabaglioneand whatever unbelievable desserts pastry chef Frederic Robert (whohas worked with Ducasse for more than 25 years) comes up with. After a visit to the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral and the CentreGeorges Pompidou, we would take a road trip in a hybrid car (weneed to look after our beautiful planet) with surfboards on top, toBiarritz on France's southwest coast. Once there, we would stay inthe luxurious Rosetta Stone American English Hotel du Palais. It's right on the beach and has the most sensational pool thatoverlooks the waves. I spent quite a bit of time in Biarritz with an exboyfriend he surfed while I hung out, shopped, read and ate the mostwonderful food. The 1920s architecture is amazing and the beachesare fantastic. If you can, try to get a spot next to the oystervendor and enjoy a glass of wine with your freshly shucked huitres.Biarritz is such a relaxed and beautiful location and, justquietly, when those French boys speak my heart flutters alittle! Skye Gyngell, mid40s, was born in Sydney and is head chefat Petersham Nurseries Cafe in London and the author of A Year InMy Kitchen and My Favourite Ingredients. I went to San Francisco 30 years ago when I was much younger,but I'd love to go again as there are lots of restaurants I wouldlike to visit predominantly Judy Rogers' Zuni Cafe and Alice Waters' Chez Panisse. Both are led by female chefs with an emphasison local produce, and the roots of their cooking lie in traditionand craftsmanship. The restaurants are convivial; they have acasual and busy feel, but a warm and friendly atmosphere. I have always admired the work of Alice Waters I have all hercookbooks and I met her at Petersham Nurseries Cafe but havenever managed to pay a visit to her restaurant. She encourageslocal farmers to have a commitment to produce. She believes that healthy eating starts with a connection to the land, and has worke dtirelessly in schools and prisons, helping them to create vegetablegardens. There are also many producers I would love to visit.
