Patrick Thevenard has always been interested in customer service and travel. The French entrepreneur settled in Quebec in the 1990s and in 2006, opened Gîte Atmosphère B & B, a bed and breakfast located at 1933 Panet Street in Montreal. "Opening a bed and breakfast was a good way for me to work with people and travel while staying at home," explains the owner.
Before opening the B & B, Patrick worked in the IT field. After purchasing a home on Panet Street, he saw a golden opportunity to change careers and dedicate himself to a business where he could meet more people. This new direction would also allow him to achieve a dream he had cherished for a long time: to work while staying at home.
