Almost a month back home from our recent Wanderlust adventure, I still can feel the Paris vibe in me. Maybe because out of the 17days we traveled, we stayed the longest in the city of love (btw, watch out for my photo feature soon!). It was such a thrill to be there, to experience the art, food, fashion, landmarks, everything! But I was most thrilled when we were invited by a friend who has been living in Paris for over 10years, for a home cooked meal in her Parisian home which is a literally was just a stone throw away from no less than Champs Elyseés (good thing our hotel was right smack CE too that we just walked it)! I was actually thrilled for three things about this dinner : (1) to get to hear stories of how it is living in Paris (2) to get to see an actual old Parisian apartment with high ceiling+ intricate details (3) And most of all to actually witness someone from home; her life as a talented artist, a wonderful a mom and a loving wife, right smack in the most coveted city in the world!
I will not disclose her full identity yet as I have a grand plan to introduce her and what (art) she does , later on, in series of posts featuring with other (Pinoy) artists. For now, I want you to see her lovely home, which she allowed me to feature — yipee!!! If you love decorating, or anything artsy .. you will love this part quirky, part bohemian, with still a touch of French, space… because I really did……Enjoy !

That’s my H feeling so cozy in a Parisian home!
