Tasty

That is how i feel about our time in Paris. March was cold and gray, we just arrived, exhausted after weeks of preparation, and i felt deeply tired, cold and homesick. April and May were time for us to go trough the loss of our little lilo. June started, we left for a much needed… Continue reading Tasty

Play and fun

Some days are easier, more light filled than others. Some days, i just crash and let tears poor over me. It is hard to let C. see me like this, vulnerable and in distress. In the past, if i did not feel good, i just retreated in my flat (we had 2 apartments), so i… Continue reading Play and fun

Un court message pour vous remercier de tout les commentaires sur mon dernier billet, vos courriels et messages laissés ici m’aident énormément. Je fais des démarches pour aider mon corps à retrouver son équilibre, son harmonie. Des anti-douleur prescrit par ma doc, des scéances de kiné 2 fois la semaine, tests sanguins pour être certaine… Continue reading Suite

3 months

3 months that we are here, and, as i had fantasized for the last 2 years, i celebrated my 35th birthday in Paris, and it was, hm, the least happiest birthday of all, can you believe that? Me and C are learning so much here. So much about what we want our life to be… Continue reading 3 months

Je suis silencieuse, car ici c’est le deuil. Mon amour de chat, Monsieur li, lilo, nous a quitté il y a 3 semaines. Si vous êtes amoureux des animaux, vous comprendrez peut-être ma peine. Le vide laissé par la perte de ce compagnon fidèle et aimant est immense. Après 3 semaines, mes larmes coulent encore… Continue reading 3 semaines

Paris week 7

Spring finally made it to Paris! Right now, my daily stroll brings me to the jardin du Luxembourg, 10 minutes from our flat, but nowhere to go on warm sunny day like yesterday if you are a little agoraphobic — people almost fight for a chair at the sun. Everywhere i go, people seem to… Continue reading Paris week 7

Paris week 6

I am still discovering my arrondissement, even if there are about 1000 tourist attractions in this city, my daily activity is to watch/capture the mundane — i love it.

Paris views

As you might have already figured, it’s not here that you will find some touristic or party pictures. You can head on my flickr account for some eiffel tower shots tho.

Week 5

As we are on our way to week 6 in Paris, i am still in between stirring moods. One of our cat started to feel sick a week ago, making me feel rather miserable after not sleeping well for the last 7 days, always on the emergency mode to detect anything abnormal from our two… Continue reading Week 5

Easter

Hope you are having a nice holiday! Now, let me take you for a walk in my hood! Paris is gray and cold right now, nothing too inviting… Spotting neon advertising is nice for such gray weather. While waiting for the sun, resting at home, taiking walks and eating good food is all i need.

Arriver à Paris. S’y déposer pour quelques mois, juste pour voir si un tel mouvement peut créer l’excitation dans ma vie. Réaliser un tel rêve devrait, après tout, être source de joie, et combler de bonheur l’aventurière qui a décidé en tout premier lieu d’essayer, tâter le terrain, par pure curiosité, juste pour voir. Après… Continue reading 4 semaines

Mirror

Monsieur li reflecting, and me, messy hair day, wearing my new cowl – obviously in worries with all these lines on my forehead – feeling better after a walk!

Looks

My messy work table. After 3 weeks, i can finally sit and feel in my creative bubble (see all notes when clicking on the picture). Second picture is me back from the market.

Hello Paris!

There is so much to write, it’s a little overwhelming. Just a few sentences would not do justice to all of what’s happening in one’s mind when moving abroad (and when abroad means Paris). My eyes can talk as well, so for now, just a few clichés should do!

Cowls

Many of you will be surprised by this new addition to my line of products. Even i could not predict i would some day be into creating handmade fashion accessories, but this new project feels so good to put out in the world, because i always loved and was into music, style and fashion since… Continue reading Cowls

Sunshine

It’s at this time of the year that i start to really miss the colors of summer – the light, the warmth, the fresh green color of the grass and trees.

Winter

A short winter holiday. Cold, white, windy, sunny, blue sky.

Free shipping on my postcards

Until feb. 26th, or until supplies last, all my postcards are sent free of shipping charges in north america. Get yours via etsy or supermarket, or message me with the content of the titles you wish to order!

Paris

The move is on its way, we are leaving for Paris in a few weeks. After the tornado of events of the last month (xmas, new year parties, having visitors from nyc and Chris’s parents, then getting married), my mind started wondering about the changes to come, and why i wanted these changes in the… Continue reading Paris

New year

I want to get my back fit again so i can stretch and bite my toes, i want to travel and experience happiness, joy and freedom, i want this year to be great for myself and the ones i love. Happy belated new year to you!

Herboristerie 101

Pour ceux d’entre vous qui sont aussi emballés que moi par l’herboristerie, j’ai déniché des vidéos où l’on peut voir les gens de La Clef des Champs, un producteur local de thés et tisanes à bases de plantes médicinales.

Choices

This picture is a favorite on flickr (19 people fav’it). We need to remember that no situation will last forever – that with thought and actions, any situation could be turned upside down and disappear into something else. 2009 just has some days left, but even, it’s not over. You’ve got the choices, and the… Continue reading Choices

What i am into

– Neck warmer by Ozetta, i might order a second one soon. – Mika, ooooohhh pop music, how i love you. – Preparing our moving to Europe, Paris should be the place. – Evenings at home, with dim lights, being in the moment. – My new project, Wisdom for the brave, which will be on… Continue reading What i am into
