At Home and in Paris

“There are only two places in the world where we can live happy: at home and in Paris.”

“At home and in Paris” — I love my home here in Delafield, Wisconsin. Yet I am most happy when I am able to visit Paris — to speak French, to take photos, and to enjoy the joie de vivre and then to return home inspired.

When I boarded a plane at CDG to return to home in October 2019, I had no idea that it would be nearly three and a half years before I would return to Pais again. Exactly two weeks after what would have been my annual birthday trip at the end of February 2020, but that I postponed in favor of an extended spring break and promise of the iconic April in Paris, the world locked down.

So you can imagine how excited I am to return to my beloved city six months from now and to be staying in this adorable Paris Perfect apartment in the Gros Caillou neighborhood of the 7th arrondissement where our most famous neighbor will be Madame Eiffel herself. Image the sparkles just outside the windows.
