Comment ça va?Today I finally started work. This is my forth day here in Paris but it seems like it has been a long time already. Done quite a lot of walking, settling down at the new apt, unpacking, cleaning, getting groceries, checking out the surrounding area. There are so many supermarché, boulangerie, fruits and légume and other specialty stores. Tonsss of café on the Bonne Nouvelle main street, and my work place is right at the turn of my street! It's only about 3 mins walk, I can actually go back to eat lunch everyday if I want to!
The studio is a beautiful old french style decor building which is so subtle from the outside. I can immediate feel the atmosphere and design philosophy, the spirit and the energy. There is nothing so frentic and the feeling of stress and urgency is somehow non-existence. And in a few days their show is coming up. So this is the French way. I was able to meet with the designer immediately, and I was really surprise at how at ease I feel when I met her. She is kind, elegant and always with a very warm smile. My previous nervousness was gone. Work is quite hands-on, especially towards the last few days of the show. It feels quite surreal to see all the gowns and delicate pieces that is undergoing construction in the workshop, its is definitely extremely inspiring! So many couture details, and I have already learned to do some...
It was around 8:30 when I started walking home. I was quite exhausted so I decided to get myself a bottle of white wine. I started to prefer white wine in France, its so refreshing and especially flavorful.
So therefore I am about to fall asleep with my computer...Bonsoir, à demain.
Good Luck!!! Susanna! everyone miss u!!!!!
