a Paris apartment

Pa bedroom

Did I mention? My mama is in Paris for month. Originally inspired by her 8 years in Paris we spent a month living there, as you know, in April of this year. Inspired by our month there, my mom is now spending a month there.

We skyped together today and seeing her sitting at the dining/office table,  it reminded me that I never shared photos of the apartment with you. The beams, oh those beams. I loved staring up at them from the bed. And let’s just say that some old Paris apartments were not built for a 6' 5" man, low, very low ceilings. Cozy it was, indeed.

I would say that I miss it, and I do, but I also feel like I will be returning back there soon. Not sure how that will come together, but hey! that’s how it seems to work sometimes. When the time is right, it just works.

What a sweet space. I'm totally inspired. Cozy, indeed.
Well I plan on living near you in the very near future...although its still many months away I know it will come quickly! Can't wait!
the beams do give it a special touch. thanks for sharing.
Very cool. I love those beams.
what a gorgeous little apartment! Those beams just feel like europe!
beautiful space, love the beams too. when I took your class in april, I was in sydney for part of it....I had a thought that it would be really nice to take my family for a month and live in Manly where my grandmother and grandfather met and spent some time. It is a dream but one that would be doable with planning....you never know it could happen sooner than I think....we'll keep that dream on the front burner. thanks for sharing the apartment...
Oh yum! Gosh I miss Paris!
I love it! Is it possible for you to share contact info? I would love to rent it if I go!
Lovely, as muchh as I love colour, I've been craving the peace of white lately.

And after my recent reset in Nova Scotia I am plotting how I can spend a month there next year.
Hi Katherine. Right now it is only rented to family and close personal friends. If for any reason that changes, I will be sure to share it here!
wow gorgeous looking apartment. Is the apartment in Montmartre? Looks like the view we had from our accomodation when we were in Paris.
Cheers

Hi Mary - the apartment is actually in the 8th arrondissement right in the center of the city. I also love Montmartre! :)
