Favorite discovery
that I can actually take an ok photograph...I stumbled upon this by accident and haven't been able to stop since. My camera has become an appendage.
Where do you go to escape?
I take walks through my neighborhood, completely alone, with my camera.
Who is your favorite local artist? And why?
Hadley Hutton...her work strikes something deep within me...I often think of her pieces when I tinker with my photos...she is such a huge inspiration...I would love to meet her one day!
What is/are your favorite local shop(s)?
This is an easy one...Noun: a person's place for things. I can't stop posting about this place. It has been and currently is a spot look to for ideas for my own home...Stephanie is a little pixie genius...
Best kept local secret this is a tough one..I am pretty sure it is not a secret to many people..but for me it would have to be Pix Patisserie...
yummy, yummy pastries and drinks...all while in a dreamy Amelie-like setting.
An ideal spot to linger over lunch
Right now that would have to be Petite Provence or St. Honore...oh goodness, everyplace I mention features the most lovely french pastries...this really says so much about me.
When visiting Portland, don't miss...
anything outdoor related. Portland's parks and outdoor spaces, to me, are unparalleled.
If you had an opportunity to live anywhere else in the world, where would we find you?
This is a tough one...As far as cities go I think I would choose London. However Lermoos, a small village in Austria, may beat out any big city for me.
I visited this magical place a few years back and cannot get it off my mind. As far as the US goes, I think Portland is it for me.
What's your motto? breathe...in good times and bad, just take time to breathe and be in the moment.
Oh, thank you Mrs. French for stopping by and sharing your colorful, beautiful corner of the world with us!!!
