People who do, who jump in, who carry that spark of energy to make things happen. In my hotel world, that spirit is essential – it always takes a big heart and just the right dose of creative improvisation.

Just look at Dee’s cover photo with the print sheets of her new book – how brilliant to turn those giant paper sheets into a dress! Last Saturday, I had the joy of meeting this incredible woman, who, as she says, “shows her underwear every day.” On top of that, I was honored to meet wonderful women – so many topics surfaced in such a short time, and our views were so beautifully likeminded.

Even with the rain (surely bringing extra luck to the new book!) there was endless laughter and storytelling. I couldn’t resist capturing a few snapshots and snippets of conversation. Because yes – our days are always full, but nothing replaces REAL human connection in REAL life – or even better: women’s time.

Merci, Daniella @inbarandco, for the little Swarovski stone that already gave me this „special kind of assistance“ today. And thank you, Dayenne @dayennebeccker, for your incredible smile and all the “fuel” you carry within to recharge others. I hope we’ll all stay “in contact” in one way or another.

À bientôt,
