About Me


My son, Dominic
"Mother and Child" by Picasso
I must have dreamed him into life...
I love...
everlasting friendships, magic spells, ideas, daydreams that become real, summer days that never end, secret keepers, happy drinkers, looking into beautiful eyes, innocent demons, honest cowards, deep conversations, arguments that enlighten the mind, cheerful luggage, risk takers, smelling the pages of old books, tragic operas, loving creatures, feather pillows, infinite sadness, memories, silences that say more than words, nostalgia, waking up to windy sunny days, plumeria bubble baths, cinnamon lattes, creative energy that will not leave the heart, funny drama, tensions and frictions, guys on motorcycles, lilies, insane geniuses, flowers, strong handshakes, random acts of kindness, Turkish tea,daydreaming that Africa is the perfect place, Chanel perfume with stories behind it, ladies that make history, feeding fat babies, painless injections, female spiders, jumping puppies, long flights when everyone sleeps…
