Entre Nous - book about French Lifestyle


My father was fascinated by French culture. He learned French language, and had a plan to move to France; but he met my mother and fell in love. So he get married and settled in "Paris van Java (Bandung)" instead.

Well I shared his sentiment about French culture. I am curious on how the French can be famous for their
aesthetic taste.

In this book, Entre Nous, the author tried to explain the difference between American and French culture. One thing that really stick to my mind is that the French concern more about quality rather quantity, so usually they have less things but in better quality. This applies to food, fashion, and home. I think this lifestyle is good, especially when we live in a city where living space is expensive.

Stranger in Strange land











I love this photograph that I saw in Vogue. Even the title is inspiring. In a way it is philosophical.
