My name is Tricia, and I live in Paris. I started PatriciaParisienne in 2012 to document and highlight the things that inspire me in the City of Lights. A California girl, I never cease to be amazed by the wonders of this incredible historic city. I love discovering new places and sharing the beauty of this city with you all.
You can usually find me zipping around the city with my Cath Kidston-clad iPhone in hand, snapping photos of the marvels in this city, and a heavy red Longchamp bag on my shoulder.
I believe:
- a home should always have fresh flowers, chilled champagne, and something sweet to share.
- there is no such thing as too much stationary or too many pens.
- you can always make time for a coffee or a glass of champagne with a friend.
- one should always carry a notebook to jot down ideas in.
- dance parties and singing make everything better.
- a smile and kindness go a long way.
- in traveling, all the time.
I hope you enjoy the adventures and discoveries you may find on this blog. Thank you for reading!

Dear Tricia,
My name is Joyce and I work for ExpatFinder.com.
ExpatFinder.com is a free one stop website for people preparing to move or working and living overseas. We provide a myriad of services for expatriates and we have over 2,000 articles to help and support the people moving around the world and we are now creating an interview section to help the expats with real life experiences!
We quite enjoy your blog about living in Paris, it is very interesting and informative. Would it be possible to interview you to further share some of your tips and feature some of your first hand experience as an Expat and your interview will be published on our Expat Interview section as a guide for our expat readers. The questions are mainly about the day to day lifestyle of an expat. If it would be possible, could you also send some photographs that we can use?
Of course, if you accept, we can add a link to your blog or some of your website.
The questions are enclosed, feel free to respond freely. You can return the doc with your answers if you accept this invitation.
Thanks in advance and do let me know if you prefer other means to conduct this interview and we would be happy to accommodate your terms.
Best regards,
Joyce
