About

When I was a child, my father came back from business trips to Hong Kong with beautiful Cheong sam dresses as gifts for my mother and me. My mum would get gold, me silver. What is the root of one's fascination for a culture ? It can be childhood memories like this one. In any case I found myself traveling with my father, then with my brother to the Far East in my late teens, and I chose to do my first internship with Time Magazine in Beijing. After this incredible experience I was both hooked and "marked". China was on my C.V. and I kept being sent back.  This accounts for the fact I spent 14 years working in China in my 30's, married and had my first child there.
I am still fascinated by China. It is a country that provides enough depth to investigate for a lifetime. Thank you China for keeping me so busy !
