Open Plan Living

I want my new home to be open plan - 

its such a sociable way to live, to share, to be together. 

No longer do I or Mr.L or the kids need places to retreat to for peace and quiet, 

its just me and Mr.L now and I could always retreat to the bedroom!

This is the chalet Mr.L & I shared with 8 others on holiday - 10 more in a matching chalet next door. It was wonderful - & you didn't miss anything even when in the kitchen!

If this was mine I would add more colour & interest, some bright colour on the walls, soft furnishings and bright artwork. It would be so easy to do with a blank canvas like this.

Every evening we ate here or next door and 20 fitted quite comfortably,

once we brought a few extra chairs from next door!

The views from the balconies...breathtaking!

The second highest chalet was ours! 

 Some of the gals!

 & the guys!

 Having a minute!

Who lives open plan now - who would like to?

Majestic Mountains

No words needed.

Except to say - 

"I love them & the ultimate feeling of peace I feel."

 Magnificent Aguile du Midi - I walked here a few years ago...

& Majestic Mont Blanc

In town.....

& the walk home if we stayed for one apres ski too many & missed the bus!!!

So, tell me, what brings you a feeling of peace?

Heading For The Snow

Well, I'm all packed - off to Flaine in four and a half hours - 

must.go.to.bed

A week of fun with 18 other's. We have grown from 12 last year....

in a beautiful chalet together.

Sharing. Everything.

My favourite place to be. Up a mountain, the stillness, the clean air, the lightness.

I feel so free when skiing, chilled, clarity of thought, so so relaxed.

It really does feel like a different World - everything left behind.

I love it. With just Mr.L, Us & the kids or friends together.

So, I have planned some posts & will be instagramming without a doubt! :-)

Back next week - 

please call by!
