This is where I live, but since my work often takes me around the globe, I’m opening my doors to a select few who value charm, thoughtful design, and the unique character of a space that tells its own story. Filled with objects collected from my travels and cozy, inviting details, this apartment offers an atmosphere far removed from the typical impersonal short-term rental.
