    We just bought a house in Provence

    23/02/2026 | 23 mins.
    We bought a house in the charming Provence town of l'Isle sur la Sorgue!

    That's right: the Pearl of Provence, the Venice of the South, the same place we recorded the Christmas episode last year. And while we'll still live in Paris and do business as usual, this exciting news will surely add a new scent of lavender to everything we do.
    So: Why did we buy this house? How? What next? Are we leaving Paris? (no). We answer all these questions and more in this week's episode. 
    I'll share pics and videos along the way, be sure you're following our social media channels.

    Checking in from Paris: Sophie, schools, and one wild launch

    02/02/2026 | 14 mins.
    Last week we introduced you to Sophie, the newest character in our world of children's books. 
    Today, we're checking in - with a huge thank you - halfway through the Kickstarter campaign. 
    As you may have seen, we hit the target in 15 minutes. Now, as the campaign continues, we're donating books to local schools, hosting Online Salons, and giving you two last chances to be in the book... if you're quick.
    The project will end on Friday February 6th. You can get your own copy here.
    Thanks to all who've contributed so far - merci mille fois.

    Sophie in Paris: Our new children's book is ready

    26/01/2026 | 26 mins.
    Here she is: Sophie in Paris.
    Meet Sophie, the newest character in our world of children's books. 
    She's a clever little girl who lives in a tiny attic by the Eiffel Tower. And when a problem appears on the tower itself, Sophie takes it upon herself to save the day.
    Sophie is a brave, curious, capable girl who reminds us that even the biggest problems can be solved by one person with the courage to try.
    And in this episode of the podcast, Lina and I describe how we made the book, how you can get it, and how (if you're quick), you can get your name on the Eiffel Tower.
    The project will launch on Kickstart on Jan 30. You can follow the pre-launch page here and be the first in line.
