The best part of blogging

Without a doubt, the best part of blogging are all the relationships that form along the way. And, relationships without borders. Instead of meeting design colleagues in our own neighborhood or region, we can get to know designers from all over the world. So, I was very excited when I received an email a few weeks ago from Jennifer French of Inside Out Colour and Design that she and her husband and daughter were traveling in the US and going to be on Cape Cod this week.



We had a lovely lunch today as they made their way from Cape Cod up to Maine and it was so nice trading industry talk about how we each run our businesses and the state of business today. Jennifer spent last week taking in the whole NYC scene, a little of which she posted on her Facebook page.

Jennifer was also kind enough to bring me a couple Aussie design magazines, which is always thrilling! Local book stores carry British and French magazines, but rarely the Australian ones, so I'm looking forward to digging into them!


Safe travels Jennifer!! I'll make it Australia some day!
