As summer finally arrives here in France, not everyone has space to enjoy open fields and never ending gardens. In Paris, small, private, secret even, terraces come into their own at this season. A space to enjoy intimate dinners with friends, to work alone, to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine before affronting the busy city. A space to clad in green, to enjoy the blue roofs all around, to ...... feel privileged.

ReplyDeletebon weekend mon amie,

Would love to be hanging out on one of these patios today. 105 heat index in Texas today.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and privileged indeed :) I thin the geraniums are a must as well. Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThey do look inviting, don't they? I would love to create that type of feeling on our yet-to-be built deck.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely little spaces. I just love Paris. It has just got to be one of the most elegant and romantic cities of all. Meanwhile, I am enjoying my last day in San diego. The flowers that grow here can barely be coaxed under glass in the UK!

Just found you..... What a lovely home you have with such beautiful views. I wish I had adopted France many years ago, late adoption makes learning French very difficult:( Diane
ReplyDeleteI could kill for a terrace in Paris and view on the Eiffel Tower...(not really kill anyway....maybe that's why I will never have a terrace in Paris???) Great view, maybe I could just rent one someday.... Bon weekend, mon amie xx
