It’s All Maya!

Wishing everyone a magical Christmas this year!
Maya Muses: We won’t be having a white Christmas, not like last year, but at least the photos show how truly spectacular a white Christmas can be.

This is the first Christmas Patrick and I will spend in our apartment since returning to Paris.  In 2009 we packed up all our things and shipped them back to France, so that year we spent Christmas at my mom’s house in Pittsburgh.  Wonderful memories with Katarina, mom, and the rest of the family playing […]

There’s so much to be thankful for this year!  And once again we will not be having the usual turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie, etc. for Thanksgiving!  What we’ll miss most of all, however, is being with loved ones and sharing a meal together which is really what makes this holiday so special.

Instead, Patrick and I […]

Chilean miner after being rescued.
I was watching the Chilean miners being rescued live on the internet this morning!  Incredible images that are amazing and emotional to watch showing the miners 2300 ft. below and the work that was done to rescue the 33 men trapped since the beginning of August!  I think everyone in Camp […]

This past week for four days at the Hôtel de Ville there was a big event for making people aware of becoming a donor.

Unlike in the US where you can put whether you want to donate your organs on your driver’s license, here in France it’s a bit more complicated, but with the help of […]
