Cross cultures

Thoughts of a twentysomething, French-born Chinese girl currently living in Tokyo, studying civil and structural engineering, quite fond of architecture on the one hand, and somehow tech-savvy and web-addict on the other hand.

Two things I like

If I had to choose only a few things that I would like to accomplish in life, I’d say: build beautiful living places and run delicious, cosy restaurants with a lovely staff.

The first thing is related to my deep wish to offer people a nice place to live in. It’s not only the house: it’s also the urban organisation around. And, in a way, a lifestyle.

The second one derives from my love of food and my childhood spent in a restaurant. I also love the concept of terrasses in Paris, but more often than not the food and decor is forgettable and the service is awful. And there’s no transparency about the cuisine or the source of the food.

Eating out at the restaurant, with friends, on a terrasse, in a beautiful city: might be a bit snob, but that can’t be compared to izakayas.
