Your Parisian BFFs.
We’re Alix & Hugo and we’re newlyweds.
Alix is originally from NYC and had been dreaming of living in Paris since she was 4. She’s lived here for 18 years! (Time really does fly when you’re living your best life.) Hugo is from Picardie, France and has been living in Paris for 10 years. We met in Paris 8 years ago and we have been cooking up a storm ever since! We LOVE to cook, travel and surprise one another! We live in Paris in a townhouse we share with our two yorkies, Violette & ChouChou!
