Paris photographer Sab Will invites you to share his unique view of the city he loves. Paris Set Me Free captures Sab's personal observations, which rub shoulders with photographic analysis in his eclectic and sometimes irreverent 'snapshots' of life in the French capital.

Susie Hollands, Writersusie.png

Born in Scotland but a Francophile since an early age and frequent visitor to Paris over the years, like most people she dreamt of one day living there. Deciding to take a break from work she arrived in Paris in 2003 to work on various art projects and set up a Salon for visiting foreign artists. She originally planned to stay for two months. Upon her arrival, Susie realised there was a gap in the market for home search companies tailored to meet the needs of young, international professionals ready to buy property, so she launched Bonapart Consulting and it was back to work again. Susie still makes time for her art through her Paris collective for foreign artists and blog, I V Y paris and is pleased to bring Prissy Mag readers the What's on in Paris section.

 

 

 

Mitzi Marrelli, Writer

01issue_24_mitzi_bio.jpgAdventurous spirit at heart, Mitzi is oginally from the rock and roll music capital, Austin, Texas, but she has long ago pulled up her Texas roots. With a Bachelor of Science from the University of Texas at Austin, and later a Master's in Architecture in 1991; her wanderlust wouldn't let her rest at home indefinitely. She has pushed her way around the globe from an eleven year sejour in Paris to currently teaching in Asia. A hopeless Francophile, while living in Paris she taught English, wrote and lectured (in France as well as in England and New York) on her favorite subject, the history of architecture. Now she can be found strolling in a picturesque little fishing village on the coast of the East Sea, where she is writing and teaching English to South Korean middle school children.
