Bonjour et Bienvenue…

I am Roniece Dawson-Bruce!

Originally from Invercargill, New Zealand but lived for most of my adult life in Sydney, Australia. I lead a normal life… (some would say I lead a charmed life!) I have a beautiful son Marc who is the love of my life and who also shares my passion for traveling.

My passions are all things French! 
 
I look forward to my time in Paris each year, usually spending the month of September renting my charming little studio in the Quartier Latin from the best landlord in Paris Jacques Seguin.  I have had the good fortune of making some wonderful friends and I look forward each year to seeing them and of course I never miss an opportunity to make new ones!  My language skills are somewhat lacking when it comes to fluent French but I always remember my manners and the rest seems to flow quite nicely especially when I smile and as my friends would say “you are always smiling Roniece”!  ahhh tom pee…! (correct spelling is of course Tant pis! but you know I like how I say it better!)

I now live in Paris, France!

PS: I am also known as Murielle… (hence my sign off (french way of course!) in my posts) as in the internationally claimed “The Muriel’s Club” on Facebook, where my Muriels are all fabulous women and who know the true meaning of : “you’re terrible Muriel!”

My daily mantra is “be kind and kindness will follow”… it’s worked so far!
