Live Abroad in Paris!

A self-described Love Muse, Melody Kiersz is an Argentine-American residing in Paris, France.

She is living fully in pursuit of Aliveness.

It was at the young age of thirteen that Melody set the intention to live and attend university in the United States. The time of her graduation coincided with increased social and economic instability in Buenos Aires. This pushed her parents to move the entire family.
Landing in Florida, the family settled in as Melody continued on to New York; where she had been accepted to study at Parsons School of Design. A couple years in Melody found herself questioning, even doubting her ability. She was losing her desire to pursue a career in fashion.
A natural seeker, Melody found her a student at the NYU Gallington School of Individualized Study, where she successfully completed a degree in Happiness. Yes, Happiness!
In recent years, the culmination of living in New York City for fifteen years, the pressure of competing to meet a false standards in the U.S., increased critical self-talk, being nearly drained of any ability to be creative and a series of unfortunate events were wearing heavily on Melody. This all led one conclusion; it was time to follow the pull, up sticks and lives as she is called.
Note: Your family history may hold the key to your gaining a second passport. Have a look.

Melody Kiersz, Self Love Muse Living in the Pursuit of Aliveness in Paris
Melody Kiersz, Self Love Muse
“In society we’re always focused on achieving and going higher and higher. That’s not the way nature works. Nature has its cycle of growth and peak and decay and then death and rebirth. But we tend to
resist that.”
Get more freedom and self expression in your life.

Eats and Drinks in Paris

Un café s’il vous plait.

For a great coffee and light breakfast or brunch:

  • Café Leopard – 11ème at 149 Boulevard Voltaire near the Charonne Metro.

Craving a strong French coffee? Pop in to Café Leopard to have immersive experience at this very local, non-touristy café.

  • Café Buvette Gastrothèque – 9ème at 28 rue Henri Monnier

A late night cozy and casual sister gastro-pub to the one in the West Village of New York.
A luxurious ambiance and delicious food, great coffee and reasonably priced. Melody rates this place a fantastic all-around place to dine during your next trip to Paris.

Pâtisserie:

  • Bontemps Pâtisserie Bontemps – 3ème at 13 rue de Saintonge, Marais.
