Hello fellow hunters!

Have you ever thought you might love living in a particular place? Me too! If I were to move anywhere in the U.S., it would be to Alaska, but if I extend my imagination out over the whole world, I would definitely try for Paris, France! I took French in elementary school, middle school, AND high school (even though I am German--go figure) and loved it. I imagine myself going to flea markets and picking out beautiful vintage shabby chic textiles and sipping coffee on the Champs Elysees! In the U.S., we always hear that the French are not overly fond of Americans, so let's create our own "Welcome to Paris" kit for our partner! So....for this hunt, you will send 1 partner the following:

1 Paris notecard

1 (or more) Paris stickers

1 (or more) rubber stamped Paris images

1 something with the Eiffel Tower on it

1 something with French writing on it

1 picture of a famous French person

1 item with a French poodle

1 handmade Paris envelope

1 Paris-themed surprise item--open to interpretation

And, last but not least, your idea for a classy name for a new French perfume....remember Evening in Paris in the cobalt blue bottle?

There are 10 items to be found.....go forth and HUNT!

Looks like a lot of fun. I'm sitting on the fence for now.. need to clear my dashboard a bit so as not to miss any send by dates.

Thank you both for your interest! I am so in awe of the fact that you speak French! I always think spoken English with a French accent is so beautiful! I watch Top Chef faithfully, and this season, Eric Ripert is a judge--LOVE that accent--same with Hubert Keller and Jacques Pepin..I hope more folks will join in the fun. Maglet, hope you clear your dashboard and can join us!
