Your favourite book Diary of a wimpy kid series and my favourite film is monte carlo

Something you did recently that you really loved I did Create East – a workshop of singers, dancers, musicians, artists & film makers in Sydney. I was selected for dance. We worked for 3 days and at the end we did 2 shows… it was amazing fun and I made lots of new friends.

The best holidays you ever had ? Traveling to Europe with my mum. We went to the uk to my uncles house in the country and I visited by friend harper in London. I also made friends with my cousins. Then we went to Italy which is very nice.

A place that you would dream to visit Paris, because I’ve seen it in movies and I would like to climb the Eiffel tower.

A place you saw when you were a child, and that made its mark on you We went on a family holiday to Mauritius when I was about 10 or 11. We hired a house on a beach and a VW beetle. I remember the hills and the feeling of your heart jumping as the car raced down the other side. I remember the wonderful mix of cultures, Indian, Chinese, Creole & French, the markets filled with colours and exotic smells, the coloured earths, the coral reef and the white sand beaches. It was a magical holiday

The place you love near your home Our back garden, it’s big and spacious and completely self contained – almost like a park and it’s filled with kids in the afternoons and on weekends…

Where do you dream to go for your next family holiday Back to Venice in September 2012 – and Paris for a few days with Anya.

A film that you saw recently and that staid with you? The Iranian film ‘the separation’ is an extraordinary film. One can empathize with all the characters and it’s such a precarious and culturally sensitive situation. It is exquisitely written, acted & directed with a sense of honesty about it.

The film that you love to see with the whole family? Hugo

The book on your bedside table Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese & Frida Khalo A Song of Herself by Hayden Herrera

The children’s brands your cherish Petit Bateau, Imps & Elfs, Maan, Caramel

The children’s stores you love to visit and buy from  Smallable & Little Fashion Gallery

What do you buy online? Everything – anything. Mecca, ebay, muji, apc

A website that inspires you I can only think of instagram – iphone app that I find wondefully inspiring

Last item you added to your child’s wardrobe  A yellow swimming costume for next summer –thinking ahead!

Favourite pieces in your child’s wardrobe A divine navy blue wool petite bateau jumper
