Mani Martini
I learned this trade on the peninsula, then in Dubai, then at altitude. Three houses, two seasons with nothing in common, and the same conviction: what makes a stay is never what you book, it’s what you anticipated.
LanguagesFrench · English
Dubai taught me that anything can be obtained. Saint-Tropez taught me that obtaining everything isn’t enough. What stays with you from a stay isn’t the impossible table secured at midnight, it’s having had, for eight days, nothing to think about.
