Who this digital magazine is for:

• Those who want to incorporate French lifestyle into their daily lives.
• Anyone who is planning a trip to Paris or other regions of France. 
• Those who want to learn more about French artisans, artists, history, and culture. 
• Anyone who loves all things Parisian! 
• And those who love to support small businesses and authors like myself. 

This digital magazine is the legacy I hope to leave behind. 

Paris is where most of us, travelers, ex-pats, or immigrants, land first in France. It is where I first fell in love with this country. We may end up elsewhere, but our journeys often start here.

"Hi, Shannon! I truly appreciate all of the work that you put in preparing the Paris Quarterly. I take the opportunity to read a few pages while I have a candle burning and having a cup of tea from Mariage Frères or a glass of Chablis. It is a great relaxing escape from my daily life as a caregiver to my mom, who suffers from dementia. While reading the pages and looking at the great pictures, I take notes on what places I would like to visit on my next trip to Paris! You always have fun and new interesting places and great descriptions that make us think we are there with you. During this season of my life, it is my virtual travel, almost like a trusted friend giving me secret addresses. Your videos and Instagram stories just add to this and bring smiles to my days. A digital version is great as you can update it often and it will always be up to date vs. a hardcover book. Thanks again for all that you do. Enjoy the Christmas windows, the hot chocolate, and roasted chestnuts from the street vendors. I can practically smell them from here in Montreal." - Alida G.

"I read through every page of the first edition of your Paris Quarterly. I lived in the Marais for three months (it was my present to myself after I retired), so I love watching your walks of the area. I'm familiar with many restaurants in the Marais, so it was very helpful to get recommendations from you in other arrondissements. Because I loved trying to fit in in Paris, I found your clothing and shopping sections very informative. Knowing the color of the season was great. It was very good to learn from you that purchasing the Paris Quarterly supports local businesses so I will continue to purchase it. Thanks for all the work you do on your site, Instagram and the Paris Quarterly. I love watching and reading them all!" - Laurie J.

"I have loved the Paris Quarterly. It has given me a new perspective of the city as I have only been to Paris in very late winter/early spring, and fall looks like it could be my favorite place to visit again.

Plus, you have shown so many places that aren't "touristy" and are the real Paris, it's almost like a best friend showing her best friend all her little secrets. Thank you, Shannon, for all your hard work." - Shannan A.
