French Kisses

With Greek heritage, over a decade in France, Visual Merchandiser & Interior stylist, Maria Vrisakis plants her roots back in Australia. Recently returning from Paris where she owned the vintage shop Marie Louise de Monterey (can you imagine the beautiful things she has seen?) this family of four has now set up home in Avalon, Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Bisous bisous!
