Christmas is always for me the occasion to visit my family and also revisit childhood memories. On entering my parents' home, I immediately fall back into childhood even though I have never lived in this house: my parents only moved in after I had left for Italy. My parents are the king and queen of yard sales. What could have easily become a junk yard actually gives their home a particluar feeling and atmosphere thanks to all these objects which have a soul and a story.
My parents' house is in the region of Vendée (north-west of France) where my father grew up. Therefore, even though I have never lived there, I still cherish that land and that may explain why I grew attached to this house.

Christmas always has this effect on me so I wanted to share with you a part of the world that made me who I am today: Shug'A'Very.
