    Living Room Reveal

    I know some of you have been waiting for this post a long time. Probably since Ken and I moved into our new home last March. Sorry for the wait. As you probably know, I’m a perfectionist. I wanted to have all the furniture, home decor and art properly installed, placed and hung to the walls before sharing photos of our new living room with you. The space is finally ready to be shown, and I can’t wait for you guys to see it. * Click photo to enlarge. Like for many, the living

    Get Elevated… Literally And Figuratively!

    I’ve wanted acrylic risers, ever since I first discovered them last year. I loved how they made something simple look elegant, and something special even more important and luxurious. I couldn’t find the sizes I needed, until I discovered shopPOPdisplays. They produce hundreds of sizes in-stock and ready to ship, but what I really love about shopPOPdisplays, is they offer custom sizes! * Click photo to enlarge. I love using our acrylic risers to showcase pottery and sculpture

    How We Personalized Our New Bathroom

    As you know, we recently moved into a new place and hopefully you’ve already seen my walk-in closet reveal here. Since we’re renting, reconfiguring the space and remodeling the bathroom was not an option. However, I’m excited to share in this post how we personalized the space with a few accessories and a bit of imagination. I personally spend a lot of time in the bathroom, so naturally it needed to be functional but also nice and enjoyable. Whether I’m getting ready for the

    Live Greener with Tetra Pak

    Like many of you, being a part of protecting the environment is important to me. So, when Tetra Pak asked that I share some easy tips for living greener to help improve the health of our planet, of course, I said YES! I truly believe even the smallest of choices and actions, have big impact on making our planet better today and for the next generation. Here are some of my personal choices I make daily to help Mother Earth. Purchase Environmental Friendly Packaging I always tr

    New Home. New Closet.

    As you may know, Ken and I recently moved into a new loft space. We didn’t move far from our old place, just around the corner to be precise. For us, there is no other neighborhood better suited for our lifestyle than Uptown, Dallas. Being in a walkable neighborhood is extremely important to both of us, that’s why as long as we’re in Dallas, 75201 will be home. This makes our fourth move together and second in the USA. In fact, did you know this month marks our second year li

    Visit Our Home One Last Time, Because... We're Moving!

    Big news, Ken and I are moving!! But before we start packing, I wanted to share some pictures of our current home. Ken and I have been living in the Glass House, a high-rise in uptown Dallas, for almost 2 years. As much as we love our current home, we feel it's time for a new challenge. Whether moving around the corner or half way around the globe, we have always found the process of moving fun. And we’re especially excited about this next one! I can't tell you where we’ll be

    Making US-A Home

    As I’ve mentioned many times before, I originally created Hello_Francois as a way to share my personal experiences as I now navigate life in the U.S. I wanted my friends and family in France, and abroad, to learn about my new American way of life, and more specifically, life in Dallas. Especially since Texas is large enough to be its own country! However, soon after launching my blog, the content of posts began to evolve as I started collaborating with local businesses and br

    5 Ways To BE The BEST Guest EVER

    I love having friends over! I'm very blessed to live in a beautiful home that offers stunning views of Dallas, and there's nothing I enjoy more than sharing my home with friends. Whether sharing a home-prepared meal or simply enjoying a few cocktails with friends, there are certain etiquettes you should follow when benefiting from a friend's hospitality. So today, I thought I'd write a short post to remind people how to be the best guests ever! 1) Never Arrive Empty Handed Th

    A Visit Of Southfork Ranch : On The Footprints Of JR And Sue Ellen

    A few weeks ago, Ken, my mum and I visited the Southfork Ranch, used as the setting for the original and continuation 'Dallas' series. When I asked my mum if she would be interested in visiting the ranch, her answer was "YES!!!" with no hesitation. I was pretty excited myself, I have to admit. When I was a kid, I used to watch 'Dallas' with my mother. We would always make sure not to plan anything else during show time. It was a big deal for us. It was a big deal for a lot of

    Reunion Tower : 560 Feet Above Ground

    Ken and I have visited Five Sixty (a Wolfgang Puck restaurant atop Reunion Tower) for drinks and dinner a few times over the last two years. However, we had never been to the observation deck of the Reunion Tower until last week. Let me tell you that we were not disappointed… AT ALL! The observation deck, called GeO-Deck, offers breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views of Dallas that can be enjoyed both from inside or outside. If you go outside, get prepared for a free blow ou

    Getting High In The Chase Tower

    Hellofrancois.com was born last September (2016). I wanted a place where I could share all the cool places I have come to love in Dallas. From the Arboretum, to the 6th Floor Museum, not to mention downtown, I’ve been sharing with you guys my favorite spots in the Big D. At first, I wanted my friends and family to know what to see and do when they visit. My blog would become a kind of city guide for them. I also realized that a lot of people who were born or who have been liv

    The Countdown Is On With Jack Mason

    In exactly one month today, we will celebrate Christmaaaaaas, aka my favorite Holiday of the year! As tradition has it, I'm sure you have already started shopping for all your friends and family members. Today, I want to share a great gift for that special man on your list. Have you heard the quote "watches are man's best friend"? Well, I think it's true because I have personally never met a man who doesn't like watches! That's why I want to introduce Jack Mason.

    You Know You Live In The US When...

    - You have a TV commercial every 5 minutes, LITERALLY! They constantly interrupt every show you watch to the point where they are not worth watching. I personally decided to stop watching TV. Fortunately, there is Netflix. - You never have to get wet to wash your car because here other people can do for you. - You start taking #shoefies with the grass because you find it beautiful. Despite the Texas heat, the grass is always so green and healthy, and the edges are soooooo wel

    (Re-)Discovering Downtown Dallas

    There are so many things to see in Downtown Dallas that I'm not sure where to start. All along Main Street, which is the main street in Dallas (I found this out myself!) aka the heart of the city, you will see a great mix of Neo-Gothic, Beaux-Arts, Art-Déco and Postmodern style buildings. Things to see on Main Street : ​ - The Bank of America Plaza Building : At 921 feet (280.7 m) tall, this building is the tallest in Dallas, and the third tallest in Texas. The building is kn

    Hong Kong Lifestyle Vs. Dallas Lifestyle

    For the readers who don't know, before moving to Dallas, I lived in Hong Kong for 2 years. Hong Kong offered one of the best life experiences I could ever imagine. First, it allowed me to meet my sweet husband Ken. I also met some incredible people that I'm happy to call friends. Finally, because of the central location of Hong Kong, I managed to travel to multiple countries throughout Asia. Today, Dallas is home, and being able to write this makes me very happy. No need to t
