Filipina Soul

Hotel Gavarni: Paris, France

by Gloria Gamat on November 30th, 2005

I once had a very vivid dream of walking along the vicinity of the Eiffel Tower. It was so vivid, I thought it was actually true. I remember (in my dream) running out of camera film and buying an extra roll from a Filipina vendor. Paris is not the only city in Europe swarmed by Filipinos from all walks of life. That if I ever get to Paris, I’d most probably bump into a fellow Filipino. In fact, one of the posh hotels nearby Eiffel Tower is manned mostly by Filipinos: Hotel Gavarni in Paris, France.

Hotel Gavarni is set to proudly display Filipino work of arts in their interiors; fusing the sophistication of Parisian culture and tradition with the trademark Filipino affection and warmth. In the aim to push Filipino art in the hub of art and culture that is Paris.

I haven’t been to Europe, haven’t been anywhere near it. Hotel Garvani claims to be a Filipino Home away from home. Check it out: I hope to one day. :D
