  • Of all the beautiful places we stayed, Stanley's Camp was one of my absolute favorites. Nestled in the Okavango Delta, each tent had porch that looked out into the gorgeous delta and the animals would come quite close. It was a magical setting in a beautiful part of the world, Botswana.

    After graduating from Parsons School of Design, I began my career in fashion design and freelanced both in New York City, as well as London. I designed hand knits for Elle Magazine and was the editor of the Hand Knit Page before hand knits fell out of fashion in the early 1990's and the page was discontinued. In 2008 I launched my jewelry design business, designing fine jewelry in 18 & 20 Kt Gold with gemstones that I hand select for each piece. Several awards and numerous write ups & interviews in all kinds of magazines and online zines, I rediscovered hand stitching and my life took another turn. I have been designing in some form since I sold my first felt embroidered xmas tree ornaments to a small shop in Northern California when I was 16 years old, and have never looked back. And while I've had detours along the way: had two children, worked at an advertising agency, got into acting in my early 20's, published some articles for various magazines and wrote for the Huffington Post for a few years, I have always come back to designing. It is my first love and remains so to this day.

      @@stelitacantanhede429 Estou trapaceando usando o google tradutor, mas queria responder no seu idioma. Obrigado por todos os vossos comentários. Eles me fazem muito feliz e significam muito para mim. Então, obrigada. Eu amo este planeta e este mundo e seus habitantes. Uma das coisas que mais amo em viajar é conhecer as pessoas que moram e trabalham lá. Meu desejo é saber falar todas as línguas. Isso seria mágico! No momento estou tentando aprender francês, espanhol e alemão e é muito difícil para mim, mas continuo tentando! Obrigado novamente. Um dia desses, adoraria visitar mais a América do Sul. Eu só estive no Peru e na América Central. Com carinho Ariane

    So, how do you adjust back in NY after a trip like that. I can barely focus on getting ready for work after seeing this … such sounds and the delta is gorgeous.🙏

      That's a great question! Especially as my mother died while we there. That's documented in today's video, actually and it was the loss of her that has thrown me more than jet lag or anything else. Just very, very, very difficult. But working helps in some ways, particularly if I don't push myself too hard. ❤️
