Marrakesh: and a tale of an exciting update at Peacock Pavilions.

Dear Friends,

It’s been a busy time at Peacock Pavilions, in terms of work and play.  I thought I’d share with you a few fun things that have been happening!

  • A while back you might have remembered that I wrote about our involvement in an Irish reality TV show, called WWOOFÁIL, about volunteers who WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms).  Peacock Pavilions was chosen as one of six sites for the show because we’ve had WWOOFers since we opened.  The show began airing on the Irish station TG4 on March 21 at 10 p.m., and you can watch it on TG4’s player- www.tg4.tv.  The episode at Peacock Pavilions is the last in the series and will broadcast on April 25.  Tune in if you can (I haven’t seen it myself and so will be watching, too!). The two stars of the show -- Mairéad Ní Chuaig and Conall Ó Máirtín -- are adorable!

  •  We feel so fortunate to have recently had Peacock Pavilions shot by talented Danish stylist Lykke Foged and amazing Danish photographer Morten Holtum. These two take a very pure and personal approach to their work and I really enjoyed getting to know them.  Looking forward to publication sometime soon:-) 
  • I am very excited to be a small part of a new avant-garde business magazine (print and online) called, Cake and Whiskey, geared towards businesswomen.  In the next year, the magazine is teaming up with amazing companies like Cartier and Citi, and women’s organizations such as Women Impacting Public Policy and 85 Broads to reach women globally.  If you are a businesswoman or would like to be, I urge you to consider subscribing to Cake and Whiskey.  You can get 25% off your subscription with the code MM25.  {You’ll see my face and some business-oriented tips from me in the Summer issue.}
  • I mentioned to you that we were thrilled to have Peacock Pavilions featured in the German Magazine, Flair - Fashion & Home.  What we didn't know is that our house made the cover (cartwheels!).
