Fabienne is a Parisian in every sense of the word; she was born and raised in the 15th. Currently she lives in the 18th arrondissement. Fabienne's great-grandfather was an architect who built many of the buildings in Paris.His name was given to a square in the 15th arrondissement. A library scientist for 20 years who has three grown children now in their 30s, Fabienne enjoys cooking and is passionate about the arts and music.
