16. •“ Mixing cocktails in Milan
•Dear Suite-spotters,
Just a quick snapshot of my amazing time in Milan. I booked
on Suitespot as a friend recommended it and I thought it would
be an interesting alternative to a hotel not to mention the
networking opportunities and be around inspiring individuals.
The host was Paula and she was very friendly from the
beginning and it turned out that she and I had a lot in
common, especially in the kinds of designers we loved! On the
Saturday night we went to an exclusive fashion show where I
met some up and coming Italian designers and being with
Paula definitely helped me open up some interested
conversations with them. Not the mention the exquisite
cocktails at the venue. After the party we went to an afterparty
where we met some very inspirign people, the interior design
and layout of the flat was amazing.
Regards,
Email Marketing
