about this blog

Lafille americaine or ‘the american girl,’ is a DC lifestyle and travel blog that covers all things arts, culture, fashion, and food in the District of Columbia. Not specific to girls, or americans, this blog is a space for you to come for information on trendy events and experiences in the Washington area, and get ideas on how to make the most of arts and culture opportunities in the city.

As this blog begun during my time teaching English abroad in France, I also document my adventures, and review experiences traveling, both in the U.S. and overseas, on this blog.

Feel free to reach out to me with questions, comments, or opportunities at joannau51@gmail.com.
