Have any design professionals worked on this space? My friend Megan Burmeister helped me bring the dining and gathering room to life!
Why is your home the smallest, coolest space?
My apartment is true gem! After months of listings and viewings, I magically found this spacious, well lit place by striking up conversation with a woman on the street. I dreamt of an unfurnished place (uncommon for expats) and it was! I wanted my energy and vibes to make Amsterdam feel like home for this Miami girl. It's become a bubble of vibrant, tropical fun in romantic, historical Amsterdam.
How does your home reflect you?
My home embraces and references growing up in Miami and my Cuban heritage. The vibes bring me joy. What is also important to me is playful creativity and humor. From paper flowers and funky mirrors to framed art by indie artists, I collect what brings out the kid in me. I can't forget all the trinkets from my love of culture, travels, and adventure. My family sometimes calls me Carmen Sandiego!
