    I simply don’t get all these comments moaning about Susanna „interrupting“ the home owners, thus being disrespectful towards them. The videos themselves are beautiful and Susanna and her guests feel like friends, intimately talking about art, design and architecture, a passion they all share and have in common. These are conversations we are invited in and should be thankful instead of making rude comments. Everyone who does not like the videos is welcome to watch something else.

    So many (most?) regular people have zero sense of how wonderful it is to surround yourself with beautiful things, well-presented in your home. I would never leave until I went thru every. single. one. of those magazines! :o) Regards from Indiana!
