In this episode, I talk with Adrienne Ryser about her journey from sunny California to lively Paris, and now to peaceful Oslo. She shares how growing up surrounded by flowers and working in PR led her to buy the oldest flower shop in Paris, and later bring her floral art to Norway. Her story is about love, resilience, and finding inspiration in unexpected places.

Adrienne also talks about the cultural differences she’s noticed in her new home, from local flower traditions to the slower pace of life in Norway. She explains how she combines French techniques with her own style, and gives us a glimpse of her upcoming book on French floral arranging.

This episode takes you behind the scenes of starting a business abroad, adjusting to a new culture, and turning challenges into opportunities. If you’ve ever thought about moving somewhere new, starting fresh, or just enjoy stories of change and growth, you’ll find this conversation inspiring.
