My story

Just a brunette dreaming of sun, lake views, and French villas.

Hello! My name is Karisa Grimstad and I live in Chelan, Wa. A PNW native with European wanderlust, my happy place is exploring a new place or at least reading about it in a good book. I've lived two stints in Europe, once in southern Spain and again with my little family in Germany back in 2020. My dream day is winding through whitewashed alleys with ancient doors, eating my way through mom and pop bistros, and listening to the hum of gossip in a foreign language. When not jet setting (or dreaming of it) I'm home in Chelan, Wa with my family of four plus my Australian Shepherd, Moose, and a few outdoors kitties aptly named "Kitties." I spend my days organizing and designing my home and those of others, drooling over a new recipe in my kitchen, sweating with friends at the gym, and brainstorming my next photo session. I thrive when creating beauty out of the simple. I love making meaningful connections with people across all genres of personalities. I find purpose in helping others see the best in themselves and exciting them about their own passions.
