L.A.Observed added a new reporter to its stable. Véronique de Turenne lives in Malibu and "will feature her observations on coastal life and culture". He first post talks about a local phenomenon -- the million dollar Malibu trailer:
"I've wanted to live here ever since I can remember. Even so, when my very proper French mother learned we bought a trailer on the beach in Malibu, she was shocked into silence. No matter that it once belonged to Otis Chandler, that it looks quite like a house and sits on a roomy lot. My home is registered with the DMV. It's attached to a chassis. It has a serial number. Paint it, tile it, call it what you will, it's a trailer." [more]
My Euro network is baffled, too. They don't get it: a million greens for a caravane?! But the view is worth it.... And who needs a XXL château when you live in paradise?- Million $ trailers in the N.Y.Times
