Sunsets in Paris be like…
I love Summer. In twenty days or so, I’m leaving on a well deserved one-month vacation – again, I know what you’re thinking. I love taking an entire month vacay because then it feels like a real break, anything less than that is never enough.
I’m going to visit my family in Serbia – I honestly can’t wait ! In the meantime, I’m gonna enjoy this awesome weather in Paris.
I wasn’t far, but you needed to search in order to find me.
While I wasn’t really blogging, I still kept myself up to date on a couple social media sites, and sometimes I even posted random content… so I wasn’t feeling completely cut out from the internet but I wasn’t very active either.
I actually needed a good break, so that I could think about what I want from life and work on myself. I’m not sure why it took me so long, but I’m not stressing over it. I know I’ve got many things I need to catch up with if now, I want to move towards my goals and although it will give me anxiety, I feel ready to deal with all of what might happen.
Life is a series of unexpected events for everyone. I’ve accepted that, and also the fact that usually life brings a lot of good that’s worth fighting for.
This is where I was hanging out during this huge “break”
Instagram – Pinterest – Twitter – Snapchat – VSCO
Also, evidently… a lot of Netflix ! 😜
Hello everyone… I’m finally back.
Wow, it’s been a while. I was just counting how many times did I post on this blog for the past year, and this is only the 20th post… which is crazy low. I used to update & share my content over twice a week sometimes.
Truth being told, I didn’t get a chance to work on my projects because I didn’t have the needed gear. I used to be on my MacBook all the freaking time, and I was editing until my eyes were red, I had such bad sleeping habits and I wasn’t eating healthy, I didn’t take care of myself : then all of a sudden, my most loved device died on me.
Guess what, I didn’t have the funds back then to repair or replace it. For some reason, I didn’t even care. I was like “okay so this is a mandatory break” and I completely abandoned the pursuit of my ideas, or even dreams.
It’s been way over a year since that happened. I moved back to Paris from LA, which was totally depressing. I started an actual job to help me focus on the realities. I met my boyfriend who’s been non-stop pushing me to move onto better things. But I wasn’t feeling it… there was so many things about me, I needed to repair.
Now I’m still working on some of those things, but I’m in a good place. I’ve realised what I achieved maybe small, but it’s helped me progress on many levels – it’s an everyday effort to keep up with yourself and your well being.
I am currently writing you from my newest MacBook; I invested in one. I decided I matter, whatever it is that fascinates and inspires me, matters as well. It’s important to put into the world what makes your amazing, awesome self so special, and that way you might awaken or give strength (or other positive feelings) to others. Because that’s what I’m personally striving for in life, to connect.
Fondation Louis Vuitton
I went to this amazing contemporary museum in the north of Paris, the architect is Frank Gehry – they’re having the best exhibition I’ve ever been to, on Impressionism. They have these beautiful famous paintings, going from Renoir to Degas, Manet & Gauguin and so many more ! It’s a sight for sore eyes : I’ve only ever seen these works of arts in books before…
My boyfriend came along and he took those two pictures of me that you’ll see below; I really enjoy sharing a cultural moment with him, it truly is important to me as Art has always lifted my soul and spirit, and I feel blessed I can have that with him as well.
Fancy evenings out
I didn’t use to like going out at night before, I was such a dork… since I met my boyfriend, he takes me to nice places and I find myself discovering a new side to the world that’s also pretty and really fun. Restaurants are my favorites of course, I’m in love with food. I also like ending up at private fashion events, or at Maxim’s to enjoy great music. It’s become a game because we never plan too much, so we go from a surprise to another and Paris is so good at that.
