Un petit tout at the Petit Palais my dear ! ✨

I just love Paris for the Art, it’s the absolutely unbeatable city when it comes to that. I’m so grateful to be Parisian-born, because all my life I was in contact with museums and exhibitions, that made me travel the world… until I decided to travel as well ! But nothing compares to this city.

My boyfriend & I set a new goal : it’s to go every week for at least one cultural event, and that’s really easy to do, there’s just so much choice. But also difficult because there’s so much choice ! I mean, whatever we choose each week I’m sure will probably be a delight 🤗

Paris je t’aime, moi non plus

Paris je t'aime, moi non plus

Wow ! I have been looking for the last 2023 photos to share on my blog 😅

I went through my camera roll, and this week’s all that is left… I don’t have any *new* content for next week basically. Thankfully, I do have a couple trips that I never edited, or shared, so I guess you’ll be getting that until I’m able to plan photoshoots : which was part of my 2024 goal.

I want to be more thoughtful with my photography projects, and come up with ideas instead of just going out and shooting whatever. I don’t know how well I can manage that, because it’ll be my first time attempting to be like, professional. I’m laughing at myself, because these past two years have been so crazy with my autoimmune diseases, and instead of being you know, more careful, I’m just going for it. Being sick has definitely made me more fierce.

Promenade to the Louvre

Promenade to the Louvre

This was my best challenge in a long time 😅

With my rheumatoid arthritis, I can’t walk like I used to… definitely not go to museums. But my cousin Mila was in town, and I had promised her the Louvre together, so that’s what I did. We went there, and I managed to get a couple breaks, but it was honestly really painful ! Don’t think I’ll be redoing that any time soon, because the aftermath was intense fatigue…

But on the bright side, I gave a nice tour of my favorite areas (the ones that weren’t closed, because yes, there’s a lot of renovation going on at the moment). We really enjoyed seeing the art ! I missed it, not gonna lie. It was almost worth the pain 😂 no but seriously, it was cool to pretend like I’m able to do these type of things.

So enjoy the photos, because that is it !

Although it could not be more Greek, Crete is really a country within a country, with its own history, folklore, and traditions.

Ah, lovely Heraklion ! We love you so 🤍

It’s the capital of the island, and it’s a must do ! You gotta stay at least a night, because the nightlife is definitely the best here since there’s so much going on with tourism & such. Also, they have the most amazing restaurants… I’d suggest Apiri : take the plate of seafood pasta, trust me. And Peskesi, which are some of my absolute fave places to eat. Don’t go for dinner before 9:30pm or so, people eat late there, it’ll feel empty if you go too early, and who likes an empty restaurant ? Not us !

It’s also the best city for visiting museums, and marvelling at the Cretan architecture. So much archeological sites to see. For hotel, I’d suggest to sleep right in the city center, so you can go by foot everywhere you need. I love the Metropole Urban hotel because it’s close to my favorite eateries, and it’s built on lively square.

Nothing nourishes the soul more than a trip to the South of France

Nothing nourishes the soul more than a trip to the South of France.

What a beautiful trip to the South of France I had ! My boyfriend surprised me with a visit to Cannes, on the French Riviera… oh my gosh, I was so excited. I’ve dreamed of going there for years : and I live in Paris, so it’s not like that complicated to get there, yet I never got to it.
