Last bits of Spring

Last bits of Spring


Don’t know if y’all remember, but I re-opened my photo store via 500px recently… here it is !

Because they had changed their payouts rules in favor to the photographer; but they’re so complicated, they barely accept any picture for licensing. It has to be super basic, something they for sure know it would sell, or shot with a real high quality camera. So I’ve been struggling to get myself at over 20… and it’s not even my fave pictures.

That’s just not how I like to shoot, plus I don’t care about the quality so much, I’m more into this film-like aesthetic that I have going on, which fits me perfectly. Besides, I’m a hobbyist photographer, I ain’t gonna drop a large sum of money on a high end camera, when my iPhone already gives me incredible shots.

Anyway. I’m gonna have to move my sales to another platform ! I’m keeping 500px for sure, and I’ll update it as usual, but I need something where I can pick and choose what I want for sale, and have better options for myself. I guess I’m gonna be spending my next few days (and not weeks hopefully) at this research and make. 🧿 We’ll see what I come up with, xoxox.

Back from my unannounced break !

Back from my unannounced break !

Hello everyone !

So, as you might have noticed, I did take a month-long unannounced break… there’s a couple things I want to get out of the way;

The first reason I stopped blogging all of a sudden, is because I realized I was overexposed and I wasn’t really vibing with that anymore. Especially after my doctor told me I should just chill, and figure out my new needs and adjust my expectations along with that. I also like pretty much stopped hopping & sharing on Instagram or TikTok. Honestly it was really good, helped me figure out some things.

Last post on my current whereabouts, before I start sharing pictures from Crete !

I originally didn’t want to publish those photos on here, because they’re my boyfriend’s & I summer vacation pics, but I need a little break to work on another project, and in the meantime I don’t want to leave my blog without any content when I know I have some.

The weather in Paris has been absolutely stunning up until now… we’ve entered a period of doom ! It’s been raining every day 😭

But right before that, we’ve had the most incredible sunsets, the sky was on fire most nights. We had red suns setting on the woods. It was insane, and so beautiful ! I captured some moments, when we went for walks in the woods, enjoy 🤗

For Sichuan cuisine, come to Trantranzai !

For Sichuan cuisine, come to Trantranzai !

What a change of scene !

This restaurant is a fave of my boyfriend, he loves noodle soup made with that special Sichuan pepper. Sichuan pepper has an incredible taste. He loves it so much we even bought some to use in our homemade Asians dishes. If you don’t know what it is, don’t be a fool and try it out 😂

So Trantranzai (that’s the name of the place), is quite famous in Paris. Not only is the decor kinda cool; you feel like you’re in a little joint in the middle of nowhere-China. But also the food is good !

I don’t know what they do to their noodles, but they’re always delicious. It’s a fun experience to be there, you can also choose how spicy you want your food to be (my boyfriend goes for 4, while I’m not that adventurous… I take 0 🤣). The only thing I’m not a fan of, food-wise, are the desserts. They’re a bit bland. I’m also not a fan of bubble tea, it’s too sweet for me.

Rating for this restaurant is 6/10
I can’t grade them better because last time they forgot half our order, the soups are also usually too salty. And also you have to tell them to watch their fingers, otherwise they don’t and it’s so unsanitary.

Primaveral… the very beginning of spring

Primaveral... the very beginning of spring

I love this season 🤍

There’s a sensible winter coldness in the air, but you can already see spring making its way, with trees blooming white flowers. My favorite time of the year is almost there (or not, but it’s getting closer). Also I’m slowly but surely getting better, so now I can even go on nice walks in Paris. It’s tiring, but it makes me happy to get out. Next week, I’m gonna start sharing pictures from my vacation to Crete last summer. I’ve edited a bunch, so they’re ready to go 🤗
