Chemin de Nietzsche

Chemin de Nietzsche

My boyfriend loves Nietzsche, so I surprised him with this hike !

I knew there was this beautiful path that the philosopher used to take to get to the medieval town of Èze. It’s definitely more for experienced hikers, and not for someone like me suffering from rheumatoid arthritis 😅. But I also read online that there were many spots along the way where you could sit and rest : and that’s absolutely true ! Without it, I wouldn’t have managed to get up there. It’s an hour hike, it took me over two hours… as you can imagine, I sat whenever I could.

It was a real challenge for the both of us, for him it was a special connection to the writer, and for me it was completely physical. Being quite recently diagnosed with two auto-immune diseases has been difficult for me, but I know I can’t achieve anything if I let that be the best of me. So I push myself, and I’m always happy when I reach my goals, like this one ❤️.

Peering over the French Riviera with my dark glasses

I love swimming so much, and it’s so good for the body !

Here I am in Villefranche-sur-Mer, they have one of the best little beaches you can find on the Riviera. The water is excellent, because it’s not super open, like in Cannes where it’s miles of beaches. The water is consequently warmer (not by much, but still). It’s a beautiful view as well, with all the fancy yachts.

Grasse must be one of the prettiest little towns you can find in the South of France !

It is so colorful, with all the old buildings, and there’s perfume everywhere… of course since it’s the city of perfume ! Umbrellas follow wherever you go, cute cafés a daring sun that just won’t quit. Everything that I love. Cote d’Azur is a total dream, you shouldn’t hesitate to spend a few days here ☀️

I’m here for the views and sparkling rosé !

I’m here for the views and sparkling rosé !

How gorgeous is the South of France ? It’s as dreamy as you may picture it from the books, and the movies…

I fell really in love with this area, I want to move there from Paris. This is just perfectly peaceful for my soul. I always said that the only things I need in life, are a sunny weather, by the water, and a practical urban environment. That’s my end goal. I definitely had all that when I lived in L.A., thus why Paris even though it’s beautiful, gives me seasonal blues and what not. Which I definitely hate, because I’m a bubbly person who thrives under the sun !

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.
