Sunny Sunday

There is something magical about London when the sun is shining.

So, today I decided to  take a long walk in central London to get away from everything. I do this often, giving some time to myself to think and organise my thoughts.  I love observing people and definitely interact and learn things from them. London is a  place where you can meet people from all over the world and draw inspiration from them. This is one of  the main reasons I chose this city to live.

The weather was brilliant, the climate was warm and there wasn’t even a single drop of rain. Ahh… I smell summer. People were just happy, loud and all smiles laying on the grass with their friends without worries – or maybe they were just drunk but who cares 😉

This is life…enjoying the little things you can’t buy!

Oh Paris, I never get bored of you…

I delayed to write a blog post about Paris since it is so cliché, but then I said why not!

Maybe some people find it useful with my insights and recommendations. Always, love to help.

So I visited France for the second time, particularly Paris.

The first time was in summer 2012 and the second time this winter of 2022. Wow – ten whole years later- that’s a long time in fact.

There is something magical and inspiring about Paris because of the romantic atmosphere that encapsulates. I believe the majority of the people who visited this city agree with me.

I don’t know where to start from and definitely I know that I can’t stop describing the beautiful places that this city offers and the monuments that are worth visiting.

There are so many but I will stick to the basics for someone who wishes to stay for a period of 4-5 days.

Is it the Eiffel Tower, The Notre Dame, the Champs Elysse avenue, the Seine river, the Louvre museum, the little Parisians mystical roads and the hidden local restaurants, bars and coffee shops?

Who doesn’t love au pain de chocolate?

Even my mum loves it who is not font of chocolate. 🍫

There are so many local brasseries that produces warm au pain de chocolates.

I suggest eating them in the morning where the bread is still warm and it can be eaten fresh. Combine it with a cup of hot chocolate and voila- there you go! You are falling in love! 😻

When I visit a city like Paris, I just walk around, wander and enter into buildings or cafes/ restaurants when I feel it like. Normal right? I rarely book in advanced especially in Europe unless the place is promising and spectacular. I leave my instinct to guide me rather planning all day and night before. 🌠

I must admit a little plan is required but if you want to have fun please don’t overdo it with planning🤪.

I list down below some spots which I believe it’s worth visiting. I haven’t been to all yet only to some of them but please let me know how your experience was with the food, restaurants, places and people. 😀
