I walked to the Louvre from my hotel and I must say that every inch of Paris is magical. I wanted to visit every single store though I did find myself in a bit of a pickle when I noticed many stores and restaurants were closed for the weekend... Perhaps it was only in the area I ventured through. Once I finished snapping pictures and recording videos at Colonnes de Buren or Les Deux Plateaux (the infamous location in Paris with black and white columns), I made my way to the Louvre Museum which is just a few steps away. As noon arrived, nearby restaurants had extensive lines that seemed to curve into the street. For those who are venturing to Paris from the US, I would highly recommend downloading TripAdvisor (I will dedicate a post and video on my channel on things you need to know before going to Paris). I found the a highly rated boulangerie and got myself a sandwich, mille-feuille and Coke. I knew I wanted to soak in as much of Paris as I could so I made my way back to the Louvre and sat down at one of the benches running alongside the museum. To see my adventure, watch my vlog below!
Hello again from the city of love. For this week's post, I'm taking you to Montmartre which is in the 18th arrondissement of Paris. If you're a film fanatic, you may recall this location from Amélie or Moulin Rouge. Most tourists, myself included, visit the main attractions and postcard/Instagram worthy spots. However, there are numerous pockets of isolated areas that are equally charming. I love walkable cities because it gives me the opportunity to stop and go as I please. I wandered through so many different neighborhoods, found quirky cafes, a plethora of boulangeries and beyond. Words really cannot describe how magical this city is regardless of season. Watch the video below and continue reading to virtually travel to Montmartre with me!
Bonjour mes amis! I'm taking you to a bucket list location... PARIS, FRANCE! After finishing up work around Europe and England, I took my first long PTO to Paris! I ventured to the city of love alone but it's impossible to be lonely! From numerous stores scattered around the city to boulangeries in every corner, I looked forward to a new adventure every minute! I had to break up my Parisian series into a couple of posts or it would be terribly long! Click to see more and stay tuned for the rest of my trip!
