Parijs is zo’n stad waar ik nooit genoeg van zal krijgen. Ik heb er een jaar gewoond en hoe vaak ik ook terug ga voor een korte stedentrip, het blijft fantastisch om er weer even te zijn. Wandelend door de charmante straatjes, koffie drinken bij een sfeervol café,...
No, the Eiffel Tower was not one of my new discoveries in Paris. I just liked the photo. But just as I'm discovering so many new places in Amsterdam this weekend, I also always find something new when I'm in Paris. Despite the rain, I loved walking around the...
In a city as obsessed with fashion and beauty as Paris, the importance of a good beauty sleep should not be underestimated. So where do stay when you're visiting the city for the weekend? For my recent trip I was looking for a modern, luxurious hotel in an...
The great thing about Paris is that it's close to London. The downside is that the weather will be just as unpredictable. Sure, Paris is always a good idea. But do you still think so when you're walking around the city in the pouring rain? A couple of weeks ago, when...
A little warning for friends and family of bloggers. Don’t spend too much time reading their blogs and listening to their stories about blogging ‘adventures’ (drinking afternoon tea can be an adventure too right?), or you might run the risk of turning into one of them. I’ve seen it happening, and let me tell you… it ain’t pretty. I’m kidding of course. But it turned out that I wasn’t the only one in Paris focussing on taking nice pictures and finding foodie places to write about. My friend Sandra (who took the photos of me with my ONA bag) is becoming a serious food blogger with her first stories on Holland’s most populair culinary website Culy.nl. So how do two foodies spend two days in Paris? Eating of course!
Staring out the window of the Eurostar, I’m thinking about the last time I was in Paris. Twenty years old, studying at Sciences Po and with a room at the Cité Universitaire. I didn’t think much about best places to eat or most trendy hotels to stay. Simply because as a student I didn’t have the budget to go out all the time (let alone pay for a meal at one of the popular restaurants) and I didn’t need a hotel. So even though there once was a time when I knew the city well, when it came to planning this trip it almost felt like I was going to Paris for the very first time.
