I know, shame on me, but I couldn’t resist buying one of the most typical tourist souvenir from Paris – the Eiffel Tower keyring…. One of the most ugliest buildings in the world, according to me, yet a great symbol of Paris, since you can see the tower almost from wherever you are when you’re in the city. So what couldn’t be better than having my own miniature Eiffel Tower, next to my gilded heart from Paris? Small details but things that evokes so many feelings. Now it’s on my window frame in my bedroom so that I can see it whenever I wake up and just before I go to sleep :-)

Yesterday evening it was time to leave my beloved Paris. Luckily it was a sunny day, around 15 degrees…so I had been strolling around in the city during the whole day….and then took a long break in the beautiful square, Place des Vosges..which is the perfect place for those sunny days.

The photo above was taken when I was in the shuttlebus on my way to the airport, on the bridge Pont d’Alexandre…in the background you can see the Louvre.

Can’t wait to plan my next trip to Paris…until then I will go through my photos and share them with you ;-)

Summer in Paris is great but personally I prefer the Spring when the beauty of Paris is re-born each year…or the Autoumn with all the colour changes of the leaves in the trees. During summer time I let the big crowd of tourists have their piece of Paris…while I go to a place close to the sea. Last year I went to Deauville but also a couple of times to the island Ile de Ré….this time I will go to a new place – also called the paradise on earth. To be continued ;-)
