They say, if you’re wondering if the universe has heard your manifestations, you can notice the confirmation appearing in your life in the form of sudden and unexpected events that happen into your life. Last year, I have manifested to attend the Cannes Film Festival, and Campari made my dreams come true.
Finally answering the most asked question via direct messages on Instagram. Through a blogpost is easier to list all my favorite places where to eat and drink in Paris, and have a page to send it over to everyone. This post is 100% not sponsored, but I love to share my favorite spots with you.
Few of them might be too popular, pricy and always crowded. However these places are iconic and must visit hotspots in Paris. From vegan to opulent Parisian restaurants, celebrity hotspots to plant-based cafés, I have listed numerous places for everyone. Scroll down and save them on your google maps!
As you may have seen on my Instagram stories, last week I was in Paris with Julia for few days and we finally got the change to visit Musée Rodin.
Certainly museums such as the Louvre or the Musée d’Orsay are among the largest and most impressive museums in Paris. They are listed in every top 10 list of Parisian museums, but smaller Parisian museums deserve attention too, just like the impressive Rodin Museum.
I seem to be traveling non stop lately and everything looks like I’ve not been at home a lot. I almost has for one week at home or two weeks between next trips, but I’m not complaining and it is wonderful to have such a busy and intense life. I’m enjoying every second of this crazy busy period, and I’m already certain that my children will be tired of hearing my stories about the places I have visited, people I met and the things I’ve seen in my twenties and thirties. My motto is: “Take every chance you get and say yes to new opportunities!”
Finally I can share some photography impressions from my last visit to Nice and some nice tips about this beautiful city in south of France. Nice is famous for its belle époque architecture, long beach promenades and famous hotels. Less than a month ago, I went to Côte d’Azur for a special project, but I will tell you a lot more on my next blogpost. This time, I wanted to write an article, where I can share some images and to give you some useful tips!
