2 MORE DAYS - Wheeeww, had to take a breather between tours and just lay in the sun at Place de Vosges. 🙏🏿💕

Want to see a snippet of my dream book “Local Paris” ?
☀️
Here you go, each neighbourhood has its own Color, a highlight section, a directory and a suggested itinerary - plus the best places to eat, drink, wander and stay 📖💕
☀️
This book is full of so much joy, color and wonderful information about Paris. I’m very very proud to have spent 4 years putting it together.

We deep dive into 12 of my favorite neighbourhoods - the best places to eat, drink, stay and wander - with a focus on living authentically, having serendipitous fun and avoiding all the tourist traps.

NB: Could you tag anyone that can help us spread the word !? This book deserves to be fully funded. 🚀💕

This is an “all or nothing” crowdfunding campaign on kickstarter, when fully funded we go to print, if not you get your money back and we can’t print the books.

So it’s go time my loves! I know we can do this!!
Dreams are coming through - I’m so happy to put this out in the world. It’s out of my hands ❤️🙏🏿🚀 I LOVE YOU!!

I really wanted this coffeeshop to be good so I could share with you all, but the guy there was so irritable and snappy with some kids for moving some stools around I was like dude chill! He lost his s**t on some 7 years old playing!! 😳🤣 there was literally zero other clients sitting there!! Coffee was good but it won’t make the cut, and I won’t be going back here - but I just had to show this vintage dress though 😘💜

PARIS STREETS TO KNOW: when I first moved to Paris I lived at the end of 📍Rue Montorgueil - arguably one of the best local streets that have a great market vibe with fruit sellers, cheese shops, butcher and your fair share of cafes to pick choose and refuse.

After living in other neighbourhoods I’ve come to discern what I’d like to think are overall “local” feel market streets where you can stop and smell the roses (at a flower shop! ) or stop and have a glass of Pouilly Fume.

Another one of these streets is 📍Rue Cler - here I first found the cheapest supermarket in Paris ( Aldi is about 8 mins from the Eiffel Tower) to get basics.

If you’re coming to Paris and looking to rent an apartment. I’d suggest close to this steeet - and there’s an in-depth article from I enjoy!

Thank you for being the coolest photographer gal pal in Paris 🤗😋☕️🌸💕
