Even on rainy days beautifully moody.

No matter what season you are, this Magritte blue sky after the sunset is the perfect moment to walk in the streets. It's the blue hour

Paris / Architecture

Jardin du Palis-Royal - 1780 Secret place. Between the Louvre and the Place de la Concorde, a wonderful french-style garden. In the 1780’s, Philippe IV of Orleans (later named “Philippe Egalité” ) acquired the whole place. Extravagant and overly indebted, he decided to build shops around his gardens and rent them out. Convinced by the idea of having a theatre, the Duke thus decided to build the “Comédie française”.

Paris / Restaurant

After a long day exploring Paris, a huge plate of noodles is basically the dream. Le Chef Thai is small and cosy, although I think they have a downstairs too which we didn’t see. It’s really relaxed inside and filled with plants so there was a nice calming energy. The guy that served us was super-friendly and we all had an excellent feed for a reasonable price. Happy days.

Paris / Museum

I love to spend time in this museum, with great exhibitions about : fashion, graphic design, jewelry and toys. The bookshop is also really good. And basically... architecture !
