If there’s any blog post written in 2020 that doesn’t start with something about the global pandemic… well, it wasn’t written in 2020. I’ll only say this - we had very different plans for this year (didn’t everyone?!). I kicked it off all excited about all the plans we had (just see this)… and then none of it happened.

With our time in Paris coming closely to an end (we're moving out in August!) and with the preparation of the big move (keep your fingers crossed!), we're not travelling as much as we would want to, but a quick break in the south of France is always an option.

Paris can be quite surprising when it comes to weather, in contrary to many people's belief that the city of love = the city of sun. After weeks of rain and harsh witner in the middle of May, July didn't really bring the summer bliss for long but guaranteed at least a few sunny days. So the time to munch on a baguette along Canal Saint-Martin with a glass of rose came. Or actually, the time to munch on anything, wherever and with a glass of whatever just to be outside and enjoy the sun... Here's a few of our favourite summer restaurants.

Some people don't believe me how tiring Paris can be. How is it then that every time we get a chance to escape even for a day, it feels so... refreshing? I recently said that I'm not a city kind of person and maybe that's it, but anyway, every occasion to get away is VERY appreciated.

It's the moments like this that make us realise that we're actually not the city kind of peolpe. Exchange coffee in a Parisian cafe to one on the wooden terrace with unspeakable landscape around and tell me it doesn't make a difference...
