Mondays in Paris ::: Paris in the Fall



We spent most of your weekend just walking around
and taking in our favorite spots -
all with a completely new look to me,
as I was lucky enough to spend some of spring and summer there,
but never fall.

Let me tell you,
it is just as lovely now
with grey skies and golden leaves
as it was when the flowers were out
and the sun was still going strong.
I'm sure this doesn't surprise you.













I hope you have a great start to the new week!

Friday in Paris ::: On the Road



This post should actually be titled
Friday on the way to Paris
because I am about to get into the car
and drive off...


... to Paris.






My boyfriend's time there is up
and we are going on a roadtrip
to get his things.

If our internet cooperates,
the next Monday in Paris
will be live.

Berlin Moments


This time in Berlin was a bit different,
as sightseeing was mostly replaced by
time spent with friends
busily chatting away,
catching up on all that's been going on
and swooning over
a former classmate's new baby.


So the pictures I have for you today
are just a few quick impressions
from along the way...




This time we stopped by its sister café
which means "Buy yourself happy."


I'm not so sure about buying happiness,
but sitting in this adorable café,
sipping hot drinks with friends
and telling our stories
definitely made all of us happy.


As did the fun little touches,


like selling
"Nothing!"
for 0 Euros


and a lounge area by the toilet.


Walking along the streets of Berlin
there is never a dull moment
and I discovered this sweet
question on a wall:
"When will you finally kiss me?"


Someone added the answer beneath in the red heart:
"Now."

Berlin Is Waiting


I am off to Berlin today!


A reunion with my
best friends from high school awaits,
lucky me.

In the meantime,

*******

will be a few days late next week,
I hope you won't mind
a Thursday or Friday in Paris instead.

Have a lovely weekend!

Mondays in Paris ::: Reading Material



It's that time of year
that makes you want to
curl up with a good book.

So why not do that in Paris for today?

Mondays in Paris ::: Je suis désolée.


Sacre bleu,
it's Monday already?
Where did the last week go?

I'm sorry,
all I have to offer today is a sweet spring rose
and a view of the Pont des Arts...

Have a great start to your week!

Mondays in Paris ::: A Quick Walk



Monday has arrived once again,
the sun is shining
and all I want to do is stroll through
beautiful neighborhoods.

So today I have a simple post
with a few favorite Paris moments.

I am dreaming of
favorite boutiques
merry-go-rounds
those omnipresent chestnut trees
white and beige facades
colorful store fronts
beauty in the everyday
yellow roses, blue fences
striped umbrellas
and that rooftop balcony in the sun.










Have a lovely Monday,
I hope you enjoy this first week of October!
