bonjour 2020

after a quick train ride from london, we arrived to the city of lights! paris has always been my favorite city (did you know i studied abroad here!?) and i was so excited to be back…especially to ring in the new year! while we opted for a more low key itinerary compared to london, we did have a few highlights on the schedule! the first being our “big” plans on new years eve - we went to go see swan lake! i know…the provost are crazy party animals haha! and our big meal of the trip was to le jules verne: restaurant in the eiffel tower by michelin-starred chef frédéric anton.

café society

my final post from paris is here and i am a little sad about it! for our final full day in paris, i knew we needed to stop at the most iconic café in paris: café de flore. located in my old neighborhood on the boulevard saint-germain, this quaint little café has hosted some of the world's finest patrons. does ernest hemingway ring a bell? although andrea nor i are the next hemingway, we felt honored to grace this historic parisian spot! and the hot chocolate is one of my favorites in the city! paris really knows how to do hot chocolate!

an american in paris

oh paris i missed you so much!! it had been two years since i was last in the city of lights and words cannot describe how eager i was to get back! for those of you who may not know, paris has a very special place in my heart. i first visited paris with my family when i was in middle school when i barely knew the phrase "je vourdrais un croissant" but that didn't stop me from instantly falling in love with it. i then made a stop here for two weeks with a youth travel group just before my sophomore year of high school and i think we can all guess where i decided to study abroad when i was a junior in college. paris is one of those places where i will always feel at home and this time i was ready to do it right (aka for instagram).
