paris walk no. 3: left bank

verhext — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 18:46:39 +0000

I’ve been feeling pretty under the weather, crazy migraines and vision problems to the point where I’m essentially blind all day – I see double and can’t focus past a few feet from my face. Apparently it’s stress, but it’s so stressful to be mostly blind that it’s hard to relax. Hooray. So I’ve been [...]

Hope everyone had a delightful Sunday! This was my first weekend at home to just rest in ohhhh, over a month? A lot of walking, thrifting, a little Etsy-photo-taking, and watching the new Poirot.

I’ve never taken a train in Europe (and had [...]

paris walk no. 1: montmartre

Our first 2 hotels were in the 9th, so I spent some time wandering the 9th and Montmartre. The Rue des Martyrs is a gluttons dream, with a million gorgeous bakeries, ice cream shops, and restaurants. Perfect for exploring. We stayed in each hotel for 2 days, (sandwiched between Germany and Belgium) and this time was [...]
