to five weeks in my favourite city… Paris. 🇫🇷✨
One day I’ll actually post all the pictures, but for now, I just want to express how deeply grateful I am for this incredible city… a place where beauty abounds, and where beauty is truly celebrated.
I got to spend five weeks living in Montmartre, this magical little village and artists’ haven perched above Paris. And Paris was truly medicine.
I booked the trip with only a few days’ notice. I had just found my new home in London but needed somewhere to live in the interim, so I took a leap of faith and went to Paris. Because why not?
Thank God I did ✨✨✨
Luckily, I speak French, and I have actually never been treated so well in my life. People were warm, generous and unbelievably kind to me. Random compliments from strangers. Store clerks going out of their way to help. Designer boutiques spontaneously giving me discounts. I felt so welcomed and appreciated everywhere I went 🥰
The food is epic. The architecture. The fashion. The attention to detail. And I LOVE that Parisians understand having high standards… and actually celebrate them. Thank gosh. We vibe in this regard lol😂
And shopping at Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche is the best ever!!
Paris, I love you.
You reminded me how healing it is to be surrounded by beauty, artistry, pleasure and people who care about doing things well.
You are medicine for the body.
Merci, Paris 🤍
