Paris Trip: The Louvre Part II

Aphrodite of  Milos
















Hi guys, how are you?Hope you'll all doing great. I haven't post lately on the blog but today I feel inspired. I know many of us were heartbroken about what happened in Paris. I am sincerely hoping for peace not just in France but in the whole world especially countries in Europe, Middle East Asia and Africa that are currently having terrorist crisis.  Anyway, back to the main topic of this post, I want to continue talking about my experience at the Louvre.

Paris Trip: The Louvre Part I

The Louvre, museum,  Paris Trip


If there is one place I wish I had more time to visit, it's this beautiful museum. Louvre is more than just the pyramid structure you see outside.  A collection of treasures from different parts of the world are displayed inside. I don't think you have to be an art or history lover to appreciate the place. I admit that my knowledge in history is limited but my boyfriend is a history buff, therefore the place is like a "heaven" for him. A day is not enough to see everything inside the museum but I don't think a person would love to stay there the whole day. You'll need a break because it could be an overwhelming place even for an art enthusiast! I believe that it is a place that you have to visit more than once and spend an adequate time each tour.

The Palace of Versailles Part III - Grand Trianon, Petit Trianon and the Queen's Hamlet


Trianon Palaces, Versailles Garden, The Queen's HamletIt's time to share the third part of our day trip to the Palace of Versailles! This is by far my favourite part of our tour. I was impressed by the main palace's grandeur, fell in love with the magnificent gardens but my visit to the Trianon Palaces and the Queen's Hamlet tops them all. If you have more time, don't miss out on these parts of the estate. They also play a huge part of the royal history of France and there are many incredible things waiting for you to discover, they are not just a drop in the bucket of the Palace. :)  My boyfriend visited Versailles before but only had the chance to see the main palace and he (a hard to please type of person) was impressed to see these other parts in the domain of Versailles. We bought a 1 day passport ticket for €25 each person and it gives you an admission to all the places except for some guided tours. It's €15 for a ticket if you only want to see the main palace, but the additional €10 is really worth it. We are absolutely spellbound by the beauty of it all!

Fall/Autumn Diary
























Fall is a beautiful season that fills our senses with so many beautiful things. It's a season I always look forward to every year because there's many holidays or events that are celebrated such as Thanksgiving, Halloween and you start to feel the Christmas spirit. Before this beautiful season ends, I want to share the little things I love the most about fall or autumn:
