wine & cheese

On Michelle and Emmanuela's last day in Paris, we decided to have a proper Parisian snack. This included some fromage (cheese), pâté, salami, fruit, a baguette and of course wine. Bon appétit!

moulin rouge

I went to a place called The Phone House (it's like their AT&T store) to buy a prepaid phone, I didn't realize Moulin Rouge was just around the corner. That was a pleasant surprise.

my first dinner 

I was exhausted from my red eye flight to Paris and barely slept. So by the time I got to my apt and unpacked, I was ready for a nap. While I slept, it rained and quickly cleared up. Luckily, I got this shot outside of my balcony.

 

Soon after I walked around my neighborhood and found this church.

Then I had my first meal, at this restaurant called P'tite Bougnate I ordered a quiche (one of the few things that I recognized on the menu!)

my paris apt

I was so lucky to find this great apt/room to rent for my stay in Paris. While searching on Airbnb, I saw these great pictures, so of course I had to click and take a look. Caroline and Nicolas rent out two of their bedrooms in their Haussmanian style flat. I'm currently staying in their white room. The whole apt has a balcony wrapped around it so there is great light and fresh air. It is a welcomed change from my NYC apt.
