MERCI

I've received a few emails from my readers this month wondering if I could recommend any shopping/stores in Paris. 

Unfortunately, my time in Paris was pretty limited, I didn't actually explore the shopping as much I would have wanted to BUT I did make time for this one...

MERCI. A concept store located in the district of Haut-Marais.

Located on many floors, you will find everything from fashion, design items, amazing furniture, lighting, quirky kitchen appliances, colourful bedlinen and even cool things for your garden. 

I literally spent 3 hours in here. And they've got the most beautiful café downstairs serving the most incredible cheese cake. So here you go... my top tip for a great shopping experience in Paris. Seriously, check it out.

They're online too.

MERCI

BARÇA PART II

More pics and more Barcelona favourites; La Boqueria. You don't even need to enjoy food to fall in love with this indoor food market. The colours, the smells, the hussle and bussle from the people make this place incredible.
 Basilica de la Sagrada Familia is another must if you're planning on visiting the city. It's pretty extra ordinary. But my best tip as always..... is to just walk that city. 

the bow.

Is working it's way back in to my life again. 

BARÇA PART I

A good weekend.
Spent some sunny hours in Parc de Ciutadella. An incredible park that is a must if you visit Barcelona. Drank some sweet mojitos on Barceloneta Beach and strolled around Parc Güell, you know the crazy architectural garden created by Antoni Gaudi. Met up with a friend in the evening and drank a number of cocktails and shots and experienced some original bars ... Viva España! It's been fun.
