London calling

I cannot believe it's been a couple of years now since I've been to London. I guess it's time to revisit the Capital and do the things I've been unable to do back then due to my young age. :) I've chosen just some typical pictures for this post. As a teenager I didn't pay to much attention to taking a 'good' picture. I followed the motto've been there. done that. snapshot!

sunday funday

I've spent my weekend in Polanica-Zdrój. Now, I'm back home, kind of tired but there's nothing like home, right? At least, that's what I was told! Anyway, wish you all a lovely Sunday. 

I've heard this song on my way home and now I cannot get rid of it and I don't even want to! :D

Venezia. Colpo di Fulmine.

Colpo di Fulmine. Love at first sight. When it comes to people I'm not sure whether I believe in it but when it comes to cities or places ... I'm sure I do! One of those places that I fell head over heels in love with is Venice. I don't know what it is but there is definitely something that makes my heart beat faster each time I'm there.

Palazzo Grimani di San Luca

Monsieur Taiclet

Walking along Quai de Montebello. Bouquinistes every few steps.
Then there's this one special wooden stall where I saw this piece of art I knew I had to have! And it's mine! :)
After chatting for a wee with this lovely gentlemen, I found out that he's the artist himself! Salut, Monsieur Taiclet! Some of the works he sells are his own paintings! Incredible right? :)

Paris: day four

Paris, Paris, Paris.
Sunday- funday, right? We decided to make a boat tour. We've seen all of the main 'touristic attractions' therefore this was like a summary for us, to way to say good bye, at least for me.
Before heading to the boat we made a short stop at Odette

Maison Georges Larnicol

I truly believe in this quote:
Nine out of ten people like chocolate. The tenth person always lies.... by John Q. Tullius
With its door wide open, the shop is literally smiling and inviting you in! Obviously, you cannot resist and enter this chocolate heaven. As soon as you walk in ...

Paris: day three

Day three. The weather decided to play against us! It was cold and windy but we decided it's time for Montmartre or should I say an Amélie Poulain feeling? :)
