WE SET OUR DREAMS TO CARRY US


What is it about dreams that we want to chase them? In your mind they look like heaven,  but what happens when your dream comes true? Does it become standard?

Well these are some questions I’ve asked myself back in Holland. My stay in Paris was my dream come true, I finally could be a real Parisienne. And now I think I can say that I am. Maybe some French people will laugh at me and tell me I’m far from a Parisienne but yeah, what the *** 

So now I’m really used to live here, everything slowly becomes normal, but it is ABSOLUTELY not normal! So every day I keep saying to myself that I’m verrrry lucky to live here and experience so many cool things!

Set dreams to carry you and don’t let them become a standard thing…

Okay I’m going to the movies now! Soooo cool

Big Kisses!

INTERNET AND THE CITY


Well, hello again. Took me about two weeks to create a new movie because the internet is not working. It maybe sound a bit exaggerated but I really felt kinda lost without internet. Every day when we got home we loved to hear the beeping sounds of our Iphone’s. But last two weeks it was very quiet when we got home…

It got me thinking about some other things, off course not to have contact with the ones I love from home makes me miss them a lot. And I realized I was really addicted to internet. I always want to be online and know what everyone is doing. So these two weeks I tried to get rid of my addiction. Because I had to. There was no other option but to deal with it. So I tried to focus on the other things.

Well, a BIG telephone-bill later I know that my addiction cannot be healed. So with every minute my Wifi is working I quickly check facebook, instagram, watsapp and my email.
So enough about my internet addiction. My other addiction I have developed in Paris is my addiction to Beautiful. Everything here is beautiful, the shops, the  architecture, the fashion, the art. I feel like all this beauty feeds me in some way.

So I tried to capture some beauty and put it in a movie…

FIRST WEEK IN PARIS


This week there was not a second my face had not a smile on it…

Last week my Also-Paris –Lover Gamze and I arrived at our little apartment in Paris. My dream started! Living in Paris is sooo cool! Every day I’m thanking myself for doing this haha ;)

Arriving at our apartment at Rue des Batignolles in the 17th arrondissement with 2 cars fully stuffed with clothes and shoes we did’t knew what to expect because we did’nt saw our apartment in real life you know.
Well, it's 100 percent better than expected and we feel really at home! After unpacking and a lot of cleaning, we sat at our sofa bed, totally exhausted but with a big smile on our face;  this is our home in Paris!

So this week we needed to go to school directly. We’ve met some very nice people from different nationalities such as Mexico, Germany, Denmark and Sweden. So this week we did a LOT!
Sunday after cleaning we went to the Arc de Triomphe, not that we needed to see it but hey, we’re in Paris right? So we went for a little walk to Avenue Montaigne and did a little windowshopping at Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Cloé… What else is there to do on a Sundaynight right?

Then we had some schooldays. Friday we had a great day, we have made ourselves an engagement to eat a nice pastry at the best patisseries of Paris every week. So thats what we did, at Fauchon we bought a 7 euro pastry and it was DIVINE! Next week at Ladureé ;)

At fridaynight we went to the Louvre, I went there before but this was also a kind of school assignment so why not go there again? This was my favorite night this week, cause when we were looking at the different paintings my eye catched some snowflakes…
It was so magical! I coulnd’t stop smiling and i was so happy! It was like -5 that night but this winterwonderland warmed me…

Ow and Saturday, we went to Museé d’ Orsay. Loved the Monet, van Gogh and Rodin pieces!

Wow, what a week… Paris je t’aime.

Below our film of the first week! Have fun wathing it :)

Kisses,
