Me Jardin Massey 2

Photos are from Jardin Massey in Tarbes, my bf's hometown. In Tarbes we went hiking for Pyrenees and also visited Lourdes. I tres adored French countryside as much as breathtaking Paris. You find no dazzling architectures, no Chanel but warmhearted people make you feel that you never want to leave there.

Te quiero Barcelona

Barcelona street

Barcelona has been one of my dream cities and always been in my must-to-visit lists since I saw Spanish apartment. Too bad that bizarre weather (we were caught in an extremely stormy rain many times!) stolen a bit of colours from the usual sunny Barcelona while we were there. But how could I be bothered by such when the labyrinthine alleys and Creme Catalane totally got my heart?:)

Each small windows offered me a story and stirred up my

part of my skin

Back in the hotel room after 11 pm. Took off all the jewels. Too long shower then post card time on the bed. I didn't want to let this unbelievable day over yet.

I never forget you. I can't forget you.

hotel in Paris

So the days are already shorter, wind no more smells like the sun and my morning is already accompanied by woolen cardigan and hot café au lait. Summer is over. And I'm here again.

I just came back from Paris last week. I still dream myself walking in the town of Montmartre every night.

It'll be slow and take time but I start uploading photos from my trip very soon.

P.S.
Thank you so much for those generous friends who have kept visiting my blog while I was gone!

Big hugs,

Tell me you'll still be there

In your arms I find solace during dark times. In you, I find a vision of who I truly am and what I want to be.

12 months long, 12 months not enough. Happy 1 year anniversary!


Big Kisses,

Summer progresses

Bonjour ladies and gents!

First of all so sorry for the super long hiatus...I know I've been a terrible blogger lately; things have been a bit crazy around here and I scarcely have time to blog. As a compensation for my recent slackness, I've got a fabulous announcement for you:). I'll give you a few seconds to guess with photos taken ages ago!

Roaming the streets with a lovely friend, organic-vege lunch, laughter, cakes and coffee; in other words, a delightful day.

Despite her tied up schedule, Naoko visited me in Kobe for an afternoon fun.

I always heart her smile.

...Vintage shops never let us get bored, don't they?

Cakes can simply bring out girls' loveliest smile.

By the way I was so happy when I found out that she also has a secret passion for Korean pop culture;). They are damn good, yes?

So have you got any guess yet?

...I'm flying to France and Spain next month( and also a short visit in Vietnam)!

Let's have fun!xx
