One of the places I promised I’d return to is London. I was fortunate enough to have went last 2013, and all the more lucky coz my visa arrived at literally the last minute (my flight was that same night!), but it was rather short and I didn’t get to get my hands (and boots!)…
ONE YEAR AGO: TRAINRIDE TO LONDON
So this ends the one year ago series. It was quite challenging to post everyday considering I don’t normally do that. And yes, this particular post is quite delayed. Ssh! Hehe! So anyway, after 5 amazing days in Paris, we headed to Gare du Nord to catch our train from Paris to London. London posts…
ONE YEAR AGO: LE BRISTOL
If you’ve been reading my blog since Day 1, you’ll know how much I love Paulo Coelho. In his novel The Zahir, the protagonist and his wife would meet up at Hôtel Le Bristol for hot chocolate and catching up after one of them arrives home from a trip abroad. He wrote about it so…
ONE YEAR AGO: LOUVRE
On our fourth day in Paris, the fourth grader in me was jumping up and down because I finally got to see the Louvre. You see, back then, I religiously watched the Filipino-dubbed Anime Sanjūshi or Three Musketeers everyday after school. I would park my butt in front of the tv, eat my merienda, and watch…
ONE YEAR AGO: CHILL SUNDAY IN PARIS
Pretty awesome view, right? I mentioned about our room’s view in passing here, yes folks, the Eiffel tower can be seen from our room’s mini-balcony. We stayed in Citadines Tour Eiffel along Boulevard de Grenelle and I highly recommend this apart-hotel coz of the location. La Motte-Picquet-Grenelle station is literally at your doorstep and 3(!) metro lines go…
ONE YEAR AGO: VERSAILLES
On our second day, Ingrid and I took the train to the lovely town of Versailles to visit the royal château and gardens. Word to the wise, this place is massive!! We didn’t get the chance to go inside the Trianon and Marie Antoinette’s estate as it closes at 5.30pm, and it was a quite…
ONE YEAR AGO: DAY 1 IN PARIS
{topshop dress, promod coat} We wasted no time on our first day in Paris. Ingrid and I dropped our bags at the hotel, ogled at our view, and then went on to explore the city with our highschool friend, Mia, who was studying in Nantes but was kind enough to come down and show us…
ONE YEAR AGO: A TRAVEL THROWBACK SERIES
On this day, one year ago, I embarked on my #europe2013 adventure. Since I’ve never shared it on the blog before, I figured that for this week, I’d post photos from the same day last year. Starting with our 11pm flight out of Singapore last March 21, 2013. Buckle up folks, this is gonna be…
