Another surreal sunset in Paris as seen through the weeping willow 🌳 at the edge of IÎe de la Cité…… like watching poetry unveil in the sky in slow motion 🫠.

My version of a quiet photo 🌳🍁.
Souvenirs from a slow languorously long morning, the kind that only September seems to know how to creat 😂🍁

Its almost autumn in Paris. Officially, autumn begins from the day of autumn equinox, on September 23, 2023. And soon, the deliciously long summer evenings are going to get shorter, but on the flipside, it’ll be time to get cosy and enjoy pumpkin spice and hot chocolate.

And just like that, autumn descends slowly and sweetly in Paris 🍁☀️.
Even nature knows it needs a refresh every couple of months, then why are we so afraid of change, of newness, of shedding our old skin, of hibernating when we need to, and of growing and going on ♥️

How to enjoy a walk along the Seine. Pretend you have nowhere to be. And no one to see.
Pretend there are no deadlines waiting, no piled up to-dos.
Just you and the city and the chaos of life happening around you ☀️.

September and the bittersweet-ness of change 🍁.

September and the bittersweet-ness of change 🍁. Here’s a souvenir from a September walk in Montmartre.
There are trees in Paris 🌳that I feel like I know like the back of my hand. Trees that have become my friends. These leaves belong to one of them ♥️.
One day I’ll write about all the trees in Paris who are my friends. Would you read 😅?

The goddess ruminates on these ever-fleeting September days 🌳.

This statue by José Clara instituted in Place Mage, Saint-Etienne, Toulouse is a replica of the original work by the sculptor. Called “Déesse” meaning goddesses, this sculpture is a glorious example of the Catalan Noucentism movement. It is dated to 1909.

The statue was gifted by the artist to the city of Toulouse in 1930 to thank the place where he learnt art as a student in the School of Fine Arts.

Heading towards the weekend 🚲. The colour palate seemed fitting considering the in-between-ness of September.
Im out here drinking cold smoothies in hot weather while ironing my trench-coat for the impending glorious autumn weather 🍂

Restaurant Le Robinson has a quaint charm, which blends a uniquely romantic, magical and artistic aesthetic.

🌳Surrounded by lush garden, banana and bamboo trees, and majestic bougainvilleas, this places a true hidden gem unlike any I have visited in France.
🌊Right by the river Tarn, it also offers a stunning view of the historic city of Albi. You almost feel like you’re marooned in a green oasis of art and tranquility.
🍽️Food: They offer a vegetarian buffer, along with tea and desserts.
📍Address: Le Robinson 142 Rue Edouard Branly 81000 Albi, South of France

Sometimes taking a wrong turn is necessary to end up where you’re meant to be ♥️.
I came across this passage in Montmartre after getting lost. And yes, since I am horribly directionally challenged, it happens a lot! 😎 I used to be embarrassed about it before, but now, I have come to love that about me: That I get to be lost and take a million detours to arrive at places I wouldn’t have if I stuck to the lanes I knew.
And it teaches you patience 😅. Also, what a privilege it is to be able to get lost 🌻.

An unforgettable walk with an unforgettable view.

An unforgettable walk with an unforgettable view. Najac is a medieval village in the Aveyron department in the south of France.
The main road that the village is built around, offers an unparalleled view of the fortress of Najac, as you make your way up there.
There are charming, postcard-worthy moments strewn across the whole village. Lush forests surround it.
A historic gem, and officially designated as one of the most beautiful villages of France.

📍Najac, Aveyron, Occitanie
