Bonjour les gars,
You might know this already, and if you didn't you know now: I'm in love with Paris - like really really really really in love.
The love story began around the 3rd time I visited Paris, and ever since somehow from the moment I set foot in this city I become this much happier version of myself, and I like the me I become when I'm here. I'm much more relaxed, I take life as it comes and I can be perfectly happy with the smallest things you can imagine. Sometimes it feels like I was born to be une parisienne , I act like one and I just feel so at home here, it just feels so right when I'm walking down the streets, taking te metro or ordering un café.
The craziest thing happend to me a couple of weeks ago. As most of you guys, I also have an instragam account and as most of you guys I follow people I don't know. Since some time now i've been following a girl from Paris named Fiona, she's like my Parisian twin sister (that speaks french instead of dutch and has brown hair instead of blonde). When I came to paris in February, I asked her for some new places to visit and of course which exhibitions I had to see since she litterlly goes to all of them. Months passed by and we kept talking from time to time. Then, one day after I added her on Facebook since it's easier to talk, she told me that if I was planning on visiting Paris in the summer she had the keys to her friends apartment and if I wanted to I could stay there. Of course I immediately started flipping out of happiness and it didn't take me long to realise chances like these don't come often. I took the opportunity and booked a ticket to Paris to sleep in an appartement of a girl I don't know and to meet with a girl I have never met in my whole life and where I just have talked with on Instagram. Talk about an adventure!
Luckily I didn't get raped or kidnapped, better yet this trip turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made because Fiona is an amazing girl & her friend Julliete is also incredible. Having my own apartment in Paris for a week made me feel like a real Parisienne more than ever. Now I can truly say that I have some parisienne's that I can call my friends. I had a blast being in Paris for those 4 amazing days, meeting this two girls.
Here is how it went down;
A fresh glass of Lillet on a Parisian 'terasse' is all you need on a beautiful summer day! You made me miss Paris, love the blog keep it up!
