Wandering through Places and Moments
Firenze – the capital of Tuscany. What is it about this city that makes it so beautiful? Is it the people? Its streets? Its art and history? Probably all of those things, in addition to its food. Museum buffs and Italian Renaissance art nerds love…
Earlier today, I shared some of my Paris photos that were more reminiscent of cartes postales (postcards). With this post, I’ll share some photos that are less stereotypically Paris (at least in the Tourist Imaginary), but are still very much Paris (and still a little…
What is it about streetlamps and lampposts that make them so charming? I love these practical yet beautiful lights that line the streets (or stick out of buildings), illuminating the way for nighttime explorations. I particularly enjoy seeing older streetlamps, complete with some spider webs,…
Bonjour, blogosphere! I’m back from my trip back to Paris (and several other parts of France + Florence), and excited to share photos and tidbits with you. I always feel at home à Paris, and this trip was no different. A perfect mix of brusque…

Bonjour! Today, I’m starting the “Paris Picks” series where I focus on one theme and write about my favorites. I’m starting it off by sharing my two cents about Paris museums (musées, en français). Though I haven’t stepped foot in the City of Lights for about three…
