My Trip to Paris

BY Jen

If you follow me on social media, you know I was recently on a trip to Paris. It was amazing! Such a fun, beautiful, bustling city. We rented an amazing Airbnb apartment. The building was built in the 17th century and was in Les Marais (which I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an area to stay). We did some touristy stuff (museums, eiffel tower, etc.) but my favorite part was just walking around the city…looking in store windows, sitting at cafΓ©s sipping coffee, strolling through open air markets. We also did a day trip to Normandy which I really enjoyed. We toured some historical WWII sites, and the countryside is beautiful. Here are some photos from our amazing trip.

    Paris is my favorite city! Touristy things are fun, but you’re right, walking around the city and sitting in cafes is the best part! Your photography is gorgeous. I hope you had a wonderful trip! :)

      It’s one of my favorites now too! I definitely want to go back and spend less time doing touristy stuff and more time just taking in the city.

    So glad you enjoyed Paris… I mean, how could you not?! But seriously, Le Marais is the best spot to stay in… perfect for food, shopping and wandering around.

  27. Sounds like an incredible trip! And WOW your Airbnb is gorgeous! What a place to call home while in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Your photos really capture its charm. I love the little details like the flowers for sale, the building covered in plant life, and the narrow little streets. Was that photo taken in Le Marais as well? What a pretty little area.

    Normandy sounds like a treat as well. I have not been yet but hope to do so one day!
