I had already realized it last time I paid a call to London. There are a lot of red details everywhere. I got fascinated by these spry dashes of energy. They couple up to marvel with the vast, dark to light panoply of brick-walled buildings. London’s calling – hop on the red ride!
We took a stroll over to the northern tip of Regent’s Park, in northern London, a picturesque area named Primrose Hill. Quaint pastel-colored Victorian townhouses and flourishing vegetation. A true daydream. From the 78-meter high Primrose hilltop you can get an amazing view over downtown London.
My enchanting ramblings about continue… tomorrow at dawn my best Parisian pal Sarah and I are heading up to London for a gals weekend out. On the program, the Tate Modern and the Tate Britain – comes as a no surprise that I absolutely feast on the former, all in doting on the latter too. Equally in view is a stopover at the Saacthi Gallery – some more modern art, a musical – we’ll get our places cheap on the same day since Sarah knows where to go, drinks at an inviting looking pub – we’ll choose one the go, and of course a dash of shopping as well as a Sunday stroll over to the Camden Hill park.
My lil’ skip over to Helsinki was like a nice chilled glass of supreme sparkling wine – tasty, bubbly and intense in emotions. I woke up at 4 on Saturday morning, arrived in Helsinki at midday, hurried over to my brother’s wedding ceremony… and the Sunday after just chilled and bonded with family. We had a classy brunch at a nearby hotel follewed by a stroll along the Baltic Sea side.
I’ll be flying to Helsinki, Finland, on early Saturday morn’. The reason – my dear younger brother is getting married. This will be a very spry sojourn, since I’ll head back to Paris first thing on Monday. I’ve actually grown to like the idea of my lil’ escape from the ever so brilliant Parisian buzz. Tomorrow night after work, I’ll throw together some fun apparel, and just enjoy time with family.
Lately I’ve been swimming in some deep waters. There just seem to be things, nothing serious really, that are eating on my spirits. I try to live up to the mood swing challenge by concentrating on little pleasures. Chocolate is something that I love, from many point of views. I love its ambrosial smell, its covetous look, its angelic creamy texture as well as the forbidden fruit side to a choc’o escape.
