Our Paris in springtime

April 2011. Our so well planned 2.5 week trip to Japan was of course cancelled due to the horrible tragedy that hit the east coast there a few weeks earlier. So… what emergency trip could we come up with on such short notice… during spring… not so far away… for relaxing but still a lot of fun… OF COURSE! Why not go to Paris??

Paris delivered everything you can imagine. Romance (well, of course, since I was there with Andreas), sunny days and warm evenings, trees in bloom, lots and lots of coffee at cosy cafés, great architecture, a cultural boost, wonderful food… I could go on and on. But I think I’ll show you instead!

Själv skall jag till en by i Ungern några veckor i sommaren. Får se vad det blir.
