'I don't like cities but I love NY'

My best friend, Megan, who I am living with, has been interning at the Metropolitan Opera NY for the past 5 weeks. She regularly keeps me updated with her whereabouts such as attending NYFW, going to the Opera and where she is dinning (lucky ey?).  And all this made me think about our time, 2 years ago, when Megan and I went to New York for 2 weeks. What a fabulous time we had.

For the first couple of days, we stayed in the Hamptons where there was a pool and Jacuzzi; perfect for getting over the jetlag. We then hit the city, which blew my mind and shopped, dined and visited plenty of museums. We managed to go and see the McQueen exhibition, Savage Beauty, where we queued for 6 hours(!!!!)…but boy was it worth it! We walked a lot and saw all the monuments and we even got to see Sister Act on Broadway (love musicals!!) I am totally reminiscing about my time there. Here are a few photos…

ps. Popping into Shake Shack ofc!

Nous sommes les soeurs jumelles...

Je suis tres desolée d'avoir été MIA ces jour ci but I have recently arrived back from a fabulous long weekend in Paris! It has been 6 months since my last visit and oh mon dieu the city still manages to blow me away. I arrived Thursday evening and took le metro straight away to visit my Mexican best friend and upon arrival she served me homemade nachos...gracias amiga ;) Friday was spent visiting museums and paying a quick visit to my old host family. It was great seeing the children and my old home...surreal! Croissants were on the breakfast menu Saturday and the rest of the day Adria and I ventured to Galerie Lafayette and did un peu de shopping! Sunday, we went to see the YSL movie paying tribute to one of the greatest artists of the century, a definitively must see! We then went back home and scoffed our faces with nutella crepes as it was La Chandeleur in France (pancake day)...Miam. After an amazing weekend, I reluctantly took an early train back to London and arrived on time for my 11am lesson. Why cant I commute back and forth to Paris every weekend? Who knows...maybe I will.

 

Adria and I in front of Sacre Coeur...My fav place.
