A year ago, I embarked on the greatest adventure of my life and after a quick stop in Iceland (for the most magical time at the Blue Lagoon) I landed in Paris after a lifetime of dreaming about it. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about that trip and long for a fresh baguette and a cafe au lait under the Eiffel Tower.
Today, I thought I’d share some of the unseen photos from my trip that I still scroll through on my phone with hearts in my eyes.
If you love Paris, hopefully this post will bring you back too!
the first moment I saw the Eiffel Tower in person – I was totally crying
the champs de elysee
so much color. so much pretty.
afternoon snack on the lawns of versailles
palais versailles
the most magical bookstore
views from the notre dame cathedral
paris streets
views from below
old crypts in père lachaise cemetery
elephant love song anyone?
sacré-coeur on the nicest day
no such thing as too many photos with the eiffel tower
evening cruise on a bateaux mouche
views from the top
the famous louvre
parisian nights
reading and people watching over wine at dinner every night
bon soir paris
Paris was everything I dreamed it to be and then some, which is probably why it still feels so magical a year later and will stay with me always (or at least until my next visit!)
Love Paris too? I’d love to hear what your favorite spot in Paris is!
Today I’m off camping in the woods with some best friends – follow along on Snapchat (crystalcrichard) or on Instagram @crystal_catherine! Have an awesome weekend! x
