paris...where to start~part 1

We left London the 29th in the late afternoon, on a train, with hundreds of others. You could feel everyone's excitement and festive spirit , New Year's Eve in Paris ha!!!

We stayed at my cousins Sebastian and his girlfriend Celine's apartment, while they spent the holiday in Argentina with his family. Two girls pretending to be french, living amongst the locals, communicating, shopping, eating and loving life...well.. in my head that's what it would be. It was dark , misty and grand.

We took a ninety  dollar cab ride to the apartment and viola! We were french! We made ourselves comfy in their incredibly charming apartment, ate the most gorgeous cheese, drank wine they left for us and passed out. 

The next morning we explored and this is what we found!                                                

Our front door, lobby and staircase. 

at our footsteps a neighborhood that met all our needs!
