After the short trip from Amsterdam to Paris in the very comfortable train, we decided to take the city by surprise and see as much as possible before the working part of the journey would start.

We arrived mid day and made our way to the rental we had booked. It was nice and cozy enough for the short time we were spending in Paris. It seemed like a good idea to take a walk and get some food. The truth be told, distances seem shorter when you’re inside a taxi than actually walking.

Well, we walk and walk and walk some more. The streets are so nice and we just felt like stretching our legs after the train ride. We ended up in a French-Chinese Restaurant, very nice if I may add to the description. Food was also great, digested all my food in the walk back to the apartment. I wished I had ordered more to go, so I could have a snack while watching the rain from the balcony. oh so romantic! Love Paris, even in the rain!

The next day, up we were to go see the Museums and do some shopping. I don’t think I had ever walked that much in my entire life. I was so tired, I couldn’t even think about food, and if you know me you would know that never happens. I love food, all types of food and for me not to feel hungry I was just that tired.

Finally, the day came and we were heading to the shows. That was all good and all but first we needed to find where the shows were located. hahah. Life is never easy but still we had to try. We miss 2 shows and made one, then went back to the Apt for some invitations we forgotten and also to take extra equipment. Again, we miss another show but made the last one of the day.

We waited in a cafe, coffee house near the venue. I found the place where the show was going to happen so interesting. Totally didn’t see it walking by, it was like a repurposed garage, now with a very trendy outlook. Wow, I thought, w/o the invitation with the address and map I would have never guess where this how would have been at. The models were arriving, the guest were also there, we were chilling at the coffee house and finally pop for the show. The show was late, which I was told it happens very frequent. I had no problems waiting since it was the last show of the day and we were prepping for the after party.

Well, needless to say, we got lost and didn’t make the party but for sure next time we’ll make it.
