New Paris Tips

So I have my usual Parisian haunts that I go to every single time I am there, but this time, I mixed things up a little and did a lot of different things. Here are some random places and things I loved last weekend!

 

1. Andy Warhol Exhibit

 

This exhibit is small and sweet, but loved every minute of it. And not too busy and you don’t need tickets far in advance. it is being shown until mid January so if you have the chance to go see before, highly recommend.

One of the many beautiful Warhols.

 

2. Luxembourg Gardens

 

I haven’t spent much time in the Luxembourg gardens, but now I want to. I want to go sit and read a book, drink a coffee, explore. It was one of the most beautiful parks I have ever been to and can’t wait to return.

Look at these insane dahlias. So beautiful.

 

3. Montmartre Cafe: La Bossue

 

Went to this cafe with a friend who lives in the area, and I loved every part of it. Not just the decor (because who doesn’t love this cheeky needlepoint with florals — so up my alley), but also the food and cafe were perfection. 10 out of 10.

Holy crap these both were unbelievable.

 

4. Pere Lachaise Cemetery

 

Never have I ever visited the most popular cemetery in Paris — filled with so many celebrities and stars. It was so crazy huge and big — a park! Spooky beautiful and great to visit.

Laughed at this graffiti that was on the wall of the cemetery — hell is real.

 

5. Space Invaders around Cemetery

 

I had never been to the 20eme arrondissement, so after visiting the cemetery, spent the afternoon doing the perimeter in search of space invaders. I found 27 that day!!! SO MANY I was so proud of myself. This store front was by far my favorite.

This is the cemetery.

This is me walking alone up and down the streets searching for the invaders.

 

6. Sound Bath

 

HANDS DOWN the best sound bath experience I have ever been to. Even if you are in town for just a short time, I recommend visiting this place and checking it out. Was incredible.

Not many tourists, as one can imagine. Loved every second.

 

7. Le Bon Marche

 

Coffee.

Of course have to always visit Le Bon Marche as it is my favorite store in the world. I love looking at the ceiling and seeing the current display. So much inspiration and beauty all in one place.

 

8. Concert at Notre Dame

 

It is impossible to go to Notre Dame inside these days since it reopened, but a friend got tickets to see inside and listen. Very relaxing and beautiful.

Loved this experience.

 

9. Art Outside

 

Art is everywhere. Especially in Paris. The moon, the Cartier billboard, the bridge. I love Paris so much.

Patriotic. Loved this.

 

10. Moroccan Restaurant

 

Moroccan food that was beautiful, delicious, off the beaten path.

A beautiful terrace outside, too.
