I can't apologize enough for my long absence.
After spending two weeks in Paris, I was back for a month then I went back to Paris and spent the rest of my summer there!
There are so so so many things I'd love to say about Paris. The places I visited, the food I ate, the people I met, the little things I discovered and everything I grew to love.... I should've kept a record of these when I was there! All that's left are fuzzy memories that I'm struggling to preserve in my head.
I will post some photos in an attempt to revive this space, and to demonstrate what I cannot say in words: the charm and beauty of Paris.

Despite the unrelenting sun and the unbearable heat wave, it is so difficult not to love Paris. There are so many places that one would never discover as a tourist, and I'm so blessed I had the time to explore and fall in love with the unknown sides of Paris. Every time I chanced upon a new neighborhood, a new cafe, a new sight, it always managed to take my breath away. All my good friends know that New York City is my absolute favorite city in the world, but Paris seriously gives it a run for its money hahaha!
Anyway, I'm so thankful for the amazing friends I've made, and I'm so happy to say that my French has improved tremendously!! I hope the memories I have of this beautiful city will stay perfect and untainted by time.
Please do leave a comment if you'd like a recommendation of places to visit or places to eat at in Paris!
