My good friend Linda originally from Texas has been living in Paris for close to 10 years now and nine years ago she started a blog for her family and friends which became very popular. To celebrate her 9 years of blogging, she is giving this beautiful pendant to the winner of a drawing that you can enter by visiting her blog “Frenchless in France” under

This is a typical walk that I would take in my neighborhood. Start at Arc de Triomphe and go South on Blvd Malesherbes or Rue du Faubourg Saint Honore. We are not far from Parc Monceau here.


I love Parisian cafes especially in the morning when they are being set up and crowds have not arrived yet.

Sunflowers and a beautiful shop.


And finally, one of those wonderfully peaceful courtyards. I end up the day with a movie to make it a fabulous Parisian day !

We actually walked from Montmartre to Louvre with a few stops on the way.

After many months of renovation, the Daniel Buren sculpture is finally there to enjoy again

And if you prefer a more classic design, just walk around the corner to Place Colette.

A romantic moment “au bord de la Seine”

In that pretty garden on the side of Eglise Saint-Germain

In one of Paris many courtyards

This policeman was nice enough to let us use him as a “prop”. It makes a traditional image a little more interesting…

These statues at La Defense, area worth a detour once you have seen the “classics”.
