Midnight in Paris.



Did you know? Over here, Woddy Allen's new movie is out in cinemas: a romantic comedy set in Paris! I already have too much on this week to have time to go to the movies but I will be shooting over there first thing Monday evening to check it out.

And speaking of Paris, you may have noticed that I created a new category on my blog a couple of months back called "Paris city guide". It is pretty scarce at the moment but I will, in the near future, start posting more about some my favourite spots in town*. I enjoy so much receiving e-mails from readers asking for recommendations on things to do in Paris but I am mostly crap at replying. I was bad enough as it was before, but motherhood has permanemtly damaged any sense of time I had left. As my friends and family know by now, if I don't reply to e-mails immediately then you'll probably never hear back from me (I might be exagerrating a little when I say "never" but you get my point). That's my reality at the moment: running after time, counting every minute, trying endlessly to find my wonder woman outfit. So to avoid my silence "sounding" rude, I thought you'd be happy to find some Parisian treasure on my blog instead. And of course, it goes without saying that I'd love to hear some of the places you've visited in Paris and which you would like to recommend to me!

*note that my days as a party animal are over, so if you are looking to find out more about the Parisian night life, you will be disappointed. These days, I'm more interested in finding secret cafés and yummy restaurants than the latest trendy bar & club. Times have changed!

  2. adoro PAris e será um prazer ver esse filme que com certeza vai demorar ainda para chegar por aqui... aliás, gostaria de aproveitar para perguntar sobre a polêmica do véu para as mulheres mulçumanas. A França está aplicando a multa realmente? Outra coisa... você fica muito chateada se eu continuar escrevendo em português? Tenho sido meio folgada...

  7. Ahh, great to hear it! Heading to Paris in two weeks and really need some insider info as the last trip we took there was a bit hit & miss as we didn't do much research. Looking forward to it! Also - I love Woody Allen, off to see if the movie will be shown in Ireland now : )
