This break without Social Media is making me think a lot about what should I do next with regards to my online activity upon returning. Writing to you now from the Isle of Marguerite, where I see that you don’t really have to go to the other side of the world to find paradise, although I am all in for travelling. A corner of paradise is, after all, what we create for ourselves.
There is a restaurant in the 8th arrondissement in Paris, Noto, that I always wanted to tell you about. Haven’t had the chance to try it yet, but I really want to go, as I recently visited the small town of the same name, in Sicily, a polished city with beautiful palaces.
SICILIA HAS BEEN in my heart since long ago―I have always wanted to take a little tour to discover this beautiful side of Italy.
It depends on how many days you decide to stay, but it is not hard to cover the region while stopping at the most iconic places on the island.
The Allis lounge and bar at Soho House Chicago is one of those places that is immediately noticeable on your Instagram feed, with its grand proportions and chic juxtaposition of industrial ceilings and concrete pillars with crystal chandeliers, velvet sofas and beautiful herringbone flooring ...
In the middle of the craziness of the week, we made the decision to leave Paris for a few hours, to change the view, the ideas, to discover a new neighbourhood and new tastes.
Despite being a new beginning of the year, filled with so much hope and so many new ideas, rarely does the month of January bring only joy. January—it’s the month of sales, people are tired of shopping and of queues, of agglomeration, of the grey days. Keeping a good mood may be a challenge.
Maybe this year there were more lows than highs, or maybe all of your resolutions weren’t accomplished, maybe some projects haven’t seen the light of day, or perhaps everything was just perfect. The most important thing is that we are all trying and that we are not giving up.
The last few days I have been watching the beauty of fall from my cosy rustic cabin back in my home town. Being back in Paris now, my mind keeps drifting to the emerald lake we visited and the colourful forests I have seen during the time I’ve spent there. Here there is no crackling fire, but certainly these two places are a perfect choice for a cosy lunch or dinner with some incredible Parisian views between the working days ...
If you are in Paris these days, you will notice a slightly different vibe in the air. Influencers, editors, models have taken the streets of Paris and are presenting the latest trends in the most creative ways. If you're here for the shows or to people watch, there are a few places in the city to go during these busy Fashion Week days and enjoy breakfast or lunch.
Walking in the sunset light the other day I suddenly realised how quiet and empty my busy neighbourhood has become. Like every year, most Parisians are leaving for their Summer Holidays and quite a melancholic ambiance has fallen over the city.
IF THERE EVER were a place made of Instagram dreams, this is the place.
