We’ll always have Paris… Part I

ParisThese will be the last two posts about the trip we took to Europe. Our last stop was the amazing and beautiful Paris, and since I have more information I will divide it in two posts. Hope you like them.

I have visited Paris before, but it was the Paris we got to see with our parents, the Paris that just seems “nice,” “beautiful,” “big,” and “worth visiting.” However, this time was different, being in the most romantic and cosmopolitan city in the world with the love of my life, made me see a different Paris. A Paris full of colors, culture, romanticism, joy, art, fashion, extravaganza, and amazing architecture and views even at night. I think this is one  of the few cities in the world that its “midnights” are worth experimenting and specially worth living once in a while. I loved this city, this is what we did and what I recommend visiting if you only have four days.

DAY #1:

– We stayed at the W Hotel near the Opera, which I completely recommend since its location is perfect, we were walking distance from almost everything or just two or three stops away on the subway. After checking in we went to have breakfast to a restaurant called Angelina, a truly Parisian gem. Angelina was founded in 1903 by the confectioner Antoine Rumperlmayer, its elegance, sophistication, and glamour make it a unique place to have breakfast, and lunch among the locals and tourists. Its trademarks to enjoy are: African hot chocolate composed of three different African cocoa, and the Mont Blanc, a light meringue with whipped cream and chestnut paste.

Vienna in two days…

Vienna in two days

During our trip to Europe, we took four days to visit Vienna and Prague, two of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen in my life. This post will be about Vienna, even though we were only there for two days we got to see almost everything or at least the most important and emblematic things of the city. As we did with the other cities, we took the Tour Bus for sightseeing and just stop and walk through the gardens, which were astounding.

Day 1:

The fist day we arrived to the hotel, which was just in front of the opera, and 5 minutes away of all the shopping and Vienna City Center. The hotel name is Le Meridien, I fully recommend it, the rooms are spacious and extremely comfortable. After checking in we went to the Vienna State Opera, sadly we couldn’t see the traditional opera because they close for the months of July and August and have different performances. We walked through the City Center, where the tourist shops and high end stores are held, all the way to St Stephen’s Cathedral. We continued walking all the way to Belvedere Castle and the Botanical Gardens, which were amazing and beautiful, there was a path with Tree Roses that made me remember Alice in Wonderland.

20140803-013155-5515044.jpg

Hello my dear readers!! Daniel and I are going to Europe for our 5th year anniversary. I’m excited, specially since I haven’t been in any of the cities we are visiting except for Paris. I will try to make small posts about the things I find, restaurants, places to visit, local stores, and lifestyle.
We will take a cruise first so I’ll probably be tech free for a week but after expect all the information I can get. I’ll be going to Rome, Prague, Vienna and Paris so if you have any recommendations for me I’ll appreciate it. Thank you so much for reading!!!!

Hola!!!!! Daniel y yo vamos a Europa de viaje de aniversario! Estoy súper emocionada, especialmente porque no conozco ninguna ciudad de las que vamos a visitar, excepto por París. Tratare de hacer posts pequeños de toda la información que encuentre, restaurantes, tiendas locales, estilo de vida y lugares que valen la pena conocer y visitar.
Primero vamos a un crucero entonces no tendré internet por una semana, pero después de eso les pasaré todo lo que tenga. Después de ahí vamos a Roma, Praga, Viena y París así que si tienen lugares que me puedan recomendar se los agradecería muchísimo!!! Millones de gracias por leer!!!
