PARIS

Next stop on my little dose of frenchieness was Paris. It's ridiculously easy to get from Bordeaux to Paris and pretty cheap too if you book online using 'idtgv'. The train is completely direct and stops only at Paris, taking just about 3 hours. Perfect. 

I stayed with OB, a friend from Leeds, in her gorgeous, very french and parisian apartment in Saint-Germain-Des-Pres in the heart of Paris and did lots of lovely frenchie things once again.

Highlights of the trip were definitely cruising around the Marais and going to the Musee Rodin and seeing Rodin's masterpieces, followed by the Henry Moore exhibition, which should have definitely been visited before Rodin as his big fat blobs are nothing in comparison to the frenchman himself.

Loved loved loved the kiss and his rougher work, where you can see the stone that he has carved the figures from.


Some of them were very rude. GREAT.
