A ride on the Ferris wheel has become our favorite A ride on the Ferris wheel has become our favorite (well, more mine than Laurent's) summer tradition. Six years of Geneva's grande roue and counting! 🎡

As we did not receive our invites to the Met Gala, As we did not receive our invites to the Met Gala, we decided to visit the Dior Museum instead.

For old souls inspired by fashion of the 1940s and 50s, you will be blown away by the three stories of Dior’s ‘New Look’, which opted for feminine silhouettes rather than traditional straight lines. The collection launched shortly after the liberation of Paris, a rebirth of French couture following WWII. 

The exposition changes every six months, meaning that we will surely be back again.

Address: 11 rue François Ier, Paris 8e
Price: €16

*I highly recommend reserving your tickets in advance to shorten your wait time!

Contrary to popular belief, Vienna is not all Moza Contrary to popular belief, Vienna is not all Mozart and Schubert.

If you love vintage glamour, circus acts, and the mysterious wonder that is cabaret and burlesque, Mirage may be your cup of tea.

Each night underneath the red velvet tent offers a unique set of acts accompanied by a dinner. Walking through the Prater on the way to @mirage.wien is a treat in itself, a space which welcomed the World’s Fair in 1873.

Reservations for your next trip to Vienna may be booked at: https://www.mirage.wien/en/events

Address: Prater 75, 1020 Wien

The best English student I had in France had never The best English student I had in France had never traveled outside of France. He had never even visited Paris. Yet his spoken English sounded like he had grown up in Ohio. 

How was this possible?

He had spent years watching undubbed sitcoms—especially Friends—on repeat.

When I started learning French, people thought I was a bit mad, because it wasn’t something practical that would land me a job. 

But because I thoroughly enjoyed it, learning became a consistent habit, pulling me through tough times, even 18 years in the process.

Here are few mindset shifts and habits that helped me become fluent.
