Crisscrossing Paris | Quadrillage de Paris

2.10.2014
Paris

We made it to Paris!... but before I can take leisurely strolls with my family along the quais and boulevards, we’re crisscrossing the city visiting apartments, feverishly looking for a permanent place to call home.

Along the way, there’s much to see and hear and taste. Paris never fails to satisfy and accommodate all the senses. She remains eternally beautiful and fascinating... 

I haven’t had a chance to take out my big camera, and what’s left of our stateside wares is still in transit. So for now, I hope these iPhone shots will do :)

    1. Thank you so much! So far, we've visited about 9 apartments in 8 different arrondissements... running around in the rain and cold isn't much fun, but at least we're enjoying the views :)

  4. So nice to read this updated post that you and your family arrived safely in Paris. The iPhone shots were wonderful and as a new user also, I was wondering which model took the photos. Best of luck on the apt search and hope your wares arrive safely and soon too.

  7. Beautiful patchwork showing different corners of Paris and slices of your current life! May I say that I looooove IG for its spontaneous twist and friendly and active (more than Twitter?) community? There, I said it and will see you there shortly ;-) Enjoy Paris in the meantime!
