Midnight in Paris (Woody Allen, 2011)
Hi there! It’s me again! I like this blog so much that I take every opportunity to pop in here. No, this time I’m not going to talk about another travelling experience. This time I’m going to write a review about the latest movie by Woody Allen: Midnight in Paris. First, let me tell you [...]
Paris
A year and some months ago I went to Paris for a week. As Mr. Dickens himself would say, “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times”. I have really mixed feelings towards that holiday, which might be the reason why I never even uploaded photos from it. I did write [...]
Amazing bookshops around the world: Abbey Bookshop (Paris)
Abbey Bookshop (Paris, France) 29 rue de la Parcheminerie Mon-Sat 10:00-19:00 The second time I went to Paris, visiting Shakespeare & Co. was high up on my list of priorities.

Literary Paris
It is perhaps obvious that my last two visits to Paris (March 2009 and April 2010) together with all the preliminary reading and watching I did made me fall in Love with the city a little bit. One of the things I love the most about it are all the literary connections. I love sitting [...]
