Travel Diaries: I see London, I see France...

Hi lovely people!

This holiday season I went on a trip to London and Paris (my very first time in Europe!!!!! eeeeeek) and I want to share some of the lovely things that I saw 👁️

I started the trip off by watching Bridget Jone's Diary to really get into the ~british~ mindset. I love Bridget Jones and I also love drinking tea when I'm on airplanes. Unfortunately, I was supposed to be sleeping because this was an overnight flight.... I got like 2 hours of sleep overall. I was a v tired girl when we finally landed in London. 

After chilling for a bit, my dad and I made a trip to Tesco's!! I saw these rlly cool sodas. loving polka dots recently and I had to try cinnamon Coke because I had never seen it before in the US or Canada. I'd give it a 7.5/10

I had to do alllll the tourist-y things. I bought some magnets and more postcards than I could use in a lifetime. I don't think I've ever shopped more on a trip. If you ask nicely, I will tell you all my favorite stores (I've compiled and list with ratings and comments and everything) OR even a haul. But only if you ask nicely. 

I didn't know that London was going to be so festive! The twinkling lights were my absolute favorite.

some belts from the stussy store-- which is your fav?

I always travel with all my jewelry and accessories in dust bags (for organization and easy access). Of course my siren bag had to make the trip! + a really quick what was in my everyday bag before we head to Paris-- these items became my daily essentials

We only had two days in Paris! I saw some beautiful parisian architecture and New Years fireworks at l'arc de triumph!!!

 

 

I also practiced my french a lot (mhmmm so vrai). I wish I had more time to really soak in Paris... maybe I will sometime soon ;)

For now, I leave you with the most beautiful thing that I saw the entire trip...

Two swans, my favorite (and maybe spirit) animal, swimming in the Seine in the evening. In another life, I am one of those swans.
