Postcards from Paris


Apparently, I have a thing for Paris this week.

I guess sitting traveling between Oklahoma, Arkansas & Texas 
can leave a girl dreaming of more exotic locals.

Go figure.

As fun as Paris was this spring,
my trip there in the July weather
reminded that the beloved city of lights
is best enjoyed in actual sunlight.

C'est magnifique!

I'm packing up my bags
and saying my goodbye
before returning back to the UK
from our trip to the States.

It's always a bittersweet time
as you say goodbye to so many people you love
and head back to your new normal.

The pro's & con's of life as an expat!

  1. You are right - it is always bittersweet. I hate saying goodbye to my family yet I'm always excited to get back 'home.'

    Safe travels back to the UK!

  2. It's such a weird feeling, isn't it? I used to cry when I'd say good-bye to my family in San Francisco, but I cried when I'd leave Paris too. Your photos make me smile. In less than a month my feet will be on parisian streets! So excited! Happy Monday and safe travels to you!

  4. You have such an eye for photography. I bet you could photograph suburbia and make it look glamorous.

    Love that love lock bridge. I saw one a few weeks ago and thought it was so sweet.

    ps... the US is sad to see you leave!

  6. Great to hear you were in Oklahoma, my hometown! It's a great place to go and visit family but doesn't compare to the more exotic places. Just got back from visiting there myself, hard to go back to my now 'normal' life but it was like a breath of fresh air. Now that I visited, I feel more ok with being gone for a little while longer. Hope you enjoyed your trip home!
