friday’s five interesting finds online – vol. one

Here I go again, revamping something I’ve done years ago. Sharing with you all a few interesting finds online.

1. I go to Paris at least once a year, and during my trip I shop at Monoprix for all of my snacks, and bottled water and so on. I actually look forward to doing that. So, here’s a story about Monoprix and how I will never venture out into their basements. Although it is an interesting find:

2. Twenty-Five things I didn’t know about Breakfast at Tiffany’s was an article I stumbled upon while looking up information about George Peppard-at the time the handsome actor who portrayed Holly’s love interest in the film. I was using his portrayal as research for my next novel. Anyway, here are the facts if you are interested.

3. Flight MH370 disappeared nearly a year ago (3/8/2014) and its story the most daunting. Still today, we have no idea what happened, and all of us rely on speculation, although deep down we all have a pretty good idea as to what really happened. We may have to wait for twenty years to get a confession:

4. On a much lighter note, The Sound of Music turns 50 this year. The film is the first one I saw as a young girl, realizing right away I wanted to go into acting. I longed for the dream, but never pursued it. Too many things got in the way, but I will never stop appreciating the film for opening my eyes to a world of possibilities-the arts and entertainment industry:

5. Hidden gem hotels of San Francisco is an article I couldn’t resist scrolling through to find out if the suggested gems in my city where truly the gems of the city, for hotels that is. I am on the fence about the list because I can’t consider any of these hotels a gem. They are nice, but not a gem. But then again you may disagree:
