dreaming of paris always this time of year
Actually that’s a lie. I dream about Paris all the time. My home is French inspired decor, my music French classic. I eat the way the French do, and my fashion sense has become more and more French. The only difference to the end of winter and beginning of Spring is that I feel the need to plan a trip to my perfect hideaway. So the planning begins, in my head, then to pitch it to my travel partner, and then make it happen. You can imagine how I surf the internet. Paris, Paris, Paris and more Paris, and I love it when I stumble upon blogs or online articles adding to my craze. Here’s a good example: 1. This article talks about Instagram ready restaurant photos, and what I got from it is, how much I want to check out the restaurants. 2. This article talks about spoting cute guys on the metro.

thoughts on vacations
When I plan my annual trip, privately, and once confirmed send a global message to my co-workers announcing that I’ll be out of the office, some frown upon the fact, that I choose to travel. Although I respect their opinion, I cannot for the life of me understand how they go an entire year, without taking a single day off from work other than the usual weekends and company sponsored holidays. The ten days I spend away from the norm, not only revives my soul, it helps me think, plan and make a list of goals I would like to accomplish in the upcoming year. Not to mention the fact, gives me the courage to push for what I really want out of life.
