Getaways

Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France
By Haleigh In Non classé

Getaways are good for the soul, and you don’t have to get far to get them. I love adventure, but sometimes I feel like there are a million new places  to get my thrills so close to home. Sometimes there’s a little getaway to look forward to months in advance, like a friend’s recent wedding in Fontainebleu. But anytime is a good time, so when a friend shows up downstairs on a Thursday morning with a car you didn’t know they had to whisk you to Saint-Germain-en-Laye for a coffee and a stroll, say yes like I did.  I live for moments like these, little glimpses of freedom outside the city limits…

    Okay, so the other day I was reading some London blogs and the photos were making me miss one of my homes so much – you’re now making me miss my French home so much too! Beautiful photos, though! x

    The color of the flowers on that bush is killing me! It’s so so beautiful! One day, one day I’ll have a beautiful experience where I get called on from outside my window, with a foreign car waiting in my driveway, with chips and waffles at midnight, and loud giggles ’till forever o’clock. Your experiences are always so fluffy, nostalgic, and beautiful!

    Mmmm…! Pain au chocolat.

    I like your snapshots of the small details, cause sometimes photos says more than a 1000 words.
