after my semester in york, i spent a week in paris with my beloved roommate from ohio, emily. she was doing a may term in france and invited me to crash with her in paris. such a dream! it was a spectacular adventure despite random bouts of torrential rain and at times faulty directions (i blame google). some highlights include following in the steps of my favorite movie before sunset (more on that soon), church at hill song paris, amazing evening meals and catching each other up to speed on our lives, copious amounts of french bonbons and pastries and day trips to versailles and monet’s garden. everything was absolutely magical. here are a few random, quintessentially parisian pictures but get ready for a downpour of posts coming at you soon.

{this bakery got the award for the best bread in paris – first gluten i had in months!}




{a scene from before sunset was filmed here! ahhh!}
