ULTIMATE PARIS GUIDE: BEST ACTIVITIES IN PARIS

I have visited Paris many, many times. Each time borders close and reopen due to COVID it is the first place I go to. And to be honest, that is why I have put off creating this Paris guide for so long. There are so many great spots in Paris and I have so many beautiful pictures, that putting together this guide seemed too overwhelming. But, I have started the year super fresh and was finally able to finish it! So in this blogpost you will find all my Paris recommendations for museums, boroughs, shopping, food, sights & activities and daytrips!

UPDATED GUIDE WITH THE BEST EIFFEL TOWER PHOTO SPOTS

The Eiffel Tower is one of the most photographed sights in the world and this blog provides a guide with the best locations to photograph it from! Over the years I have visited these spots many times and in this blogpost you will find a combination of summer and winter pictures. Visiting these photo spots during sunrise is an absolute must, you only need to share your view with a few other people and if you are lucky the colors are spectacular. If you pin these locations on google maps, you can easily walk from one spot to the next, which will take about two hours including photo stops. I already put the spots in a logical order for you ๐Ÿ™‚

SOLO TRAVEL WITH A BABY IN PARIS: A “HOW TO” GUIDE

Even before Hugo was born I was already fantasizing about going on my first (solo) trip with him. I figured I would have the perfect travel companion, who would not have a say in the destination or the daily program, but who would just accompany me on the things that I want to do. Of course that would be oversimplifying reality and after Hugo was born I quickly realized that traveling with a newborn is much easier when you are with two adults. But, last Christmas, I received the perfect opportunity to practice solo travel with a baby, as we rented an appartment in Paris, while Hielke was working remotely. This might not exactly be solo travel, but I did learn a lot about it and in this blog I share my recommendations for traveling solo with a baby!
