Where To Explore Paris In Summer
My favourite moments from my time studying in Paris this Summer- many more to come! In a city offering as much as Paris, how could you stay stagnant?

Admire the view of a sparkling Pont Neuf
Pont Neuf is the oldest bridge in Paris, contrary to it's name. (Literally, it translates to New Bridge. Neuf in modern French means nine, but in older French it also means new. Nouveau is the translation for new today). During the day, my...
Good Food, Great Wine...Nap Time!
There is no better way to unwind after a day at university than to relax at a picnic with twenty or so other friends on the lawn under the Eiffel Tower. I love the beautiful summer sky in Paris - the clouds always paint such a beautiful picture.

Catch dusk under the Eiffel Tower
A lazy afternoon picnic quickly became a lazy evening under the Eiffel tower and we were rewarded with this beautiful view. The colours in this photo haven't been manipulated at all - it was really this spectacular. One of my best evenings in...
Explore the modern face of Paris
La Defense, the modern Parisian business district huddled around the impressive Grand Arche is worth a wander. Outcast from the heart of postcard perfect Paris, La Defense is bold, brilliant - and very shiny. As it's all relatively new, the glass...
Pretty afternoon in Parisian business district
Just a few minutes from the main area of Grande Arche in La Defense, this modern part of Paris too is very pretty.
Marie Antoinette's Final Moments
Once a Palace, and then a Prison, this particularly medieval building has a few claims to fame, one of which being the site where Marie Antoinette was beheaded.
Picture Perfect Paris
Views like this that are so perfect, they have to be seen to be believed. The views from a cruise on the Seine add a new dimension to Paris and I am so glad I did one!
Notre Dame
Cruising past the Notre Dame was a great way to see this icon from many angles, making photography a breeze!
Paris from the eyes of the Seine
Seine River cruises are a great way to see the beautiful sights of Paris without the walking, with a tour guide and with all the additional picturesque photo opportunities provided by the Seine's unique perspective
Seine on a Sunny Day
Cruising down the Seine on a tour boat is one of the best ways to spend a sunny afternoon in Paris!
Cruising down the Seine
I cannot recommend a Seine Cruise highly enough! Even though I had already seen most of the major sites of Paris, the perspective from the water was really special
Lover's Lock Bridge
Lovers from around the world symbolise their everlasting love on Paris's Pont des Arts, located just beside Notre Dame. Padlocks with the names of the lovebirds written on them are affixed to the bridge, and is a cute sight to see while in Ile de...
Cruising past Musee D'Orsay
I've heard great things about Musee D'Orsay and I will definitely get there this month. For now, I've only floated past during a delightful cruise on the Seine.
On the Seine in Sunny Paris
One of my trip highlights so far! I can't think of a better way to get to know Paris.
The most beautiful bridge!
Pont Alexandre III is the most beautiful bridge in Paris, and is definitely worth a look. Flanked by bright gold horses and decorated lavishly, it's especially beautiful in the summer sun
