I have two minimum guaranteed trips to Paris every year. One in the brutally cold month of January and the other in the warmth of September. Not that I am complaining! I love Paris is any weather. I have gotten a lot of curiosity about Paris and thought it was high time to do a post. Firstly, I go to Paris for Maison et Objet which is held bi annually (end January and mid September). My attendance at the design show is in relation to a portfolio re-startup company called Hudson. Secondly, Paris is a wonderful city for a perspective reset. I get a personal and professional perspective reset and motivation for the next few months. Here is what a typical day looks like in the City of Lights: 06:00 am Wake up and run on the Seine embankment with Shiraz.
08:00 am Double shot of espresso and a croissant from any local bakery. IF we have the time we may have a sit down breakfast at L'Avenue. 09:00 am Head to the Maison et Objet show.

02:30pm Monsieur Bleu for lunch. With views of the Eiffel Tower and delicious food a separate post on the restaurant is definitely coming soon.
04:00 pm: Coffee with my ex-colleague at Plaza Athenee. We get to catch up on business and politics.
04:30 pm Shopping at Galleries Lafayette. You may think this is just another department store but it is stocked extremely well and I particularly like the VAT Refund that shopping in the Europe allows. This is awesome in the winter when it gets dark early and too cold to stroll outdoors.
