April in Paris .... remember that?!
What could be more romantic than a trip to Paris in the month full of blossoms and the promise of Spring.
Today, a couple of suggestions to enjoy in the capital next month ... on a romantic theme ....
First of all the romantic hideaway .... coming home to your own little apartment on the left bank is way more romantic than checking into a big hotel. How about either of these love nests, beautifully furnished and rented out by my friends at Haven in Paris.
Just imagine padding around here in the morning, taking your time, listening to Paris waking up ...
The beauty of staying in an apartment is that you feel you are part of the neighbourhood; imagine yourself a true Parisian. In the morning you slip out to buy fresh croissant from the boulangerie on the corner .... come back to the apartment, and plan your day comfortably over breakfast .... and at the end of the afternoon, you come 'home' to rest, shower, open some champagne ..... before going out to dinner
Now what to do with your romantic afternoon? ..... Paris is a city to walk around. To soak up the atmosphere, to savour. Of course you can take in a museum or the Eiffel Tower, but more enjoyment may be had sticking to St Germain and maybe picking out a painting to take home at one of the many little art galeries along the rue de Seine.
and when you feel like a rest, then stop at a favourite Parisian café, La Palette, either sitting outside and watching Paris go by, or inside where you can admire the original artwork on the walls.
And finally, the romantic place to dine? It's hardly difficult to find a good restaurant in Paris, but if it were for a special and romantic occasion, then why not go to a very special Parisian address?
Lapérouse, a restaurant whose history dates back to the 18th century! How could you not feel special as you walk through those doors?
Voilà ... just a few ideas, quickly put together for you. Whatever you end up doing, I know you'll enjoy your very own April in Paris!
