Why Paris?
Since I was 12 and visiting I just got this amazing feeling and knew I was meant to live in Paris, and I wanted to learn french.
Where to stay?
Hotel Rochechouart. You either get a room with a view over the Sacré Coeur, or to the cutest Parisian little street, or the Eiffel tower, so you really can't get it wrong.
Where to Dine & Drink
Billili - Perfect for a glass of wine and trying some reworked traditional french dishes. This is truly a hidden gem that is not taken over by tourists, they don't even have an instagram.
136 Rue du Faubourg Poissonnière, 75010 Paris.
Early June - They change chefs every month, and usually they're all really great. It's a great people spotting place, too. Best to book in advance.
19 Rue Jean Poulmarch, 75010 Paris.
Hando Parisian handrolls - A perfect spot for date night. One of the best sushi I've had in Paris.
25 Rue Danielle Casanova, 75001 Paris.
Fauna Café - Swedish plates
Where to Shop
- Nuovo
- Printemps second hand on the 7th floor
- My vintage shop Rent Club hehe
- Chez Snow Bunny
- Les Archives Paris
Things to do:
- Have a stroll in Palais Royal & matcha at Kitsuné, or work on your glutes and go up and down the stairs in Montmartre & enjoy the view at the same time! Also love the workouts at Burning Bar at the moment.
- As a Swede I'm always looking for the best Scandi breakfast plates, and I've found it at Fauna café, the owner is Swedish, so it makes sense!
