Lyon, France - Where to visit?

Image
Part two of my Lyon trip! Basically this will be dedicated to places to go and to check on your trip which include church, museums and other touristic sites! I will only be talking about my recommended ones! 1. Basilique Notre Dame de Fouvière - 8 Place de Fourvière, 69005 Lyon You might think "What's makes this church any different with the other thousands of churches in France?". Answer : style and location. The church has a Romanesque architecture with the most beautiful dark green-gold-blue ish tone mosaic all over the ceiling, walls, floor that creates the most elegant and rich ambiance. Plus it is located on top of the Fourvière hill, which offers the most breath-taking view of the city. 2. Musée Confluences - 86 Quai Perrache, 69002 Lyon This is probably recommended by a lot of people because of the architecture, which for me has a little bit of the Fondation Louis Vuitton vibe going on - btw not saying that it was copying Fondation LV since w...

Spring Break - Lyon, France

Winter's over, Internship's over, SPRING BREAK IS HERE! No complains for now (actually i'm complaining about thesis, but let's pretend I didn't) You heard me right, THESIS a.k.a I'm already on my last semester WHOOOTTTT?! That got me thinking and wondering, how can I live in this country for almost three years now, and have not explore other cities? A huge country of with 643,803 km 2, that offers so much more that the eiffel tower // from the most sunny beachy cities in the South to the chilly, snowy mountains to ski. So yeah, I have decided that I will dedicate my energy, money and time to move my lazy ass away from Paris and go into wild adventure (okay 'wild' is a little too much) Last Fall, I spent sometime in Bourgogne aka Burgundy to visit Dijon and Beaune, then Alsace for my Winter break on which I visited Colmar and Strasbourg and got mesmerized by the beauty of fairytale-looking cities and I must say, they have the 'fleek-est' C...

Surprise surprise! I am currently living in Shanghai. I’m already in my sixth week actually! So far Shanghai still treat me good. The food are lovely and slightly cheaper than Paris, it has decent to clean streets which is uncommon in Paris street, I reunited with bubble drinks (YUM), so far so great. Definitely a very exciting and interesting place even though it is also quite a bizarre as the environment and the weather is more or less like Jakarta but it is not. So basically I feel more homesick in Shanghai compare with in Paris. Bizarre.  I also got a chance to see a cute pop-up café by my favourite brand, Kenzo and you can get a free coffee with a very cute polka dot cup! If you're in Shanghai, you can go to mall IAPM!  Don't forget to follow my Shanghai journey on my instagraammm !  This is the beautiful Jingan Temple Top : Forever21 / Jacket : Zara / Legging : Topshop / Shoes : Zara / Bag : Longchamp / Glasses : Swarovski

Little Italy

Image
To live in Paris, it is a very unique experience. Everything is just so...... colorless. The way people are dressed, the buildings, well basically everything, until I found this little street which made me so surprised as it is located inside Paris. Surreal, surreal. Definitely I wouldn't be surprised if I found this in Italy or I don't know maybe Greece. Oh well. Anyway, this location is not called Little Italy. Anyway, I know I don't really promote myself much but I just wanna tell you guys that I'm in Instagram (Duh) as patriciarossaa. Feel free to click the follow button eventhough I protected my account :) Have a relaxing weekend

You have no idea how great it is to finally see green fields with real mountains and trees after being apart of this crazy big city. I finally found refreshment. I went to a real picnic with my colleagues in just 1 hour drive from Paris. We had huge amount of crazy delicious foods, bbq and do some fun activities. It was a very nice day (although now I can feel that i'm already getting darker) but it could've been better if the rain didn't keep ruining our perfect day.  Glasses : &Other Stories / Necklace : (X)S.M.L / Jacket : Zara / Tank Top : H&M / Shorts : Mango / Shoes : Nike Photos : Hanna Theodora
