So here it is, My last weekend in Paris.

Myself and my friend started off in La Defense with a little bit of shopping. I absolutely love the symmetry in the buildings along the sky line... and all the different sizes and textures they create when captured. All of which look pretty perfect in black and white if I do say so myself :)

Well, I'm not sure how to start this post... The only thing that is clear in my mind is.. how incredibly discusted I am with what happened on Friday 13th November. I still remember the feeling I had in the pitt of my stomach when I heard.. Consequently, my internet had been off for 3 hours that night so I ended up watching a movie on my Macbook. A text came through from my friend cancelling our plans on Saturday, I asked why, and she mentioned something on the lines of 'Because of all that's happening'.... I asked 'what do you mean' and that's when I saw the words "there has been terroist attacks here in Paris". That second, I got a phonecall from my father in panic. 

Through all of this happening, I was about to settle down with my kindle ready to sleep for the night. 

To all ISIS has affected ALL over the world, my heart remains strong for them. We all need to be strong. Fighting back is not the answer. Violence has never calmed violence. It's inhumane. 

I wasn't going to write a post with words but I thought, it's the least I can do. I felt/feel helpless and still do, as most of the world does... but this is my contribution. 

I have never felt the need more for world peace (personally), PURE peace, untill now. This is the time.  

World, you have many hearts behind you. It's name : the rest of us; Human Beings. 

This Saturday, myself a few other au pairs decided to go to St Ouen Flea Market - situated in the North of Paris. I had completely forgotten the fact that I had been here a few months ago but had also completely forgotten that 'St Ouen Flea Market' is actually a few different markets in itself. It's like a little city hidden away from the 21st century... and all close knit with its tiny little shops all squeezed together. 

The first set of pictures are taken at 'Marché Vernaison'

Sooooo..... One Sunday (usually my lazy days), we decided to head to Paris; firstly to go explore the streets... window shopping, gazing at Parisian Architecture... ya know, all the usual stuff...  

Myself & a friend went into the Church of Saint Paul and Saint Louis... It was defiantly one of the most beautiful churches I have seen, out of many. 

After all that jazz, we headed to the Christmas Markets over at Champs Elysees... and well. Who doesn't love the festive season and who doesn't love markets?! It is pretty much a win win situation... but hey, you don't need me to tell you this. 

If you are human, and like Christmas.. and sparkly lights and warm wine and smiley people and and.... just go already :)
