5 days in Paris

These 5 days in Paris in Paris were some of the most beautiful I've spent in Europe so far. We could walk for hours and explore every street and still find something beautiful in every alleyway. Spent the days sight seeing, walking around Montmartre and Butte aux Cailles, admiring street artists, shopping at various markets, and trying too many french pasteries. The Eiffel Tower was beautiful, but it didn't compare to the those little streets that tourists would never come across. If there was one place I could live someday, this would be it.

Berlin Photo Diary (Part III)

The last photos of my journey to Berlin. Highlights: East Side Gallery of the Berlin Wall, Kunsthaus Tacheles (a must see if you're into abandoned buildings, graffiti, or art), an amazing lunch with friends consisting of fish fillet and mussels, thrifting at the Mauerpark Fleamarket, spice shopping at the Turkish Market, admiring modern art at the Hamburger Bahnhof, the Jewish Holocaust Memorial, and taking the S-bahn ring around Berlin. (PS. Sorry for the weird spacing between some pictures.. I can't figure out how to fix it)

Kunstsalon

Like most good things, it started with a glass of wine and talk about art. I was invited to the studio of a very talented Polish artist, Katharina Goldyn, for an exhibit and a chance to meet other artists in Munich. The night was a mix of art, music, literature, and lots of wine. I got a chance to talk to a few artists, one of whom used to live in Texas, and invited me and two friends to his trailer the following day to "drink red wine, smoke cigars, and talk art."
