Eat Well, Travel Often

I collect Lonely Planets.

” Difference enriches my life.” Once a French pilgrim friend told me. He traveled a lot around the world as a city planner.

After all the trips and my time overseas, I totally agree with him. Difference is beautiful.

I will fill this category with my travels, both journey to remote places and weekend city hopping.

I wish you good journey of life. 🙂

Buen camino, bon chemin!

Alain Passard's Michelin 3 star restaurant just in front of Musee Rodin in the chic 7th arrondissment Paris. I had only lunch one day before Cordon Bleu after noon class with a friend of mine. Alain Passard was greeting everyone there, I meet a lot of  French chefs (3 or 2 star chefs) because they are normally at  their eponymous restos to welcome guests.

    Being a yoga teacher and eating all creamy deserts, chocolates , cant believe that you eat them all. Not possible:) Have you been to Turkey?

      Hi, Sure, I’ve been to only Istanbul twice. Hagia Sophia was amazing and I loved the in-flight meal of Turkish airlines. Then I got curious about Istanbul biennale. 🙂

    Wow… you’ve been to so many places! Which one was your favorite? And is there some place where you would want to go that you haven’t been to?

      I loved Sintra the most. It’s near Lisbon, Portugal. I have very personal reasons for that. It was the last destination of my Santiago pilgrimage. So I had mixed feelings. Now I don’t fancy city-hopping or adventures at remote places. I will be happy with only short getaway to any relaxing resort.:)
