After moving to New York City for school my friends and I decided a great way to get to know the city is to try a new restaurant every thursday night. It's also a place where I can to take a minute and reflect on the craziness of my new life and the lessons I'm learning along the way. We have been having so much fun meeting cute waiters, talking to other foodies and eating lots of fabulous food. Now about that gym membership...

Bon Jour from Paris!
Finally in Paris, I've been having so much fun exploring this city. First thing we did when I landed was go to La Duree, famous for its macaroons and cakes. Its right on the Champs Elysees and inside decorated in golds and green. We decided to call it a night early and the next morning we started off at the Musee de l'Orangerie, to see Monet's water lilies. We then walked through the Tuileries Gardens to the Louvre, found a cafe and ordered a few croque monsieurs and espressos. After some caffeine for the jet lag we were off to my favorite spot, Montmartre, north of Paris, known for the Basilique du Sacre-Coeur (Basilica of the sacred hearts) a beautiful white church and for being an artist's village. Its been a great first couple days and I can't wait to see more of the famous sights and try more of the french food, although I could get used to a croque monsieur everyday. Bonsoir
