Last August, after a rather stressful beginning to our summer, Edward and I were in great need of a holiday. We had our hearts and minds set on Paris. We spent a few days shopping around and finally booked flights and a beautiful hotel in the heart of Montmartre. It all seemed so perfect: early … Continue reading Paris… Je t’aime, je te déteste!
