I’d love to be outside, watching the trees of the forest sway in the breeze, today! #bankholiday #mood #thankyoufrance • • • #wednesday #picoftheday #lebarn #newhotel #wellbeing #atonewithnature #lovelife #feelinggood trees #blueskies #earthspirit #staycation #summerinparis #iamatraveller #traveldeeper #nature #naturelover #igfrance #visitfrance #countrylife #thisisit #fromwhereistand #ihavethisthingwithtrees

Feeling lazy today! Loving the simple shaker style interiors and restful palette of warm earthy colours here... It's so tempting to just stay cooped up in bed all day with a cup of tea and a good book, and watch the sunlight dance over the meadows outside! 😌🍃 #weekendbliss #nature #backtothebasics

What peace looks like... 😇 Even if Paris has emptied a little with most people going away on holiday, there's nothing like being at one with nature! Less than an hour from Paris, in the Rambouillet Forest, these open spaces, powder blue skies and soft haired horses out in golden meadows are the view for the next couple of days!👌🙏🌿🌿@lebarnhotel #breathe #staycation #feelinggrateful . . . #getoutside #countrylife #visitfrance #1hourfromparis #lifestylechange #naturelover #leavemehere #nature_photo #lebarn #newhotel #horsepower #treesarelife #weekendtime #relax #reset #rewind #france #visitfrance #likeforlike #beautifulfrance #traveldeeper #countrysidelife #newluxury #frenchliving #instago #instatravel #travelinspo

Urban jungle living. Hats off to the @bigmammagroup for running such a huge operation at La Felicità so smoothly, and for the reasonably priced menu - oh, and for the to-die-for mozzarella✌️#lafelicita #whosyourmama #stationf . . . #picoftheday #latergram #parismaville #seulementparis #instafood #igersparis #seemyparis #thisisparis #parislife #paris13 #foodie #summerinparis #pizzalove #trufflepasta #urbanjungle #urbanjunglelovers #urbannature

The walk along the steep gravel path is worth every slippery step. Tucked away beyond the sun-beaten craggy hills of La Vesse calanque, is one of a dozen secret beaches... Here, the crystal clear waters are fresh and the air is still, with only the occasional crunch of footsteps on pebbles and the sound of the waves gently licking the shore👌 #beautifulfrance #breathe . . . #picoftheday #igersfrance #france #france_photolovers #visitfrance #traveldeeper #instago #instatravel #instadaily #ig_france #relax #summerinfrance #summervibes #nature #naturelover #green #nature_lovers #holidayvibes #beachbum #latergram #takemeback #vacaymode #secretfrance #travelmore #sea #marseille #keepitreal #dream

Empire state of mind. Who said NY living was all go, go, go?✌️Brooklyn was one of my favourite places in the city for its calm. I hopped over for an assignment for @glamourparis (more on that in October!) and it was a lot of fun. The last time I was in NY, the Twin Towers were still standing... Such a great experience, even if very short #chilling #latergram . . . #newyork #travelinspo #greenpoint #brooklyn #newyork_ig #manhattan #bigapple #newyorkstyle #travelholic #bestview #cityscape #viewpoint #nyc #thisisnewyork #empirestatebuilding #picoftheday #travel #traveldeeper #sunshine #visitnewyork #view #passionpassport #igersnewyork #newyorkcity #citylife #break #breathe #bikinibody

I hadn't been back in a while, but this spot is still one of my favourites - the creamy truffle, walnut and raisin rigatoni dish was an absolute dream (and I'm not the biggest raisin fan)👌👌 It's just a shame that we were suddenly told to vacate the table as we were tucking into rich chocolate mousse that deserved more than the minute our waitor gave us! WTF, @daroco_paris?! We still had a brilliant time though - à refaire @katematthams 💯❤️ . . . #slickstuff #instagood #picoftheday #designporn #igersparis #thisisparis #seemyparis #parismaville #seulementparis #visitparis #daroco #parisfoodie #doitlikealocal #parislife #latergram #unlimitedparis #parislove #passionpassport #parisjetaime #parismonamour #instafood #topparisphoto #summerinparis #parisguide #parisgram #travelgram #designlovers #interiors #instaparis #visitfrance

This time last week, I woke up to this... Needless to say that my jaw almost hit the floor when I first laid eyes on this view. It was my first time in Greece outside of Athens (favourite city, ever), and I fell hard for this often overlooked peninsula. The azure waters, pine forests, but also the food and the people are wonderful - and on the way back, our taxi driver treated us to the best souvlaki I've ever tasted... I can't wait to go back ❤️ #nofilter . . . #priceless #lovelife #saniclub #saniresort #greece #visitgreece #beatifulgreece #instago #greece_is_awesome #latergram #natureporn #naturelover

Sittin' on the dock of the bay💦 We'd just finished putting up an arch made of branches and flowers for our friends' wedding and managed to get this quick snap in before the ceremony✌️Had such a wonderful time #beautifulfrance . . . #holidayvibes #beautifulwedding #magical #lakeviews #nature #naturelovers #aquitaine #picoftheday #instatravel #topfrancephoto #igersfrance #ig_france #france #beachlife #likesforlike #traveldeeper #passionpassport #visitfrance #lovelife #sunnydays #morninginspo #sunnydays #summervibes #wanderlust #travelinspo #francetravellers #francetravel #happy #happiness

Where you'll find me (while I gorge on my zillionth oyster fresh out of the water). Here, on the Arcachon basin, you'll find the most charming setting of wooden cabins lined up along the water, locals lunching in their fragrant gardens, and oyster farmers hauling their treasures out of the sea ready to be savoured #reallife 🌊😁 . . . #leavemehere #lifegoals #dreamhouse #beautifulfrance #visitfrance #travelfrance #travel #travelinspo #traveldeeper #holidayvibes #igersfrance #topfrancephoto #francetravellers #passionpassport #happy #lovelife #summer #travelgram #simplethingsmadebeautiful #vacances #love #francejetaime #nature #naturelovers #lekiffe #thisisfrance #breathe #peace #picoftheday

There's a special atmosphere on France's Jade coast 🇨🇵 Not far from the picture-perfect ports of neighbouring Brittany, it's truly off the beaten track. And facing the inky skies that melt into the murky ocean waters, is the serene @annedebretagne.laplainesurmer hotel. Waking up here to the gentle sound of the waves licking the sandy beach was a dream - as was digging into Mathieu Guibert's delicious 2* dishes of local shellfish I never knew existed like ormeau (swipe⬅️) and rigadeau! Loved every minute 👌🐚🐟 Merci à toute l'équipe!

Still fantasising about what it would be like to live floating above the ocean in one of these wooden fishing cabins. I'd love to wake up to the great big wispy blue skies and the sound of the splashing sea, while it creeps away from shore, and reveals the golden sands once again⛱️ . . . #breathe #latergram #brittany #bretagne #break #sunshine #lovelife #visitfrance #francetravellers #beautifulfrance #passionpassport #traveldeeper #explorer #jaimelafrance #dream #magic #igersbretagne #instatravel #francophile #love #francejetaime #vacances #holidayinspiration #wanderlust #breizh #bretagnetourisme #sea #naturelovers #nature

Waking up this morning, I so very much wish the first thing I could do is take a walk on this windswept beach which we had all to ourselves a week ago (instead of having to listen to my neighbour's vacuum cleaner)🙄🌊🌊🌊 . . . #breathe #weekendvibes #brittany #bretagne #break #sunshine #lovelife #visitfrance #francetravellers #beautifulfrance #passionpassport #traveldeeper #explorer #jaimelafrance #dream #magic #igersbretagne #instatravel #francophile #love #francejetaime #vacances #holidayinspiration #wanderlust #breizh #bretagnetourisme #sea #naturelovers #nature

I keep forgetting just how wonderful this region is! Take me back to last weekend's cloudless blue skies full of summer promise stretched above Pornic Castle.

Dining in the shadows... Loved basking in the charm of Pétrelle, where the interiors reminded me of a small secret theatre - a wooden chandelier stole the show, as did the hand drawn artworks and menus... Brings me back to why I fell in love with Paris all those years ago... #almost11years #thisisparis * * * #parisgram #parismaville #parislife #thisisparis #therealparis #parisjetaime #parismonamour #hiddenparis #beyondthewanderlust #igersparis #ig_paris #seemyparis #visitparis #beautifulparis #offthebeatenpath #doitlikealocal #parislove #petrelle #parisrestaurant #loves_paris #instaparis

Breaking news! A restaurant/community kitchen @refettorioparis has opened in the Madeleine church crypt and the interiors were done by @h2o27, @rf__studio, @encore_heureux_architectes and artworks by @jr. Refettorio Paris aims to serve 100 meals a day to people in vulnerable situations using about 130 kg of recovered food. And the first chef in residence is @MassimoBottura @foodforsoul_it👌👌#refettorioparis #massimobottura #newinparis #conmunityproject #empoweringpeople #thisisparis #parislife #parismaville #parisguide #parisexplorer #parisjetaime #parismonamour #ig_paris #loves_paris #instaparis
