…the ticket is €16, which honestly makes it even better.

La Galerie Dior is one of the most beautiful museum experiences I’ve had in Paris. And you absolutely don’t need to be a fashion expert to enjoy it.

A few useful things to know before you go:
🎟️ Ticket price: 16€ ( book in advance on their website) 
📍 Location: 11 Rue François Ier, Paris 8e (just next door to 30 Avenue Montaigne)
🚫 Closed on Tuesdays
• 🎫 Online reservation of a time slot is highly recommended. If it’s sold out online, you can sometimes still buy tickets on site, but there may be a wait, especially during busy periods.
🕰️ Plan around 1.5 to 2 hours if you like to take your time
👗 It tells the full story of Christian Dior, from the first collections to iconic dresses, sketches, accessories, and immersive rooms
📸 Photos are allowed, so it’s a beautiful stop if you love visual places in Paris

After your visit, stay for a coffee and dessert at Café Dior, inside the Dior boutique next door. It’s a lovely way to finish the experience and turn it into a little moment for yourself.

If you’re building your Paris itinerary and love museums, fashion, design, and beautiful architecture, this is such a good stop to add.

Save this for your Paris trip and send it to the friend who would love this kind of place 🤍

This Paris café and restaurant near Opéra Garnier looks like a Christmas ballet, and it’s not just for photos.
📍Café de la Paix and The Verriere Restaurant is part of Le Grand Hôtel and works perfectly for both coffee and lunch.
🩰With the ballerina-shoe Christmas tree and the soft, elegant setting, the whole place feels very ballet-core Paris in December.
This amazing decor was made by @emmasosastudio 
Come for a quiet coffee break in the afternoon, or plan it as a slow lunch between sightseeing. It’s central, elegant, and easy to fit into a Paris day without rushing from one place to another.

We ordered the onion soup and the beef tartare, and both were genuinely delicious.
Comforting, classic, and exactly what you want on a winter day in Paris.

A really good stop when you want something classic, pretty, and very Paris. 

Save this for your winter Paris plans.

Save this for your Normandy itinerary or send it to someone that wants to visit Mont Saint Michel 🇫🇷

10 things you should know before visiting Mont Saint Michel:

1️⃣ Stop at the iconic snake road viewpoint before arriving
One of the most beautiful panoramic views of Mont Saint Michel is from the winding road viewpoint at these exact coordinates: 48.603272, -1.506898. It’s the perfect photo stop, especially around sunrise or sunset

2️⃣ Park at the official Mont Saint Michel parking area

3️⃣ Take the free “Le Passeur” shuttle bus to the island
You can also walk the bridge back for the views

4️⃣ Enter through Porte du Roi and explore the medieval main street

5️⃣ Visit Mont Saint Michel Abbey
The abbey is the highlight of the entire visit, and from my point of view, a guided tour is an absolute must. We did an amazing English tour and learned so much about the history and significance of this place. You’ll also get to see the beautiful cloister, which has one of the best views on the island

6️⃣ Enjoy lunch or dinner at one of the restaurants along the main street
A meal with a view makes the experience even more special

7️⃣ Check the tides before visiting
Mont Saint Michel looks completely different depending on the tide level

8️⃣ Stay overnight if you can
Most day-trippers leave in the evening, so staying overnight lets you experience the island when it’s much quieter and more magical

9️⃣ Wear comfortable shoes
The streets are steep, uneven, and often crowded, so good walking shoes make a big difference

🔟 Visit early in the morning or later in the evening
These are the best times to avoid the biggest crowds and enjoy better photo opportunities

✨ Bonus: try the famous omelette at La Mère Poulard

Honestly, Mont Saint Michel needs more planning than people think, but it’s absolutely worth it.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Trevi Fountain and I think it’s absolutely worth visiting. But Rome has so much more to offer beyond its most famous landmarks.

Here are 10 places that deserve a spot on your Rome itinerary.

📍 Appartamenti Segreti Doria Pamphilj
One of the most beautiful interiors in Rome. Keep in mind this requires a separate ticket from the gallery and currently costs €6.

📍 Galleria Doria Pamphilj
One of the most beautiful art galleries in Rome and a must for anyone who loves historic palaces and impressive collections.

📍 Castel Sant’Angelo + Ponte Sant’Angelo
A Rome classic that combines history, architecture, and some of the best views in the city.

📍 Basilica di Sant’Ignazio di Loyola
Famous for its optical illusion ceiling and mirror viewpoint, but worth visiting even if you don’t queue for the photo.

📍 Chiostro del Bramante
Home to one of the most beautiful interactive exhibitions I’ve visited in Rome. Don’t miss the café overlooking the courtyard.

📍 Rooftop Lounge Trevi
A great alternative if you want to enjoy views of the Trevi Fountain without standing in the crowds. Entrance is €25 and includes a drink.

📍 Palazzo Barberini
One of the most underrated museums in Rome, with beautiful staircases, impressive rooms, and a peaceful garden.

📍 OTMV Rooftop
One of the best rooftop views of Altare della Patria and central Rome.

📍 Palazzo Altemps
An underrated palace filled with sculptures, elegant rooms, and far fewer visitors than many of Rome’s famous museums.

📍 Spanish Steps
Still one of the most beautiful places in Rome, especially early in the morning or around sunset.

Whether you’re visiting Rome for a weekend or planning a longer Italy trip, save this Rome travel guide for later 🇮🇹

Comment MERCI and I’ll send you my Paris travel guide with 40 places to save for your trip.

10 things to do in Paris that aren’t the Louvre:

📍 Hôtel de la Marine
One of my favorite interiors in Paris, right on Place de la Concorde.

📍 Bibliothèque Richelieu
Yes, this is a library. And yes, it really looks like this.

📍 La Galerie Dior
One for fashion lovers, but honestly worth seeing even just for the displays.

📍 Maison Revka
A beautiful stop near Victor Hugo if you want somewhere that feels a little more special.

📍 Opéra Garnier
You don’t need tickets to a show to see one of the most beautiful interiors in Paris.

📍 Carette
Touristy? Yes. Would I still go back for breakfast with a Trocadéro view? Also yes.

📍 Watch the artists in Montmartre
One of those very Paris moments that is still worth doing.

📍 Musée Carnavalet
A museum about the history of Paris, inside two beautiful mansions.

📍 Archives Nationales
An easy stop to add while exploring Le Marais.

📍 Louis Vuitton Café
Come for the chocolate cake. That’s the recommendation.

Comment CAFE and I’ll send you my full guide to 20 beautiful cafés in Paris, with my honest opinions, what to order, the best time to go, and which ones are actually worth adding to your itinerary ☕️

Because a café can look perfect on Instagram and still be a complete waste of one of your precious Paris mornings.

Part 1 of my Paris café list:

📍 Francette
📍 Carette
📍 Louis Vuitton Café
📍 La Maison Rose
📍 Maison Revka
📍 La Verrière
📍 Plaza Athénée
📍 Le Jardin
📍 Madame Madame
📍 Le Botaniste

I’m judging them on more than pretty interiors: the location, atmosphere, food, service, views, crowds, and whether I’d actually go back.

Some are famous Paris cafés. Some are hotel cafés. Some are very Instagrammable. And yes, some are much more worth your time than others.

Save this for your next trip to Paris and send it to the friend who is always looking for the prettiest café stops.

10 photo spots you shouldn’t miss in Tuscany Tuscany is a photo spot at every corner and impossible to fit into one post, but here are 10 of my favourites and I’ll keep sharing more 1. Siena – Facciatone – climb the unfinished cathedral façade for the best view over the city 2. Siena – Piazza del Campo – come early morning if you want it almost empty 3. Podere Baccoleno – the iconic cypress road near Asciano 4. Pienza – Val d’Orcia arch – one of the most photographed views in town 5. Cappella di Vitaleta – small chapel surrounded by cypress trees between Pienza and San Quirico 6. Palazzo Massaini – cypress-lined road with open countryside views 7. Montalcino – fortress – walk the walls for vineyard views 8. Montepulciano – street view over Val d’Orcia – near Piazza Grande 9. Lucca – Piazza San Martino – right by the Duomo 10. Pisa – Baptistery – climb for a view over the Cathedral and the Leaning Tower Which one would you add to your Tuscany itinerary?

If you’re planning a Paris trip and want a café stop close to the Eiffel Tower, save this one.

Carette is one of the most iconic Paris cafés for breakfast, hot chocolate, and pastries.

Comment LINK and I’ll send you my list of 20 Instagrammable cafés in Paris you can add to your trip.

We came here for breakfast and ordered hot chocolate, croissants and berries.
The hot chocolate is the star. Thick, rich, proper Paris style.

This location is right at Trocadéro, so you can pair it with Eiffel Tower photos before or after. To avoid the like go there early in the morning.

Other Carette locations in Paris:
• Place des Vosges (Le Marais)
• Montmartre

📍 Carette – 4 Place du Trocadéro, 75016 Paris

Maybe this is your sign to finally visit the places you keep dreaming about.

A year ago, I couldn’t even imagine moments like this would become real… and now I’m sharing the exact spot with you.

If you want to see this view in real life, save these GPS coordinates for your France trip:

📍 48.61944, -1.49323

This is the exact viewpoint where I filmed this video and honestly… it felt unreal in person.

Save this for your France itinerary and share it with someone you’d go there with 🇫🇷
