GALERIES LAFAYETTE CHRONICLES 👜🇫🇷✨

Our travel agenda often includes seeking panoramic views, favoring elevated locations. While the Eiffel Tower in Paris boasts a breathtaking panorama, ascending to the top might pose a challenge for those with a fear of heights. The tower's panoramic views come at a cost, and reviews question its value and suitability, especially for individuals with height apprehensions. It doesn't make sense to spend a significant amount if you can't fully enjoy the experience. Fortunately, someone recommended Galeries Lafayette, a free alternative and a must-visit spot in Paris. Not only does it provide a fantastic view, but it's also a shopper's paradise.

LOUVRE MUSEUM 🏰🎨
📍Paris, FRANCE 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Exploring the Louvre turned into an unexpected adventure! With over 500,000 objects and displaying 35,000 works of art across eight curatorial departments in 60,600 square metres (652,000 sq ft), our ambitious checklist encountered the reality of this vast museum.

My companion's passion for detailed art appreciation made us rethink. Decided to ditch the list, opting for a leisurely wander, and embracing the joy of the moment. It was initially a marathon, realizing the energy levels weren't matching up, so we chose a relaxed stroll, appreciating art without rush.

Ultimately, we embraced the unexpected, let go of the checklist, and immersed ourselves in the beauty of the Louvre at our own pace.

⛱️CAMPING ANCORA IN FERRARA, ITALY

BEACH ATTIRE👙🩱🩲🩳
Kapag nagpunta kayo sa mga beaches dito sa Europa, halos lahat ng kababaihan dito mga naka two piece swimsuit, meron pa nga ditong beaches for bare chested at n**e. Common yan dito sa kanila. Hindi katulad sa Pilipinas na minsan may makikita kang naka t-shirt habang nag swimming. Pero pwd ka nmang magsuot Ng rush guard, masyado din kasing mainit pag summer kaya proteksiyon din sa balat.

RIMINI BEACH 🏖️🌞
📍Emilia Romagna

Stretching for about 15 km long and up to 200 meters wide with its finest golden sand and blue shallow sea, this beach is one of the beautiful beaches here in Italy that you want to consider this summer.

MARINA di PISA BEACH
📍Tuscany Region🇮🇹

Isa sa napansin ko dito sa Italy is todo kayod sila pag weekdays pero pahinga pag weekend. Kaya siguro yung life expectancy nila mataas kasi aside from free healthcare, yung paraan ng pamumuhay nila dito ay balanse( even sa mga restaurants, healthy foods yung niluluto). Yung lifestyle din nila is work then pahinga. Necessity nila yung paggala kasi parang pang recharge nila yun for the upcoming week nman ulit. Stress din kasi buhay dito kasi sa taas ng cost of living, kaya need din talagang ipahinga ang katawan at isip.

Kapag summer, marami sa kanila nasa mga beaches na. Ilang buwan lang kasi ang init compare sa lamig kaya sinasamantala din nilang mag swimming. Yung iba nga parang mga daing na, buong maghapong nakabilad sa araw.
Yung mga alta dito may mga bahay bakasyunan pa at pag mag start na ang summer andun na sila. Pero syempre pag slapsoil na tulad namin uwian lang☺️

Not necessarily nman na you will spend a lot pag pupunta ka sa mga beach dito, basta game ka lang sa mga lakarang pang malayuan. Karamihan kasi sa public beach nasa dulo na at yung mga malalapit na parking space mabilis mapuno.
Pag mag commute nman kayo hindi yan problema dito, kasi public transport here is very accessible. Makakarating ka sa mga pasyalan using bus and trains.

SUMMER SEASON ☀️⛱️
Officially Summer Season na kaya time for swimming na ulit.

If your planning a summer trip to an Italian beach, here are the things you need to know:

Technically, the beaches here are public pero may mga area na tinatawag na “stabilimenti” or “bagni”, ito yung parang private beach sa Pilipinas. Pwd kayong makapag rent Ng sunbeds (“lettini") at umbrellas (“ombrelle”). Accessible din dito yung swimming pool, changing rooms, showers, toilets, places to store your clothes, at Restaurants. May security at lifeguards on duty din na malapit.

The rest Public na and therefore free, kahit environmental fee wala kang babayaran. Pero syempre dahil free hindi sila kasing well-maintained Ng mga private beaches. Minsan mabato at maraming kalat at malayo sa mga parking area, pero may napuntahan kaming beach na kahit free ang ganda din. Makikita nyo agad ang mga free beaches dito, hanapin nyo lang ang “Spiaggia Libera”. Bantayan niyo nalang ding mabuti yung mga gamit nyo, lalo na sa mga matataong pampublikong beach kasi may mga mandurukot din dito. Minsan target pa nila Yung mga Asian Kasi alam nilang mahihirapang magsumbong sa Pulis dahil sa language barrier.

SPRING, My Favorite Season🌱🌷

After the cold Winter, here comes Spring
where you can see flowers everywhere😊🌼

THE LABYRINTH OF LIFE

Life is like a Maze:
Many people give up on their dreams or don't ever begin to pursue them because from where they are standing, they can't see the whole path ahead, and so they never know how there dream is going to come true.
No successful person has ever known how his or her dream would happen. So continue until you see what you're looking for.

Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Life isn't fair. Some people are born into better environment, some have better genetics. But it's not a reason to stop.
Accept where you are and figure where you want to go. The important lesson is to do your best as much as possible and if you experience hardship before, never ever put your next generation in the same situation you once had.
THE CHANGE SHOULD START WITH YOU!

SKIING FOR THE FIRST TIME🏂❄️⛰️

Kung nasa bansang may Winter Season na din kayo, wag nyo nang palampasin ang pagkakataong makapag ski.
Ibang klaseng experience din ito. SA una mahirap, kasi Yung ski shoes mas mabigat kaysa normal na sapatos saka syempre hindi sanay ang paa nyo. Plus madulas pa ang yelo kaya expect nyo nang matumba.
Normal lang nman yan SA mga baguhan, kahit nga Yung mga taga dito may nakita din akong natutumba pa rin. Yun ngalang Hindi kasing dalas nung nangyari sakin😅. Pero habang nasasanay na kayong mag balanse at natututo, mas ma-eenjoy nyo nang mag ski.
Mag ready nalang kayo Ng salonpas pagkatapos Kasi paniguradong sasakit ang katawan nyo😁.

Heading up to the Alps to fulfill one of my bucket list⛰️❄️🏂
