We arrived at our hotel Mama Shelter (which is amazing!!) and settled in nicely..
It was not the best weather in the world but we did the most touristy thing you can do and went to visit the Eiffel tower! And what a wonderful fella he is..
I decided the Eiffel tower looks like the Blackpool tower (check out my northern points of reference!)
We walked and explored and ended up in Jardin des Tuileries..
And visited the Opera in the rain..
Hungry as always, we ate pizza and drank beers in the Pizzeria at Mama Shelter, it was delicious.
And drank more drinks!

Amsterdam pt. 3 – Rijksmuseum & Dutch pancakes
The Rijksmuseum museum had just opened again in April after almost ten years of renovation, so we visited!
A Mondrian YSL dress!
You know you’re a designer/illustrator when the thing that excites you the most in this museum is the style guide. Oh god. LOVE. The colour palettes are also designed based on the most famous paintings in their collection. Amazing!
Afterwards we ate delicious nutella, banana, strawberry and cream filled pancakes!
Amsterdam pt. 2 – Kitsch Kitchen
Kitsch Kitchen is an amazing shop in Amsterdam which I have liked for years but never been. Here are some photos of it in all it’s amazing brightly coloured glory!
Nathalie Lete plates <3
And what I came away with.. (with much restraint!)
Amsterdam pt. 1 – Everyone has blue eyes.
The view from our airbnb apartment! We arrived Sunday afternoon, and I actually got on the plane with no valium (minor miracle). We walked to the red light district and ate some delicious pizza..
The canals! It’s so easy to get lost in Amsterdam. Every street is a canal! 
We drank fizzy wine in the apartment, ready to go out!
We read about Door 74 online, a kind of secret cocktail bar! It was great, I drank champagne.
We paid ALL of 2 euros to see some not-very-sexy people fucking.
Albert Heijn’s breakfast! I love foreign supermarkets..
Bikes everywhere!
