Wow. Paris has so much to see! This museum is partly housed in a Roman bathhouse, and partly in a medieval hotel, and it's completely engrossing. Highlights for me are the archtecture and the Lady with a Unicorn tapestry series.

Great area with an eclectic feel. There are loads of little antique shops just perfect for browsing, and there's some great architecture on view too with the old port, clock tower, art deco constructions and some fortress looking things as well!

We went to an art installation in the south boiler house which was stunning, and dropped into the north house too to admire the architecture. A really memorable holiday outing.

My favourite part of Tokyo, hands down. This is what all cities should be like, with beautiful buildings and public works of art everywhere! And you can shop and eat at the Grand Hyatt Tokyo right there too.

We went with our Aussie friends for the Slow Food Market and we were delighted with the place. Lovely architecture, a wonderful vibe and the food was delicious too!
