France, Here I come - 7 Weeks to go

Still experiencing cold winter days in Melbourne.
A lot of things happened last few weeks, however highlights of all is to going to FRANCE for 3 weeks. hooray~~~
My DH and little princess is coming with me, so that's even better.

My dreaming of owning a french property is getting closer and closer.. I hope to secure something this trip but it that doesn't happen I get to travel to France more often.. whichever I can't complain too much.

I will do some French flea Market buying as well.. can't wait to do this..

In the meantime, there are so many things need to be taken care of before I leave..


This is where we will be staying in Paris ... I initially booked self contains apartment, however my little princess wants to stay at "FANCY" Hotel, so her wish was granted.



I will do some of this in Paris.. while little one and DH is checking out Museums etc.. Lucky me.



 After we leave Paris, we will be driving to  Loire Valley, where I want to buy a small house.

I was lucky to find this wonderful small gite (cottage ) and this will be out home for a while.


While we are in the region of Chateaus in Loire valley, I wanted to stay a couple of nights in Chateau. The photo of chateau is where we are going to stay. My little one and DH think it might be spooky.. (lol), but I gotta do what I gotta do. 



After Loire Valley and here and there, we will be heading back to Paris but we need to stop by at one more place before we leave France.. DISNEYLAND, PARIS. Thanks to little princess. 




This is our home for a few days in Disneyland. when I booked this hotel, I didn't realized that it was just opposite from the Europe's biggest Outlet Mall. I just got luck again.


So I will be doing some last minute shopping I guess..








I can't wait to take a trip to France, bonus to this trip I get to go to Korea to meet some of my friends and family on stop overs.

Hope you are all well.

Hello, Julie, thanks for becoming my newest follower. You're officially eligible to enter my give-away draw from Paris ! Although.... my goodness, you'll be able to do your own shopping in France ; what a beautiful trip you have planned and thanks to you I have learned that the Vallée was the largest outlet in Europe. Got to go back there ! Lots of love from France ! Bunny

Oh how I would love to come to your sale! France to Australia is a bit of a hike for that…I guess. When will you be in france exactly. I know you're not going to be in Provence, but I'm going to be in Paris for a few days in September.
