Greetings From Bretagne

Last Tuesday, my Grand Pa and I took the road with the trailer to go visit Bretagne. So tonight I'm writing from the trailer here in the lovely city of Vannes, with a horrible internet connection by the way but it seems to be working so far so I'll keep my fingers crossed. All the pictures of this post have been taken with my phone so they are not the most interesting ones or even good at all but right now that's all I can do until I have access to a computer. :)

I took both of my reflex cameras and it makes me so happy! :) I shot a roll with the film camera and about 500pictures with the digital one. Damn you multiple shot fonction! At least with the film camera you have to be careful what you shoot.

I treated myself to some local delicacies in tin boxes which will be useful when the delicious cookies will just be a memory. :)

My Grand Pa goes to bed every night around 9:30, which is pretty early, so I spend the rest of the night watching tv/sewing/writing. I love spending time with my Grand Pa, he's really funny and easy going but I cherish this alone time in the trailer, when he's sleeping in the bunk a few feet away from me. Plus tonight it's raining, so I hear all the rain drops falling on the roof. I love it, it feels so cosy and peaceful! And I always sleep like a log in the trailer and weirdly I remember all my dreams(the last two nights I dreamed, amongst other things, about my cat who is currently in Paris with my BF, and both nights I dreamed the cat could talk... Last night he told me he took a dump on my pillow...ahem, sure...why not...)

Oysters! The best in a very long time!

Selfie time in the trailer. I very rarely take selfies. But when I'm away from Greg, I have the urge to send him one once in a while. Maybe I'm afraid he'll forget my face or forgets about me altogether. :) Well, with this picture he said I took the best selfies in the world.:)

More oysters! :)

Lunch time in Bretagne :)

Today we visited the Vannes butterfly garden and aquarium. It was awesome. I'll put the pictures here as soon as I come back. :) After that we got icecreams. When I was a kid we would go to Spain every year with my parents and brother, and we would go nuts for this icy treat, lime Calippo! I was 10 again today, chasing butterflies and sucking on this. :)

My Grand Pa ladies and gentlemen :)

Chinese New Year In Paris

Better late than never... I finally got the roll of the Chinese new year pictures back from the lab.

My friend Estelle came to visit me here in Paris to try out her new camera. We had planned a day of picture taking and ending up shopping until maybe 3pm. We were exhausted from all the shopping but we heard the parade at the end of my street and we just had to do what we first intended. So we grabbed the camera and followed the dragons. :)

Little cutie to finish the roll :)

365 Fail

I started a project 365 on January 22nd and that was the end of it on... February 11...

I was very excited about it on the first few days because I used my film camera and it's always a real pleasure but I quickly realized that since I'm hardly ever going out of the apartment, the possibilities were limited and the project would be very boring.

I had a bunch of ideas I wanted to use for my pictures but a lot of times the day was coming to an end and I just shot whatever I could... And that sucks.

My night table. I had no idea the pictures would come back in black and white. Well, it was a black and white roll but last time I dropped one at the lab it came back in colors.

Drying my hair and reading, bliss!

Drinking wine. I took the oppurtunity of the 365 project to train myself at selfportrait. Not too good...

Seven Months

It took me seven months to bring this roll of pictures to the lab and get them back... There was the last pictures of our trip to Chicago on it, from last september!!

Beer outside the apartment... How I miss it... How I miss this city and the USA in general.

We bought our plane tickets for next september to Portland, OR, but still haven't found a place to stay. I'm not worried yet, maybe I should be because finding a place to stay in Portland seems to be a bitch!

Haaa, bare legs and bare feet.... See you in a few months!

I don't remember the exact date but this one must be from an october walk I took by the Canal Saint Martin with my friend Estelle. I love going there especially because of the great street art which is ever changing. Here we go:

Film camera, how I love you!

I got all the rolls lying around developped. I'm going on a road trip with my Grand Pa in two days, it won't take me seven months to bring them to the lab again.
