bergamo romantica

Thursday 21th of March

We're kicking off the first day of spring in an extra festive way; a lovely city break in charming Bergamo. Ciao bella città!

Bergamo has views of the mountains to the north and valleys to the south. The city actually consists of two towns: Città Bassa and Città Alta.

We arrived after sunset and went straight to dinner after checking into our hotel. Straightaway in the Italian la vita è bella mood!

Campari, vino, birra, pasta con pesce, risotto, tiramisu, caffè espresso, musica, and making plans for domani...

Paris in August was so special and I think it was our favorite visit ever. Only a 'few' tourists, considerably less Parisians, closed offices and less traffic.

And we tested many super parisian terraces with the most beautiful and colorful bistro chairs.

Being in Paris for four days, we took our time for everything, no rush, what a lovely time.

Paris, city of love and romantic sunset walks along the Seine. L'amour toujours...
