It had rained earlier that morning, and the air was cold and damp when I left the flat. The streets were fairly empty, despite it being nearly 10 am. Probably because it’s going to start raining again soon, I thought to myself, and a sensible person would have changed plans and stayed indoors. But I’d promised myself a day of exploring, rain or shine, so I wrapped my scarf tightly around my neck and made my way.
My first stop is the Institut Giacometti in Montparnasse to view the phenomenal reconstruction of Alberto Giacometti’s studio:
My next stop is the always enchanting Astier de Villatte in the 1st, for gifts and endless inspiration.
And then on to Le Pure Cafe in the 11th to meet up with a friend for coffee.
