One of my favourite museums in Paris is the Musée Jacquemart-André.
It’s a beautiful building and often hosts wonderful exhibitions.

Across from my house is a “source”, or spring from which the Romans built a little aqueduct. This frosty morning the misty evaporations of water created a lovely effect. #CharenteMaritime #water #nature

Musée d’Orsay - one of my most favourite museums in the world. I mean who even thought to build a railway station so beautiful? Then who thought a railway station would make a beautiful museum? Chapeau!! #Paris #MuseedOrsay #art #impressionism #photography

Past and future focussed. This local undertaker business advertises headstones to remember your deceased loved ones, and, also in the window, a digital display horoscope! Not sure they predict when you’re going to need a headstone however!
