RECENT STORIES BREANNA & PATRICK KSENIA & DMITRY REBECCA & BORIS PATRICIA & LUIS OLIVIA & DAVID LENA & VOVA BLOG UPDATES LONDON, I MISS YOU I'm quite in love with London, and I'm not even sure why. Perhaps, it's because it has a european vibe with a touch of chic and even extravagant to some degree lifestyle. I adore every little details of pretentious Knightsbridge and every little corner of cute Notting Hill... MAY It’s been a very fast and less busy month full of personal thoughts on the next direction to take. My corporate friends laugh at me when I describe my (and their also) lifestyle as boring as all of us chase some kind of socially established agenda without digging into ourselves deep... ARTIST RESIDENCE (LDN) No matter how friendly and amazing other places are, London stole my heart from day one during my first visit few years ago. We happily reunited this March and I liked it even more. The fact that my very first night I spent at Artists Residence added onto brightening up the experience as well. Artist Residence is a small boutique hotel with just 7 rooms... PARIS IN FEBRUARY Paris is always a good idea. It really is. Who wouldn't want to roam cobblestoned Parisian streets, get lost, have late coffees with croissants..? The list is endless. I haven't been in Paris for almost 7 years until this February. Frankly, it wasn't the best time to go for one and only reason: two weeks after I left everything started blooming (damn you, instagram!). But otherwise, it was a good escape from cold NYC and an enjoyable break from work and other daily activities... THE EXPERIENCE MONGE When traveling, I like the idea of staying in different places to see as many new things as possible. But I also wanted to stick around Latin Quarter for few more days to explore the neighborhood and the Left Bank (La Rive Gauche). Hôtel Monge was ideal, not to say more. Located in the middle of the 5th arrondissement of Paris, this charming 4-star hotel was completely renovated and reopened in 2016... INSTAGRAM: LARISA_SHORINA
