The temperatures in England are pretty high at the moment. I visited the closest lake today and though I was wearing my fabulous leopard studded shoes, I ended up buying a cheap pair of scandals for the rest of the day! The sun is shinning all day long and I love being outside enjoying the light and warmness on my skin.

I got the shoes and the top that I'm wearing from Sheinside, an online store with fabulous clothing. If you wanna get the same shoes or anything else from the store I've got great news for you, use the code Anastasia20 at the checkout and you're gonna get a 20% discount until the end of May. Hurry up!

Love,

Paroles, paroles-Dalida & Alain Delon

Marseille is the oldest city in France and was founded in 600BC from Greeks.

The city is very beautiful and has the typical Mediterranean style; the architecture of the buildings is the same as in Greece, Italy and Spain. People are friendly and welcoming but unfortunately they dont speak English.

I had to remember all my French language skills and I was amazed by how quickly brain can recover words and phrases that I havent used for more than 10 years!

We stroll around the port every day, enjoy the sunny, warm weather, eat plenty of seafood and drink wine.What more can I ask?

Love,

Anastasia

Day two in London with Sara

 On our second day in London with Sara we visited the Byzantium cafe in Bayswater and Sara had the chance to eat a traditional Greek sweet called galaktompoureko (unfortunately bougatsa was over).

 Then we headed with stomach full to the Notting hill gate and Portobello market.

Sara enjoyed Portobello a lot since it reminded her of Southern Italy.

 Then we went to Brick lane and the Old Stables for some shopping and food. An interesting point is that cooking in public is not permitted in the States so it was a happy surprise for Sara to see all that Asian cuisine disposed in the public.

and that was the end of our journey. Next day Sara headed to Paris and I'm currently in Marseille, enjoying the warm, sunny weather.

Day one in London with Sara

On Saturday morning, Sara and I woke up early to catch the train to London for an amazing sight seeing tour. The aim was to see as much as possible within one day and the plan was simple; start from London Tower bridge, walk by the Thames riverside to the London Eye, reach Big Ben and then follow the way to Buckingham palace through James park.

As an architect Sara has a pretty serious building architect addiction and she can tell at what time each building was built according to their window arches and decorative columns!

 We wondered for a long time around the Buckingham palace when we decided to walk by the Mall and go to Trafalgar square, then Leicester square, China town and finally Covent Garden Market. Thanks God I was wearing my running shoes, that were the same shoes that Sara was wearing when she run the Marathon in Athens 3 years ago. What a coincidence!

At the end of day, we had an overloaded memory card camera, damaged feet and lots of happiness in our hearts.
