Graace Hotel, Luxembourg City
minimalism & functionality
Welcome to Graace! A hidden gem in Bonnevoie, Luxembourg City. When I first entered the courtyard of the hotel it felt like Paris or London to me, such an atypical place for luxembourg! The perfectly organised garden rising in front of me, accumulating symmetrical steel pillars reminding me of Japanese power lines, raw concrete, fogged glass windows, a fascinating, surreal, urban jungle. I instantly fell in love. The entire place reminds me so much of Japan… It even reminds me, somehow, of the Kill Bill fight scene in the Japanse garden. Something is so dreamy about this place while at the same it’s structured, organised and functional.

The Tube, Luxembourg City
Mind the gap - the first thing you see when entering the pub. The Tube named after the London Underground and first opened in 1999, is an iconic bar on rue Sigefroi in Luxembourg City. It had gathered crowds outside its front door for years and enjoyed strong popularity.

“Orval Abbey is a Cistercian monastery founded in 1132 in the Gaume region of Belgium and is located in Villers-devant-Orval, part of Florenville in the province of Luxembourg. The abbey is well known for its history and spiritual life but also for its local production of the Trappist beer Orval and a specific cheese.”

I also linked the ultra-violet mask which I applied for 3 hours in order to get that greyish-purple hair and the neon scrunchie from Bershka!

One week in New York City
Hello my friends! This girl finally visited New York City and she liked it! Such an inspiring city, always on the move! I have a lot to share with you so make sure to sit comfortable to read this article! So, I was sent to NYC by Education First and stayed a week in Manhattan! I tried to see as much as possible but still find time to walk around with no plan and discover the city. I think it’s important to do both things in a metropole, sightseeing and getting lost in the streets.

Peeeeeps! Hello! It’s Sunday, December 30th and I promised you to publish my trip to Cuba before 2019, so I will keep my promise!! :D Where should I start… Cuba was an amazing experience this Summer.

So let’s go!
