Ceci Madame, est-Versailles

Since I am now on Vacation for a bit, I decided to take this weekend completely off and start work from Monday.

My friend Zoe (@Zorro_ness) who is also a South African in Paris decided to go to the Chateau of Versailles for the day. 

Me & Zoe
<3
After making her wait because I was 30 minutes late (Sorry about that by the way Zoe, at least I saved some Fizzers for you :)) we got on RER C and went to this magical place which is by far one of my favourite places in the world. It was my 3rd time going and every time it just gets more and more amazing even though it is always so cold when I go BUT at least it was sunny and pretty today <3.

Here are some photos of my favourite things in Versailles. They arent really like the typical Versailles pictures - some are like arbitrary because I like to take pictures of random things that I can get inspiration from.

It is defiantly worth going for a day trip if you are ever in Paris (It takes like 20 - 30 minutes on RER C from Point de l'Alma or Champs de Mars) and you hit me up and I'll take you, if you buy me coffee or lunch which for me usually is just coffee anyway.


 Salon des Glaces
(Hall of Mirrors)

You know Countess duBarry would take selfies in Salon des Glaces too if she was around these days.


I love this picture because the guy in the middle on the white horse is just like: "Bitches look at me, I've arrived".
