Wandering in Cannes, la Pantiero and the Palais des Festivals

Film camera sculpture in Cannes

CANNES, FRANCE – Here is another area of Cannes not to be missed: the Pantiero esplanade and (of course) the Palais des Festivals. Everything around here looks even more magical thanks to all the beautiful trees and flower arrangements as well as the typical Mediterranean sunlight making everything shine in pretty pastel tones :)

Voici un autre endroit incontournable à visiter à Cannes: l’esplanade de la Pantiero et (bien sûr) le Palais des Festival et des Congrès. Le tout rendu encore plus magique par les beaux arbres et fleurs tout autour ainsi que par la typique lumière du soleil Méditerranéen qui nous fait cadeaux d’une belle palette de tons pastels :)

Wandering in Cannes: from the Croisette to Californie

Californie neighbourhood in Cannes

CANNES, FRANCE – Here is the second post about the beautiful walks (or even better, power walks!) that you can experience while in Cannes :) An interesting itinerary is to walk from the Croisette (ideally starting from the Palais des Festivals) to the Californie which is a very beautiful neighbourhood and be sure not to miss the Moure Rouge! :) Here’s a glimpse of what you’d see :)

Voilà le deuxième post dédié aux belles promenades (ou encore mieux, pauses jogging!) que l’on peut faire à Cannes. Un itinéraire intéressant serait de marcher de la Croisette (départ depuis le Palais des Festivals) jusqu’à la Californie, qui est un très très beau quartier de la ville et bien sûr n’oubliez pas d’aller au Moure Rouge ! :) Voici ce que l’on peut voir…

Summer & the city :)

Vespas and pink oleander in Southern France

CANNES, FRANCE – Walking around in the summer breeze under the hot sun while being surrounded by flower scent and pastel colors all around is a lovely, lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon here in Southern France :) I still can’t get over those lilac Jacaranda trees, they are everywhere at the moment and I think they definetely deserve the title of cutest trees in the world together with the frangipanis :) These images are from yesterday evening in Cannes, enjoy xx

Se promener dans le vent d’été sous le soleil, tout en étant entourée de parfums des fleurs et des couleurs pastel… c’est une super façon de profiter d’un beau samedi après-midi passé ici au sud de la France :) Je n’arrive toujours pas à résister face à la beauté de ces arbres de Jacarandas mauves. Ils sont partout et je pense qu’ils méritent bien d’être élus au titre d’arbres les plus jolis au monde en même temps que les frangipaniers :) Ces images de hier soir vous montrer un peu de Cannes en version estivale :) à plus xx

Chasing the sunset light

Sun setting over palm trees in the streets of Cannes, French Riviera

CANNES, FRANCE – Sharing a few images from a couple of days ago when I was getting my daily dose of nature appreciation by admiring some beautiful sunset tones in between the palm trees silhouettes. I can never get used to how the pastel tones on the Mediteranean give you the feeling of walking in a living impressionist painting… a pretty dreamy kind of relax :) Enjoy x

City of Nice

Nice's Place Massena

NICE, FRANCE – After the posts about Nice’s beach and the newly build green spine Promenade du Paillon, it’s time to get lost wandering around the city’s pretty streets, in particular the famous (and spectacular) Place Masséna.

I can’t get over the colourfulness of its buildings …they’re so bold! :)

On a blue sky day like this, you are gonna have to tone down the saturation or nobody is gonna believe it’s true :)

For an addict to colours like me, this is wonderland :D

La Promenade du Paillon à Nice

Jardins du Paillon

NICE, FRANCE – A few days ago I had the chance to go visit the city’s newly built “green spine” called Promenade du Paillon. It features exotic plants from all 5 continents, fountains, water games and a generally high amount of natural goodness all around. All of this paired with the typical blue sky and sunshine… I’m in love :)

The variety of trees and plants is incredible, I’ll share a few favorites below :) Hope you’ll enjoy this little ‘visual’ walk through these beautiful gardens :) xx
