Front Window, Valletta, Malta

Visiting Malta at the begining of October, I found myself spending a day wandering in the charming

streets of its capital, Valletta.

The day being a Sunday, everything was nearly closed. The town seems only inhabited by tourists strolling around, all the museums and churches were closed too, that was the only thing to do. We spend a long time watching passers-by, which is an extremely interesting activity that I would like to do more.

I found the front windows of Valletta really interesting, and here is a little selection of the one I liked.
( sorry for the quality of the pictures is not great, I was so lazy and didn't edit them !!)

This accumulation of wooden balcony is just so cute !!  

At the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna

Both of us got rather inspired (well a bit everywhere, in the park of the Villa Borghese too) in the patio inside the Galleria Nazionale D'Arte Moderna. The place was quite striking. A big bronze sculpture of a man lying down, his hand tied up behind his back, stood in the middle of the grass, and was surrounded by two fountains. You lifted your head up, and could see the sky and clouds, in an oval shape.  A strange sound was playing out of  speakers, that's make the space looks quite surreal. We love it and took many pictures !

Bath in a flash

  Two weeks ago, I finally visited Bath. Two friends and I took a bus to the Jane Austen city. I was happy to see through the window the cute cottages, as we were arriving in the town. So British !!
As we were wandering in the main high street for a nice pub to have lunch, a guy came to us. We were really surprised and glad. As he had some time to spare, he offered to lead us to a good pub he knew in a nearby street.
We had a really nice chat. He was from Bath, and told us he liked the city partly because, nearly wherever you looked, you could see the forest, and trees throughout the streets. It so nice to feel surround by nature !
He advised us a few streets to go, and pointed our attention to the architecture of the main buildings. For example, the crescent, the queen square and the circus, were all linked together, and maybe used to mean something quite magical or linked to witchcraft or the like, in the old days. So mysterious !

We had a nice full lunch in the Raven, and then visit the Roman Bath. A bit too expensive, and no very well explained, or guided, for a museum. They should put more money in the signage, or choose what they want to show, because well, a bit of moss on an antic stone is not so exotic. But maybe we should have taken the audio guide. héhé ! But well, you have to see it anyway. A roman antic bath, in a English city !!! So unusual !
We had a very short time in the town, so we went to have a snack in the park in front of the Crescent. I was a bit disappointed, as I was expecting something grandiose, like in The Duchess. But it’s lovely, to be honest, an then, suddenly, some hair balloon start to fly from behind the building. It was quite magic.
If we had more time, I wish to have wandered in the streets, visit some more vintage shops. we found an antic market just closing down as we were going back to the bus station. And time to visit the park near the river, or just go in a bar of a coffee shop and chilled.
But next time. Bath I will be back ! You’re so charming ! Actually, it’s seems a nice city just to go and learn English for a short while.

I just like this picture.

The Circus 

oh yes, I want a vintage Vuitton.

A mysterious street. 

Ciao Bath !

I was trying a vintage hair do, for the first time, with this great tutorial. So it was a bit weird to see me with curly hair ! 

But I will try again, I need to get better !
