Hello Cambridge 🇬🇧

I didn't think I would say this but it does feel like I'm on holiday in Cambridge now. Even though I have lived here 15+ years and it feels like home. This city is so beautiful that whenever I am here, I feel like sitting at the backs of the colleges by the river, with a book..

If you have never been to Cambridge, you might want to add it to your list. You will feel like you have just stepped back in time, right back to the 19th century.. Be sure to go punting, as it is a lot of fun and so enjoyable, not mentioning the views.

I am leaving you with some beautiful photos of Cambridge.

till next time

Chocolate Mood 🍫

Today, I have created this little collage because Cambridge is such a chic city and I feel really happy to be living here at the moment. I love this mint colour of the Chocolate shop on St Andrews street.

Visit Cannes in September..

September.., the best month to be in Cannes. The heat is gone, the crowd is smaller. Soak up the sun during the day, then stroll along the Croisette late afternoon. In the evening enjoy a meal and a drink in one of the local restaurants. 

Travelling from London is pretty easy, with a quick change in Paris for the TGV train to Cannes. Just a couple of hours later the scenery changes and you begin hearing:

La mer..
Des reflets changeants
Sous la pluie
La mer..
Au ciel d'été.. 🎧⛱🌞

Read more about Cannes on my Mediterranean Travels blog. This illustration is available as a planner dashboard and an art print from my Etsy shop Patricia Atelier.

Villefranche, France - strolling and market shopping

Villefranche-sur-Mer is a beautiful little French town. It is located between Monaco and Nice. We used to take the bus No 100 to Villefranche, and then after spending some time there, we would walk to the Cap Ferrat peninsula and make a little picnic on the beach. We love coming back here.

If you like this illustration, it is now available in my Etsy shop as a planner dashboard and wall art. I will soon write more about this beautiful, little village on my Mediterranean Travels blog, so hop over there if interested.

Dear Diary.. 🌸

This beautiful page in mint green is available as a set of three - plain, lined and dot grid, in size A5 and Personal in my Etsy Patricia Atelier. However, if you would like to create your own, it is very easy to do.
Just take three pages (blank, lined and dot grid) and cut to your preferred size. Then stick washi tape around each page, or create your own eg mint with white dots, then glue on to the pages. Create three separate bows, flowers or other decoration, cut out and glue to the top of all of your pages. You can also scan them in and print to create multiple copies. :)
