Paris may be known as the world class high fashion, cheese, wine and other luxuries destinations, and it’s also where you can find the oddest and most eccentric shops you could think of.

As you know from my previous journals or instagram posts, I’ve been quite a loyal AirBnb user. It has many times saved me from unnecessary hotel splurge whenever I travel, especially on longer period of stay. I still stick to hotels on a one or two night trips (because of the efficiency, 24 hours check-in … Continue Reading

Heck, I suffered it for many many years (and I still doubt myself every single day… just not half as bad as before.)
