Life seems to have sped up this year, hasn’t it? Definitely happy to be busy, but I’m going to have to work harder to make the quiet moments a priority- and maybe get up earlier to catch a sunrise or two until the sun starts setting later ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
La vie a déjà beaucoup accéléré cette année, pour vous aussi ? Je suis vraiment contente d’etre occupée mais je vais devoir faire un effort pour prioritiser les moments tranquilles- et peut-être me reveiller plus tôt pour capter des levers de soleil ✨

This isn’t the caption I originally wrote, which was essentially venting about my frustration with feeling my life is in others’ hands. Today was a good reminder that when that happens, all you can do is keep working, keep hoping, keep trying- and sometimes, things do actually work out ✨

Could use some more sunsets like these around here (and maybe a metro to get to a good spot to capture them, hmm?) ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
On a bien besoin de plus de couchers de soleil comme celui-ci (et peut-être un metro pour se rendre au bon endroit pour les voir hein) ✨

If only every Monday morning could start this way- coffee, croissants, and culture ☕️

And it ain’t slowing down, this merry go round ✨ can’t believe we’re already at the end of the first weekend of 2020! Anyone else already feeling like they should have been more productive these last few days?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Un tour de manège autour de nos vies, pour voir si le voyage vaut le coup ✨ j’arrive pas à croire que nous sommes deja à la fin du premier week-end de 2020 ! Il me semble que j’aurais dû être beaucoup plus productive ces dernier jours, vous aussi ?

Staying updated on my current events (and if you’re paying any attention to the news, wine is necessary) 🍷

Me tenir au courant de l’actualité (et si vous le faites aussi vous savez que le vin est nécessaire) 🍷

This is your year to shine ✨ happy new year to all! This year is going to bring about a lot of changes in my life, and while I’m hoping all goes according to plan, it doesn’t usually happen that way does it? In any case, I’ve chosen a word for the year for the first time: DEDICATION. Keep on keeping on and the changes will come ✨ What’s your word for 2020?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Vous allez briller cette année ✨ bonne année à tous ! Il y aura beaucoup de changements dans ma vie cette année, et bien que j’espere que tout se passe comme prévu, ça n’arrive pas toujours n’est-ce pas ? De toute façon, j’ai choisi un mot pour l’année pour la premiere fois: TÉNACITÉ. On lâche pas l’affaire pour faire les changements nécessaires. Et vous, avez-vous choisi un mot pour 2020 ?

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard ✨ I’m not going to sit here and say “deep down I’m a small-town girl”, because I feel equally as comfortable (if not more so) in large cities. But this little college town has made up so much of who I am, and brought me so many of the people I love. Leaving is always hard, but it’s nice knowing it’s always there 💙
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Comme je suis chanceuse d’avoir quelque chose à qui il est si dur de dire au revoir ✨ je ne vais pas vous dire « au fond je suis juste une fille provinciale » car je suis aussi à l’aise dans les grandes villes, mais cette petite ville universitaire m’a beaucoup apportée et fera toujours une grande partie de moi. Partir c’est toujours difficile, mais c’est réconfortant de savoir qu’elle sera toujours là 💙
