chenonceau

more than twenty days have passed since my last post.

i really feel like i have no time for anything lately...

but that's not entirely true since i went last weekend to berlin. 

it was my first time in germany. and i loved feeling like a real turist again :)

i turned 27 on the 17th and tó gave me a smartphone - i guess he had it with hearing me sigh for an instagram account... haha. so now that i finally have one, feel free to follow me :)

but for the moment i'd like to share some photos of the 2nd castle we visited in the loire region - chenonceau.

ever since i saw a photo of this bridge-castle on the internet i knew i had to see it!

it was quite a gloomy day, but its gardens were kind of magical. we wandered around outside just until it started pouring rain... then it was time to enter in this unique castle :)

chambord

in my last post i had said we had done a little trip to a couple of castles.

i finally got the photos back (well some of them)

and thus i'm sharing them with you.

this is château de chambord. we got there only an hour and a half before closing time, but it was time enought to be overwhelmed.

i think i went a little overboard with the photos of the towers, but i took them as we walked through the different paths of the castle. from any point in the castle you were led to a gallery that overlooked the enumerous towers, as well as the courtyard. there was a stunning staircase in double spiral with zenital light that i didn't manage to capture well on film...

still i think you can get a glimpse of the intricate castle of chambord from these :)
