Antwerp: My Shopping of The Spring-Summer Trends (Stop 1)

Marathon day between each press offices of Antwerp to discover their new beauty products, accessories and collections for spring-summer 2013. I also found few “other” funny things. After getting lost 30 minutes in the opposite direction, I passed the Opera house (amazing poster) to finally arrive at PR Style. I had a crush on the Sushi Kit of Saitaku (yes it’s food!) for two people which includes in addition to the ingredients, the set to make sushi: Itadaki masu! I didn’t taste them yet, but I love the concept!

DESTINATIONS & LIFESTYLE

 

East Sussex, UK: A Walk In The Old City Of Hastings

A post for all those looking a different destination for a relaxing weekend : here is Hastings in East Sussex, England. Forget immediatly your party animal temper to switch to “a deep seaside breath” only. I recommend the hyperactive, a homeopathic dose of two days, no more. Enjoy the pictures in my tour of the old town of Hastings. Picture 1: view down to the fishing area, with the amazing Net shops (picture 2), black wooden huts erected in height, where fishermen traditionally ranked their nets and fishing equipment. Absolutely new for me! Near the net shops, I also discover @ the Jerwood Gallery, some British painters of the 20th century and 21st (post to come). Pictures 3 & 4: typical narrow street of the old Hastings leads to an English gardens! Then I reach some shopping streets, with many small antique shops, full of miscellaneous objects completely surreal, like in “The Advengers” (last picture).

Informations : to go to Hastings by Ferry FDS Seaways from  Dunkerque to Dover, www.norfolkline.com, www.visit1066country.com.

DESTINATIONS & HOTEL REVIEWS

 

Berlin, Germany: Alexanderplatz, A Little Shop & Communist Remains

Why going to Alexanderplatz?

For its architectural remains of the communist era. See how the architecture of the late sixties (even restaured) remains an absolute ugliness! It’s so ugly that it could lead to a kind of aesthetic which reminds me of the excellent German film Good bye Lenin by Wolfgang Becker with Daniel Brühl! 

Picture below: The Urania-Weltzeituhr, the universal clock dating from 1969. You can also go there for very practical reasons: the Park Inn (hotel opened in 1970!), The Kaufhof Galeria department store (for his food center), near the quaint streets of the trendy Mitte.

And the little souvenir gift shop, Aus Berlin: Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse 17, open from 10am to 10pm (pictured above).
