Oh Parí! When people say ‘Paris is always a good idea’, they are absolutely right! What’s not to like about the prettiest and most romantic city in Europe (and maybe on earth!)?

I had been to Paris many time when I was younger for dance classes and events, but I never really cared for it.

This July I went back to shoot for my project Quest for Beauty and to catch up with some old friends. I stayed in Montmartre, my favorite neighborhood in Paris, and while walking around the street and alleys I imagined how it would have been to live there during the bohemian years among artists and philosophers and I slowly and inevitably fell in love with Paris! (sidenote: If there are such things as previous lives I think In one of mine I was probably a Moulin rouge dancer in the late 1800s!)

Here are 15 photos that will make you want to fly to Paris on a whim!
