BIKRAM YOGA
It intrigues me.... I heard these words on every girls lips as I was taking the metro in Paris... BIKRAM YOGA...
i know yoga... but bikram..? so i googled it and this is what the site gave me..
this type of yoga comprises of 26 asanas or (postures) and 2 breathing excerises or pranayama.
To give you the essence, it stimulates your body , organs and the improves ones blood flow. It is a 90 minutes in a room filled with people heated at 42°C!!!!!
Believe me, I was in the room for 15mins and thought I would pass out!! but .. you hold yourself for those 90mins and you walk out like you're floating on your every own cloud... Serious ZEN.

Picasso at the grand palais - PARIS
Picasso
Pablo Ruiz Picasso is regarded as the greatest artist of the 20th century. He is the author of a vast number of works in different formats (paintings, sculptures, prints, ceramics, etc.). Moreover, he was able to take the different artist trends of his time to their ultimate expression, on which he left his own indelible hallmark. Picasso was born in Málaga, Spain.He lived and worked out of Paris for the larger part of his life , but due to his strong Spanish roots, he was deeply influenced by strong figures of the spanish art world like, Velazquez, El Greco etc.
We see a great of presenting the works in this exhibition in Paris where his early classical style work is strongly juxtaposed against his own works. The exhibition has cost a lot due to the cost and the worht of the insurance of the invaluable works being held under one roof here at the grand palais in Paris.
I advice everyone who live sin Paris to definitely take a look at this expo.

Fashion outside Paris
But honestly speaking there is NO fashion outside Paris... (Cannes being the other place).. and believe me i've traveled arounf France.. even in the bigger cities.. its a real shame..
people are so .. so.. casual.. for me thats just inexcusable...! we all have to dress up at least once in a while..
and those who are dressed well.. are .. again i'm sorry.. but so last year..?! not even mast season..
infact people outside of the city of Paris are mudane in their dressing and definitely not adventurous at all..
this is just something i had to say..
