Greetings from Annecy!

Hmm, well, not exactly, as I'm back now, but today I had a day trip in Annecy! It's a lovely town in Savoy, not so far from Switzerland, and about 150 km away from Lyon, where I live.
It's famous for its lake, where I spent quite a lot of the day, actually.
Here are some pictures I took:

Too bad I didn't bring some letters with me, because it would have been so great to write there!

So after spending some time enjoying the sun (and getting sun burnt >.<) I walked around the city and found some interesting things...

First, postcards. They're so cheap there! I got these 10 cards for only 3.50 euros! When I buy postcards in Lyon, I pay 1 euro per card, so for 10 cards I would have paid 10 euros.
I'll send them with the 10 next letters I'll write :)

Second, a lovely tea shop where I found my favourite kind of tea: rooibos tea. It's so damn hard to find some, usually.

And lastly, I found stationery! Two nice letters sets. And I paid only 4 euros for these 2 boxes! So great!


Sounds like I will definitely do back to Annecy one day... :)

  1. I loooove the letter sets! And they were cheap as well. I will make sure to send some tea in my next letters. I am no fan, but I do receive quite a lot and tea is easy to find with all the national brands.
