We’ll do it our way now- handmade gifts under the tree, stockings for our neighbors who didn’t have anywhere to go, a warm homemade breakfast to fill our bellies, a house full of people we’ve known for ages and people we hope to know more.

THE WAY WE WERE SO CONFUSED HAHAHA 🤣

Calling a waiter in Japan for the first time was hilarious! In Japan, you have to raise your hand and yell "sumimasen" (which means "excuse me"). It felt so weird at first, but it's not rude at all here. We finally did it, and to be honest we were never so hyped to order food ha

A woman walks on a Parisian street holding baguettes, with the Eiffel Tower visible in the background. The image has text overlays 'Paris Mistakes to avoid' and 'lemon8 @famenotrequired', setting the theme for travel tips.

Three baguettes are held up against a Parisian street scene with the Eiffel Tower in the distance. Text overlays 'PAYING FOR THE METRO EACH TIME' and 'Save €€ with the Navigo Pass' highlight a travel tip.

The Eiffel Tower is brightly lit at night. Text overlays 'USING APPLE MAPS' and 'even if you're an avid Apple Maps user, make the switch' advise against using Apple Maps for navigation in Paris.
