Travel (and Giveaway) :: Packing for Paris

written by Natalie Ho 2014.04.09

As you’re reading this, I’ve just set foot in Paris a couple of hours ago! I am beyond excited to explore this romantic city. I can’t wait to explore the countless museums, cafes, gardens, and soak in all the Parisian culture. Being this my first trip to Paris, I’d really appreciate if you have any suggestions for me!

I am no newbie when it comes to travelling as I’ve done countless business trips in the past but travelling for leisure is just a different ball game! One of my goals during my short trip to Paris is to take some fantastic photos. I really don’t want to lug my DSLR around with several lenses (and let’s face it there aren’t really that many cute and compact DSLR camera bags out there). I was so thrilled to find an alternative solution with Henry’s Rentals. I am taking along the Fuji X100S point and shoot camera with me c/o of Henry’s. I can’t tell you how excited I am to try this top of the line point and shoot!

The Fuji x100S is so much better than other cameras because it weighs so much less than anything else, and with its ultrafast sync speed, easily balanced its built-in always-ready flash with full daylight. If I were to purchase this bad boy it currently retails for a whooping $1300. So I’m so glad Henry’s offers this as a rental for a fraction of the price.

For you travel bugs or just someone who wants to try out a new lense (my personal fav is the Canon 50mm lense) or camera before buying, or even missing equipment for your next shoot, I’m running a giveaway with Henry’s Rentals for your chance to win 1 of 3 $60 gift card (Ontario Residents Only).

Keep reading for some of my other packing tips and enter the giveaway using the widget below!

I’m also sharing some additional travel/packing tips with you! When I travel I can’t leave without packing a few must have items. These include a convertible, wrinkle free dress from Henkaa (the blue rolled-up sushi look alike item in my suit case); a retractable umbrella; shoe clips to transform an ordinary pair of shoes into something special (saves packing multiple pairs of shoes!); on the go cuticle oil, easy breezy blouses and floral dresses (shown here are my MINKPINK floral dress and Joe Fresh blouse).

Generally I do not read post on blogs, however I wish to say that this write-up very pressured me to try
and do so! Your writing style has been surprised me.

Thanks, very nice post.
