🇬🇧 The island of Formentera. It's a very special place for me, I have a lot of memories there with my friends or with my family, especially with my sister and my mother. We spend a few days there every year. When I arrive in Formentera, I really feel a special energy: a feeling of freedom, calm and peace.
🇬🇧 Formentera. It's a very special place for me, I have lots of memories there with friends and family, specially with my sister and my mother, we spend some days on the island together every summer for a few years. When I arrive at the island, I can feel its energy, it's a very strong feeling of freedom, peace and calm.
Over there, my little corners of paradise are…
MIREN ALOS
🇬🇧 There are so many! But if I have to choose a few: a small cabin in a secret location on the highest cliff on the island, with an incredible view. There is no network, we are in the middle of nature, it's magnificent! Then, Casa Manuela, a very beautiful house that I discovered recently, surrounded by nature and bougainvillea. The beaches of Espalmador, Tranamuntana, Es Caló, Caló des Morts or Cala Saona out of season. La Mola lighthouse, in the afternoon, to enjoy the view at sunset. I also add my favorite restaurants: Blat Picat for breakfast, Blue Bar and Can Carlitos for dinner with the sunset, Ca Na Pepa, Ca Na Joana, Sa Sequí, Bona Espina, Il Gioviale, and El Pelayo bars gold Kiosko 62.
🇬🇧 I love a lot of places on the island but if I have to choose some : a little cabin in a secret location on the highest cliff of the island with the most beautiful views.There's no connection, just nature. It's breathtaking. Also Casa Manuela, a beautiful house I've just discovered. So special, full of buganvillas and surrounded by nature. Espalmador and some little beaches in Tramuntana, Es Caló, Caló des Morts or Cala Saona out of season. La Mola lighthouse, in the afternoon, to enjoy the sea views while the colors of the sky are changing. I add some restaurants I really like as a recommendation: Blat Picat for breakfast, Blue Bar and Can Carlitos for sunset and dinner, Ca Na Pepa, Ca Na Joana, Sa Sequí, Bona Espina, Il Gioviale, and some chiringuitos like El Pelayo or Kiosko 62.
And in my suitcase, my summer Balzac Paris essentials are…

🇬🇧 My Calanque dress , my Mistral bag , my Champêtre hat and my Bobine sandals !
I take this opportunity to read...
MIREN ALOS
🇬🇧 “The sun and its flowers” by Rupi Kaur. It is a book of illustrated poetry that celebrates love and life in all its forms. If we interpret it, the sun could represent the woman, and the flowers could be the different encounters she has during her life.

And to listen all day...

🇬🇧 Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Nina Simone, Barry White, Ludovico Einaudi, Andrea Bocelli, “El Sitio de mi recreo” by Antonio Vega, Ed Maverick, Guitarrica de la fuente, Xavier Rudd, Maná, Jarabe de Palo... I love music. I can't imagine my life without music, and certainly not my holidays either! I always choose the music I listen to according to the moment I live.
