Pas de réservations!

So I just found out that Anthony Bourdain was in Brittany recently (as in the past few months, I believe) and filmed his show here. How did I miss this?? I love the dude AND this region!:


(YouTube has the rest of the parts)

Watching this episode made me happy and sad.. I recognize so many things and I couldn't be more ecstatic that Anthony Bourdain of all people chose to film it. On the other hand, I'll be leaving in two months and I'm just going to miss it, everything. That's all. If my pictures have seemed absolute crap, watch this episode. It'll put all my photos to shame, haha.

Cheers, and happy week!

Bretagne sud

The countdown begins: only 2 more months left. Still so much I haven't seen/done, yet if I went home tomorrow I would have no regrets. I'm going to miss this place, all of it.

Some pics from last weekend in the south of Brittany. Putting these up now b/c I've had some trouble uploading photos. Anyhoo. One of the English teachers who I'm very close to invited me and my roommates to go with her and her husband to their holiday pad in Le Pouldu. It's a pretty obscure little town, but Paul Gauguin once considered it his stomping ground, so that makes it sorta cool. Et voilà, for your visual pleasure:

Epik High - "Run"

My all-time favorite group Epik High just released their newest music video and the filmography is just beautiful (as is the song). Just downloaded their new album, "Epilogue" yesterday as well, giving my iTunes list a energy boost.

Do you have that one music artist who you love so much that you buy their albums regardless of how good or bad the content is? This is Epik High for me. I've been buying (read: not illegally downloading) their music since their 2nd album and so far they have yet to let me down. Only this time, they released a gorgeous music video at the same time. Sick.



And now for the actual vid:
