When it comes to developing a natural tongue, there are many of ways to explore that idea. We are all born with a native speech, a "mother tongue" if you will. Taking that stance to an elevated tone, learning a new language in other words, can open your eyes to a fresh viewpoint of the world. No matter the point of age or stage of life that we are in, a new cultural experience is a gateway for everflowing mantra to flow through! Let's explore this idea in real time -
A New Cafe Experience - Crepe, Please
It is an early Spring morning, light drizzles spray the outside surfaces and humidity doesn't quite settle in -
When you are thinking of a morning run before a busy day of work ahead, a tone is set for how you are to approach your set scene. The casual coffee shops and low-lighting sandwich hubs give the sensory of settle, steadiness, and brainstorming. The choice of location may give a new perspective to the everyday routine. Cafe culture in France is a key part of the experience when visiting the beautiful country! The list of shops and their accomodating moodsets vary from suburban to more rural as you decide what experience is best.
A difference in Parisian cafes is that they offer a larger menu with a larger kitchen to serve the daily coffee lover, with a lovely crepe on the side dish!
"La vie est meilleure avec une crepe."
Life is better with a crepe! -
France - A Fashionable Notion
As widely known, France is a vast hub for the world of fashion and embarks on years of history for strong-rooted relations in the space. Whether you are going to explore the style in real time or simply induldging in all that the area has to offer, learning the language can elevate your travels in both culture and expression!
As the Spring season begins to flow in, strolling the coddle stoned streets in a peplum dress or femme fatale stiletto is a element that heightens the day to day preliminary. In recent retail observations, clean-cut linens and textured hems that are tailored to perfection are enhancing the journey of style to a next-level involvement! For the formal season is upon us and many fashionable moments are set to evolve into memories. If you are interested in taking things a step further, connecting with natives through the French language can not only develop your precision and descriptive power, but it will cause a strong enlightment within your personal style! It is an element that will continue to carry on throughout your time and travels ahead.
A UX Reflection - Mindfulness
UX Design is in almost everything that we do - all activities and events considered. It is the focus on how a user experiences a product. A first-time visit to a Parisian cafe can give you a "first impression" on a certain food that you try, grand creme that is customarily served, or coffee spots in France as a whole. To enhance your act of ordering in a foreign location, learning the native language can aid in a smooth process for your edible enjoyment and increase clarity in French cuisines! While the location is on my list of travels, the act of learning the language has preset the sense of joy that the country undoubtedly creates upon exploring.
Overall, the complete cycle of user experience ends with the participation in a person, place or thing. This can tie into your personal growth or experience from it. Slowing down and observing the details - coffee, fashion, or self care in general can result in an overall analysis that leaves you with a grand question. How do I feel right now? Taking the time to engage after every moment can make it that much more intentional.
Language, style, design = Mindfulness as a framework for daily creativity and growth
The act of learning something new can open your eyes to a new world of thinking. The early months of a new year are a great time to set the foreground for a fresh mind of ideas to try! A new hobby, fun experience, or different fashion style can create grand memories to continue to build on.
