"Six years ago, we were deciding where to go on holiday and we decided it would be fun to go to filming locations. But rather than just go to them, we decided to recreate scenes to prove it was actually the right location. We didn-t really think it would work, but we just gave it a try and it worked better than we thought!" said Schneider, a journalist, to MailOnline Travel.
The couple replicates the scenes by using matching character outfits and poses. They then post images of their amazing recreations on their Instagram page, Secret Famous Places.

Most of us would kill for a job, that involves little work and a steady paycheque. A manager at a Parisian perfumery, Frederic Desnard, disagrees. Desnard sued his former employer, Interparfum, because his job was boring. He claimed that it was so boring that it made him depressed and he was forced to quit in 2015. He alleged that the company signed him off work for several months, and later used his prolonged absence as an excuse to fire him.
After four years of being embroiled in a legal battle, he recently won the trial and a 45,000 R34 lakh approx. compensation. "I was depressed. I was ashamed to be paid to do nothing. The worse part of it was denying this suffering," the 48-year-old told AFP. The Paris Court of Appeal ruled that Frederic Desnard suffered from "bore out," which is the opposite of a burnout. It asserted that Desnard underwent moral harassment.
