Paris

I love Paris but I don't know if I could live here. It's too urban for me. There is lot of green space but the streets are too dirty. So many people piled on top of one another.

​But part of me wants to live here, the architecture is amazing, the food wonderful, and the art is everywhere. Perhaps for a year, long enough to become part of the neighborhood and get a taste. And maybe that would be long enough to properly see the Louvre. Could you imagine going on a weekly basis or even working there?

Things I have seen and done here:
  • The Lourve late at night, quiet and mysterious
  • Three year olds with better scarf tying skills than me
  • Renoir Garden and studio, it felt like home.
  • The last Vineyard in Montmartre
  • Hung out by the Seine
  • Talked to local artists
  • Had great political conversations with locals
  • Walked up and down Montmarte many, many times
  • Figured out the Metro
  • Wandered backstreets and alleys
  • Ate good food
  • Saw the Modern Masters at Pompidou
  • Drinking café at the bar like a local
  • Monet's water lilies
