Paris, one year
- juin 29, 2020

A chaotic and stressful move, the heatwave and an almost broken rented van. The Sacré Cœur, Eiffel Tower and Panthéon. Walking along the Canal St Martin or La Villette. Finding new friends and seeing older ones. Léo, early mornings and lots of tea. Grumpy faces in the metro, late trains and strikes. Lots of walking along the Seine, sight seeing and touristic visits. The stairs of Montmartre, late summer pictures and love. Lots of love.
Today, I took the tube and I got out
of the metro at Opéra. I went out, and the Opéra Garnier was just sitting
there, right in front of me. I’ve seen it plenty of times now, but I was still
amazed. Me, I was standing in the middle of Paris. I city I now call “home”. I
still smile and have those big bright eyes whenever I see something as majestic
as this. The Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Sacré Cœur. It’s magic. Today has
been one year since I live in Paris, since I’m part of those grumpy French. It’s
been a year since I live in this beautiful city and can now call it home. It
feels right, I am exactly where I need to be, with whom I want to be.
But bloody hell, I miss fresh air!
