How I miss Paris

14 08 2008

It is definitely a city which you love or you hate. I and do not speak about touristic visits of a few days or weeks, I speak about really living in it. You take the good things and the bad things and eventually most of my friends are really good making those bad things pop out.

I personally do not care. I do not care if Parisians are arrogant and pretentious. The rest of French people (almost) are not . I do not care if the weather sucks. It is not worse than the one in Brussels at least.

I love the city, I love the ability to move freely and easily everwhere, I love buying the baguette in the nearest boulangerie when I feel like it or just walking to the nearest cafe. I love Sunday sushi nights and Chez Gladines. I miss the madeleines at breakfast and the wine at the parks. I miss the Palais de Tokyo and the Jardin de Luxembourg. Three days a week there are not enough. Two years are not enough.
