Europe 101

OK, why did I never think of coming to visit Europe until now? So far, it is very very beautiful. I loved the bikes zipping all about the Netherlands, and the ornate and grand architecture of Brussels... wow...

I feel like I am in a storybook.

Today I am in Paris and off to explore the famous parts of the city. Is there any other Paris out there?

I am staying in 14e and love to see older women hang their sheets on their tiny Romeo and Juliet balconies, or poke there head out and chat with a neighbour, someone down below, or just peer out at the world going by. Really, it is like all those old movies. Who would have thought the Paris on film is so close to the Paris I am seeing out of my friend's apartment window?

Off to go explore more....
