Yesterday after a gruelling session of last minute grammar revision, I took myself off for a walk. Down Rue St. Dom, under the Eiffel Tower and then on to the top of the Champs. The evening was almost balmy as I made my way through the ever un-quahsable amount of camera clutching tourists. A couple of times during my stroll I had moments of "oh-my-word-I-actually-live-here." To be fair these aren't uncommon but they have been in the last couple of months especially with the incessant days of inclement weather. They provide a warm, pudding-y kind of feeling right in the pit of my stomach and I despite it being a massive cliché the sight of the Eiffel Tower in the sun provokes this feeling probably more than any other sight in Paris and it's something that'll fondly miss while I'm away.
I love the sight of the people feasting their eyes on the view from the top of the Arc de Triomphe.
A bientot for now, I won't be gone long but until then, stay trendy, be safe and enjoy the sights in your life.
p.s. Happy Jour du Macaroon for yesterday!
