And now I'm back.
Okay, this isn't the first time I have been back to Paris since then but this time it is for 5 weeks, and i'm a lot older, and i'm going to be working, and exploring the city all by myself. Anyone who knows me knows that that I have been obsessed with Paris since forever. I suppose since I was born here! I have canvases in my room of the Eiffel Tower, a map of Paris on my wall, the Eiffel Tower on my necklace, countless items of clothing relating to Paris and/or France etc. So for me to be living here is kind of crazy and almost like a dream come true. And if that weren't good enough the reason that I am here is for an internship with a top fashion company, and everyone knows my second favourite thing after Paris is fashion. So to be working for a fashion company in Paris is extremely exciting and finally it is happening. I am moved in to my petite studio à Paris and I start work at 9.30 tomorrow morning.
Paris is known as the city of love. I think having been here now 24 hours I can see why. It is so very easy to fall in love with this city. Yesterday I sat down in a cafe with a warm baguette, ordered an orangina and within minutes there is an old lady playing the accordian. So french, so perfect. If only my french was so french and so perfect...
Even the underground system looks chic and Parisian. I think it will making getting on a train at 9am tomorrow morning a bit more bare able for someone who is not usually a morning person. I've also scoped out where I will get my morning pain au raisin on the way to the office.
Parfait.
