Turns out you are joining the party a little late. But it's not your fault; no one informed you that we would stop posting in February 2009. Please know you are no less welcome for us having run out of booze and snacks.
So you know: I had always wanted to live in Paris. It's a common-enough dream. In December 2005, I hauled off and did it.
Our story begins here. French 75 documents my two-and-a-half-year stay in Paris, as well as the return visit I made several months after my departure. For the record: I still love the city as much as I ever did, visit as often as I can, and await the day when I can move back again, and for good; I just don't blog about it anymore.
In an adventure characterized by impulsiveness, uncertainty, high emotion, and delight, the only thing I wish I had done differently was to have made the pictures larger on the blog from the get-go. It took me months to realize how much nicer they look 500 px wide. Oh well.
Thank you for stopping by.
Happy reading/Bonne lecture,
Jean
