J'aime Paris

Surely it goes without saying that I love Paris. I also appreciate people, great stories (in books or film), gymnastics, music, and inspiration about Who and what matters.

Avant / Après 1905 - 2008 - 2025 Rue Legendre devant l'Eglise Sainte-Marie-des-Batignolles dans le 17ème arrondissement. On dirait bien que la photo de 2025 rappelle plus le "Paris d'avant" que la photo de 2008 avec les motos et les voitures garées ;)

Polish church. Mass on inside but the interior is really beautiful and the choir is lovely. Outside a market with vans full of items from Poland.

After mooching around Montmartre we took a boat tour along Canal St Martin and its tunnel and then onto the Seine. Quite pleasant (and a bit cold).

#BB28 I’m catching bits and pieces of the deep dive with Drew—largely because I wanted to know whether microaggressions would be addressed. It’s happening now. Drew said he has apologized to Taylor and wants to talk with her more. He says he is learning from it. He also called Lala. Convo ongoing.
