Photo of the Day: Paris Cafés
I can’t help but be charmed by the Parisian cafés with their quintessential chairs spilling out onto the street. (Be forewarned though that you pay a premium for the prime real estate. It’s much cheaper to get a cup of coffee at the bar, although I still haven’t found good coffee in Paris.)

Paris – The Beginning
“I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness, still another mile…”
If I had to choose one theme song that would define the last year of my life, this would be it. I’d never actually thought about it and I definitely did not stand up on my desk in my cubicle at work to spontaneously burst into song (that happens only in Abba musicals). But I recently found myself quietly humming this to myself on a quiet street as I waited to meet some new friends. I stopped and looked around and quickly drew in a deep breath as I realized that I was finally living my dream – I was in Paris! Not as a tourist, not on a short layover as I traveled for work, but as a bona fide resident.
