Opéra

Bonsoir! Its actually my second night in Paris. The keyboard is very difficult to type because everything is arranged differently and alot of numbers and periods I have to use shift to access. But this, certainly does not count as anything negative when Musée du Louvre is less than 10 mins walk from the hotel I stay at, as well as Cafe de la Paix...!!!

Sorry for the minimal photos because i am just using hotel internet access on the ground floor.

So what have I discovered so far?
-When ur in Paris, u know ur in Paris

-Paris looks different and feels different from morning to night

-Coffee is not Starbucks, Coffee is the little cup of espresso full of enjoyment and enlightenment

-Calling is expensive and reception is sometimes not so good

-Wine is the same price as water in the restaurant, I am not kidding

( I got a carafe of red wine for 4.5 euro and a bottle of water for 4.3 euro!!)

I am sure I will have more things to add to the list as I stay for longer. I am just really absorbing everything at the moment and feeling very grately to be here. I know more charllenges is ahead of me from work to everyday life. I hope to make the best out of this.

Today I also checked in to my apt the first time. Its a cute apt on ground floor and I really like it. Except I can't get any phone reception inside the apt which is a big problem...well, more update soon!

Au revoir!
