Urban Vacation: Paris Notes

Champs-de-Mars as seen from Le Palais de Tokyo

Note: This draft for this article was written a little over a week before it’s posting.

I pull out my netbook to write this review as I begin the second leg of a nineteen-hour, transatlantic journey back home to Calgary. A cup of coffee has put me in the right mood to reflect on and write about my travels as of late. This morning I was in the top floor of an apartment in the 1st arrondissement of Paris, about four blocks from Musée de Louvre. Aweek before that, I was finishing up packing my room after a year of postgraduate studies in Nova Scotia.

It’s been a long week.
