SANJIVA: Pariz iz malo drugačijeg ugla

Pariz je grad idilicnog kontrasta iz razloga sto ima fantasticno uklopljene neuklopljive ambijente. Na primer ova fotografija iz Bulonjske sume za koju ne bi mogao svaki parizanin da potvrditi odakle je.

Tipična planinska Švajcarka kućica koju je Napoleon poklonio svojoj supruzi Eugeniji u XIX veku,
nalazi se u Bulonjskoj šumi pored jezera.

Kafić koji je na prizemlju je svojevremeno bio glavno mesto okupljanja

pisaca kao što su Prust i Zola.

10 Awesome things about Living in Paris from http://joannagoddard.blogspot.com/

-Cheese. There is nothing like the quality and the variety of choices.
-Bread. Fresh warm bread is available on most streets to the average person for about 1 Euro.
-People Dress Well. Wearing yoga pants in public isn’t acceptable. You put on lipstick just to go around the corner to get bread.
-The city is beautiful. Light reflects off the white stone buildings in the most amazing ways.
-The French expect things from their government (in a good way.)
-Have you a had a croissant from the bakery first thing in the morning? It is life changing.
-People are well trained for their jobs. Even a vocation like a florist has years of training before they work.
-The French average 10 weeks of vacation a year. Americans average 3. (They got us on this one guys.)
-The Eiffel Tower sparkles. It sparkles!!!
-I feel much more supported as a mother. (There are places on the buses for moms with strollers, people will always stop to help you carry a stroller up and down the metro steps. Preschools are excellent and are state supported so they are free or cheap.)
