Paris: A Year Abroad in a short film
Audio: "Burnt Norton" by Lana Del Rey, a rendition of the original poem "Burnt Norton" by T.S. Eliot.
Where do I even start? Paris has wholly shaped me in ways I never imagined. We refer to Paris as the city of love, but I'm now more inclined to call it the city of art - which only leaves more room for love in your heart. There is so much to contemplate and appreciate in frequenting the vast array of art museums here - from the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, Musée de l’Orangerie, the Centre Georges Pompidou, and many more. Not only has my perspective on art expanded, but so has my worldview. That’s because art is truly everywhere in this city; art can be found in the walkable streets amidst the rich architecture, the fashionable outfits seen in daily life, and even the exquisite decor in stores and when you cheekily peek into Parisian appartments!

There's always something new to discover in Paris, I'm almost saddened at the thought of the things I've yet to discover or missed. The treasures to unveil in Paris move far beyond the typical tourist hotspots we all know and love. I am obsessed with Parisian boutiques; they are chic and unique (that unintentionally rhymed) in the best way possible. One of my favourites is La Tonkinoise à Paris, located in the 11th arrondissement. This particular arrondissmenet is the best in Paris to be honest, it holds a special place in my heart as I had the wonderful opportunity of living there, so perhaps you can say that I am somewhat biased. Still, I can confidently say that this animated, hip and creative neighbourhood is one everyone should have the chance to explore.

La Tonkinoise à Paris, owned by the lovely Chantal, is my favourite hidden gem in Paris. I had the pleasure of befriending Chantal as I ended up frequenting her store one too many times; I've garnered quite a collection over time. This boutique offers a wide range of eccentric and sustainable jewellery, with her earring creations being the show stoppers, in my opinion. Her jewellery is composed of rings, pearls, brooches, charms, and watches, all unearthed in flea markets and recycled. I love that every piece of jewellery indeed is a unique piece. The decor changes based on the season and theme of her new collections, making it an ever-changing and exciting shopping experience. This is honestly the best jewellery store I have ever been to in my life! I wish the pictures I took could do the jewellery and the boutique's decor justice, but it simply won't, I'm afraid.

Now, onto food, I genuinely need to figure out where to start here. My favourite authentic French restaurant would have to be 'Le Potager du Père Thierry', located in Montmartre. Although it's incredibly small, I love the cosy vibe; I feel like I can enjoy delicious food with friends without feeling surrounded by strangers. Surprisingly, it's also very quiet (yet packed) - I guess the food is just too distracting.
As of late, my favourite non-french restaurant has to be 'Big Black Cook' (let's ignore how inappropriate that pun is, though funny). It's located in the 2nd arrondissement and serves Caribbean food, my friend claims that it was the best meat she's had!
For brunch, I recommend Café Méricourt in the 11th arrondissement. Their green Eggs & Feta are absolutely incredible and quite innovative as far as brunch places go.
As for a boulangerie - seriously, anywhere, literally anywhere in Paris, go to your nearest bakery; there need not be a big fuss - you're in for a scrumptious baked treat regardless!
Tumblr media
I'm ever so grateful for the chance to have lived in Paris for an extended period; you cannot appreciate Paris in its entire splendour from a mere short-term visit. The city is an actual work of art; art is everywhere in the city, from the street performers and musicians, the light filters through the trees, the city's many architecturally rich bridges, the picturesque cafés and boulangeries, the beautifully presented food, the way that the city's many different neighbourhoods each have their own distinct character and vibe. In Paris, art is everywhere.

I purchased this postcard online of the Monument de Gavarni in the Place Saint-Georges, 9e arrondissement Paris! Hopefully it arrives before my birthday in July; who knows when, if ever, I will see this in person.
The statue and fountain was built in the early 20th century, and this undated postcard looks contemporary. I'm envious of the people who can walk right up to it in what looks like a pedestrian-friendly environment, because I know that today it's surrounded by a fence and in the middle of a traffic circle. As of 2021 the fountain was working, following a restoration.
The figures on the column represent the Carnaval de Paris (to the disappointment of my wife, who thought that was Gavarni dressed as a clown), including a débardeuse. Gavarni is immortalised by women in pants, and I think that's wonderful. 😌

Montmartre, Paris
Montmartre is one of the most popular neighborhoods in Paris. Located in the 18th arrondissement, in Northern Paris, Montmartre was a charming little village until the 19th century, when it became part of the French capital.
Over the years, Montmartre has been home to artists like Van Gogh and Picasso and the setting for movies like An American in Paris and Amélie. With all this history and culture, it’s not hard to find amazing things to do in Montmartre!

Père Noël (St. Nicholas aka Santa Claus), vitrine, Bon Marché, Paris, 2017.
Today is the feast day of St. Nicholas, a bishop in the early days of Christianity, who, in legend at least, gave gifts to the poor and oppressed. The legend has morphed into an image of the patron for the present day orgy of consumerism at the year-end holidays. This mannequin in the display window of a Paris department store is not quite the same as the image of Santa Claus expected in the US, a product of cocaine-cola advertising early in the 20th century. But both images are intended to drive consumerism of the "shop till you drop" variety..
