Things I Hate:

You and your boyfriend/girlfriend/alienfriend

French keyboards

Not having a cellphone in paris

The times in which I lack meaningful human contact

Bars that close early

Things I Love:

Bookshopping at Shakespeare and Co.

The spirit of Paris

the Archimboldo exhibit at Muse de Luxembourg

Subsisting on a diet of pastries and paninis

The way the Louvre is lit up at night

Hearing French everywhere

Not feeling like a tourist

Cute Austrian girls studying arts at le Sorbonne

super-sympa waiters at the Caf des Flores

Tons of streets that have no cars

The way you feel inside of Notre Dame

The ink and watercolor drawings of George Grosz and Otto Dix

The generosity of my French friends

Escargots

Free self-cleaning street toilets

Having a charcuterie platter at a rockabilly bar
