I’ve been here for a little over a month now and would like to highlight some of my favorite shops, things to do, etc. It’ll come in the next few posts or so. By no means is this an exhaustive list, nor adequately photographed. Somewhere in between Belinda leaving and Elizabeth coming, I grew tired of taking photos. Nothing really called out to me. But really, I was with two of my favorite people in the entire world, on the other side of the world. Also, can we take notice of how un-SEO optimized my headlines are? Ha.

Gerard Uferas’ Paris d’Amour exhibit at Hôtel de Ville (link): This was a free exhibit, which closes at the end of the month. I’ve been here quite a few times, once by myself and a couple of times with some girlfriends. Hôtel de Ville is the main mayor’s office in Paris and the exhibits here usually feature artists who have a direct tie with the city. While the exhibit is outwardly on wedding photography (in Paris), the underlying theme is the diversity of the city and the diversity of unions that come of it. It’s uplifting and if you’re in the area (M〫Hôtel de Ville), check it out — it’s free and just small enough to drop by before you go somewhere else. And as you’d expect from a wedding photography exhibit, it’s mostly women.

If you’d like to see the rest of the photos, they’re on my Flickr.
