the view from a Parisian window:

– our Parisian window,

all the better for its preceding walk from the train station, five-story spiral staircase climb, narrow hallway, and heavy door key on a first night in Paris.

Strasbourg, France: June 13, 2014 – July 12, 2014

Strasbourg was a lovely, old-and-new, homey kind of place to stay for a month. I was able to speak French, have an apartment, and become friends with 34 classmates from all over the world. We studied and watched football and took weekend trips and ate and drank and lived, together.

It was exquisite.
