So I leave Paris on Saturday to go home for Christmas. I was
sat looking out across the city on the first level of the Eiffel Tower
pondering life in a typically French and philosophical way. I’ve always known
since the first day I decided to move to Paris that I was lucky for the
experience but it’s only really hit me properly this week. Maybe this has
something to do with leaving for three weeks this weekend but either way I feel
incredibly lucky to be here.
Walking to my exam on Monday the sun was glistening on the
top of Invalides. A sight I know I will never tire of. Yesterday walking around
Musee d’Orsay was just as fabulous. To have so many great paintings on my
doorstep is truly magical. Then sat gazing out across the city I thought of all
of the friends I’ve made so far. From university and just random people in bars
alike. Although I don’t get so much banter from the random bar friends!
I never wanted to get too deep on this blog, it isn’t very
me. But after 4 months of being here I’ve really started to appreciate the
important things. Mostly the people around you. So this is a shout-out to them.
I didn’t think I’d get emotional saying bye to everyone going home but I did.
So guys, party at mine when we all return?!
