the well pictured above is not really accessible, but once upon a time, this is where tunnel workers bathed their feet.
Where is death? It is always in the past or the future. No sooner is it present than it is already gone.

A quaint November outing
Montparnasse, 1782. Deep down a narrow winding staircase leading halfway to hell, lie the bones of 6 million French people once buried in cemeteries that became too overcrowded to host them.

Breakfast in Sweden
What is the best part about living in Paris? Why, its proximity to other European countries, of course! A week ago today, I went to Stockholm, and these photos still make my mouth water. There’s nothing like this in France! I guess I’ll just have to save my Euro pennies so that I may take more trips to more utopic lands that know how to serve comfort food and soy lattés in anarchist cafés…

The Berlin Ball
The Berlin Wall was erected in August of 1961 and destroyed in November of 1989, its total border once spanning 155 kilometres. Today, about 2 km of the wall remain, most of which is completely covered with the outdoor art gallery pictured above. Unfortunately, I was not able to part with any of my hard-earned euros for an east Berlin passport stamp. Bah, photos are better anyway!
