Sunday I received a text alerting me that my duty plan had been changed. It’s hard for me to lie and say I wasn’t a little annoyed but then I opened the website and saw… I’m going to PARIS… YES!!!! 

I first came to Paris almost exactly 2 years ago and I love it here. 

I immediately reminded myself how much I love Paris and told myself to remember opening that website slightly annoyed because in reality I am traveling and icing my life. 

This city feels like a second home. While flying to Paris I had the thought, maybe someday I could live here for a little while. 

Funnier even, while walking around the streets I realized people whom visit NYC can sometimes have the same feelings I have about Paris but about NYC. 

I walked around the city with a colleague and someone whom may become a friend. We took pictures of each other in any place that looked picturesque to either of our eyes that often take pictures of others and rarely have others take pictures of us. 

It was, in my opinion, a perfect use of our time in the city. 

We ate at a cafe, which was beyond delicious, (truffle risotto pictured)  then I picked up a few items. One of which for my sister. We then headed back to the hotel exhausted but I believe we were content.
