Un plan de google
Some fun with googlemaps, to show you where I live...
Most of Paris, with important landmarks marked. It is a bit small, but the largest I could upload. Chez moi is about a 10 minute walk from the Champs-Elysées and the horrendously ugly (I will have to take a photo of it to show you, because this place has certainly not made it onto any postcards) university is on the banks of the Seine, a short stroll from the Ile de Cité with the Notre Dame and less hunchbacks than some would have you believe.
A bit of a close up of my quartier, showing my building (google maps is so cool!) and the Seine and the Invalides lawns.
I've been a bit slack posting this week, and today am actually nursing a mild hangover, including a not-so-mild headache, so am not about to be rectifying that situation by in-depth analyses of anything at all. So you will have to wait until next week for a more comprehensive insight into french adventures (I say next week because we have yet another long weekend starting tomorrow! Yay France!).
What a great location. You're not just living in Paris, you're living IN PARIS! It must be great to be just a hop, skip and a little metro ride away from some of the worlds most famous and beautiful landmarks and city scapes. Quelle ambiance!
I wish. Maybe I'll just join the 4-day-week political party and lobby those punks in Canberra for a more France-like perspective to the working week.
