Today was quite eventful ... well at least tonight was, but I'll get to that. First off I went in to the Marshlands and had a look around there with Anaëlle. It's like a really funky part of town with all these querky little shops and sculptures and buildings. It was quite cool actually. But after that we took a subway to Opéra station, which is suprisingly enough a part of town with a lot of theatres, to go see the movie "The social network" at a c...

Today I went to the Musée D'orsay which is a museum/ art gallery with a lot of cool sculptures and heaps of different paintings. But before actually going in to the museum I got a bruscetta and chocolate croissant from this little café and then ate it on the bank of the Seinne, so that was nice. But the museum itself was quite a big place so it took quite a while to get around and see everything including all the Van Gogh section which was packed of course. B...

I just had a fallafel that they called "the ...

Today, after spending the morning playing piano and working on a new song and going on skype, I somehow figured out how to use the Paris subway to get to the Champs Èlysées and I had a good walk along there all the way up to the Arc de Triomphe and then back. But I'll definitelyo back to the Arc because apparently you go on top of it and I think inside it as well. But around that whole area is eat with the louvre and the Eiffel tower around there as well, so I'...
