This is my first day in Paris. I am here for a four week stay, with occasional side trips to places like Cologne, Dublin and T\u00fcbingen. As long as I qm, you know, in the neighborhood. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
And not just Paris. I am staying in a swank Haussmainnian flat (you could look it up<\/a>) in the 17th Arrondissement<\/i>. It’s one of those places where you look around and think “Wow, what a large and lovely and elegant apartment!”, and congratulate yourself on lucking out.

I know that I will spend hours roaming the City of Lights, crossing Pont Neuf<\/i>, wandering through Le Marais<\/i>, communing with the statues at the Mus\u00e9e Rodin<\/i>.<\/p>\n And then I’m going to come back here and get some serious programming done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is my first day in Paris.
