C'est merveilleux! Brought back memories from--gasp!--1966, when I lived in Aix-en-Provence after my first two years at U of A. I lived with a French famille, so I got the best of French home cooking. J'aime La France et oui, je parle francais "assez bien", and at times think if things really go "south" in America, I could enjoy living there again...bonne chance et bon appetit!
This is fascinating! Thank you. I love hearing observations on the human condition from different countries. Lord knows before the pandemic shut down travel I was asked what happened to America in countries I traveled to after Trump was elected. They were seriously upset at what was happening in America. They were also more forthcoming when I explained I certainly never voted for the fool. So keep sending us posts from everywhere you travel. I love it!
Finland is ranked #1 happiest country in the world. Find out why while you are there. Also, their thoughts about being so close to Russia with Putin on the loose.
Love Paris. Steven your observations and writing are inspiring. Thanks for sharing your marvelous trip. Gratitude, yes, seems to be sadly lacking in many places.

Thank you so much for taking us along with you on your travels, Steven. Please keep these postcards coming.
What a pity you did not stop in the Netherlands. I would have bought you breakfast and a coffee!!

Wonderful post! Makes me want to be a Danish female journalist from Brazil!
What a joy to see your Parisian photos and read your impressions. Please continue to include us in Finland with you. Merci beaucoup.

Looks great. Glad you can travel and hopefully stay safe. Finland should be interesting anyway so close to Russia.
Being a country boy, all cities I have visited are faves but, Paris is top of my list, so thank you for sharing.
It’s good to be an American in Paris.
