Bonjour, Paris

Some highlights from my first few days in Paris! My feet are raw and blistered from wandering the Marais district and throughout Montmartre all day, and I've never been happier.  It's such a pleasure to get to know Paris on my own, without being constrained by a study abroad group like I was on my last visit.  The Marais and Montmartre are areas that particularly fascinate me, and I am delighted to finally explore at my own pace.  I'm also getting by quite well with my French, which has been very encouraging!
