Cette photo montre les couleurs de Paris. Cette photo montre la diversité de Paris. Cette photo montre le vrai <> de Paris. Et 670 euros? C'est 841.86 dollars par mois.

My idealistic side wants to believe that there are some places in the world which are always glamorous, like Paris, for example, but of course this is not so. Unfortunately, life has been very unglamorous for many of us these days . I don't mean to be a downer, but it's the truth. But your blog is always a ray of light, thanks again.ann p.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-3960374258609686602010-07-03T14:32:09.622+02:002010-07-03T14:32:09.622+02:00:) Thank you Eric.

Also because it was in Paris. And maybe also because I was not living under the roofs where it must have been unbreathable today with the boiling weather we had. <br />I think it is better now.

I survived.<br />Yes, it's run down but take away the washing, tart it up, put some flowers out and it wouldn't look that bad, maybe sell it as a bijou studio apartment when gentrification eventually arrives in the area.<br />Or it could be used as the location for a downmarket Parisian remake of Barefoot in the Park.<br /><br />-So there are some poor people in Paris - how inconvenient, what with them hanging out their dirty linen in public and making the place look untidy.<br />There are millions of people for whom a place of their own in a civilised country with 670 euros a month would be beyond their wildest dreams.

This person looks like they work hard to take care of things and make sure that they're living the best life that they can, in spite of, or possibly because of their circumstances.

Your comment is meeting my French language sensility ;)<br />Here is what I found in a on-line dictionary :<br /><br />> bohème<br />(adjectif et nom commun)<br />Qui vit en dehors des règles bourgeoises, sans prévoir l'avenir.<br />La bohème: l'ensemble des gens qui mènent une vie de bohème.<br />Cette vie.<br />> bohême<br />(adjectif)<br />Morave.<br /><br />So, I think that the word here in Eric's title should not be written with a circumflex but with a grave (bohème). <br />Which is also true concerning my first comment above. Charles Aznavour song is 'la bohème'.<br />I've again learnt something today.
