Paris is little spaces

As most of you know and as I have mentioned it a couple of times in my blog (well,yea, all in turkish,sorry!)I am mostly settled in Paris after a little traumatic housing experience...
So now, I have started to hang out in "Café"s rather than walking up and down the streets looking for real estate agencies or visiting appartments. As I visit bookshops, get coffees here and there, I have realised how little personal space you get in Paris whether in your house or out on the street or even in shops anywhere in town... You can not stop in front of a bookshelf and get some time for yourself to look around, you gotta let people pass or you gotta move out of the way just in a few seconds after you spot what you need in the shop. The situation is not any better when you wanna sit down and breathe a little; you only get enough space for your ass in the Café because the person sitting at the next table is just next to your shoulder also squeezed in his/her chair getting some coffee.

Even so, Paris seems lively and artsy and stylish. You wanna dress up, get your music in your ears and walk the streets to run into a nice park or a nice boutique which seduces you. So I am looking forward to the upcoming year to enjoy the little time I have in Paris, study as much as I can and the rest of the time to enjoy what Paris has to offer, a little Opera or art exhibition or a fashion show maybe throughout the year!
