A Birthday in Paris/AKA My Main Character Moment

Friday was my birthday, and I got to spend it in the most magical city on earth! Went to the Picasso Museum, and it was amazing. It fulfilled a childhood dream that I’ve always had. Picasso is my favorite artist of all time. I used to walk down to my neighbor’s house who was a museum curator and read his books on Picasso all the time, to the point that he started giving them to me.

This was the best birthday I ever had! Not only did we go to the Picasso Museum and the Victor Hugo house, we also got to go back to some of the places that the class visited and get some cool photos! It was really nice to return to these areas and reflect on what was talked about during class, but on my own time frame.

We ended the night by doing the most french thing over, having a picnic! We went back to the park behind the Cite Universitaire and enjoyed an amazing meal! I love the eating culture here in France! It is so much fun to just slow down and enjoy your meal with your friends. Being able to have a couple hours to just vibe with your friends is amazing! Thank you so much Ellie and Evan for spending the day with me!
