Paris is a city that can really make you face your singleness head on at times, and depending on your mood on any given day that can be a welcome experience or the most depressing thing in the world. I've been here almost four years, and Valentine's Day beside the Eiffel Tower is quite the treat I hope you get to experience! :) This is a beautiful piece. I enjoy your writing so much - its lyrical and colloquial at the same time, meaning I can get lost in it and then I'm pulled back to reality with a modern-day reference or turn of phrase. Anyway, all that to say I really enjoy when your essays land in my inbox :)

Thank you for your kind comment <3 in general, I quite like being single in Paris compared to other places I've lived. I feel like it's quite easy to also romanticise being alone here haha p.s. let me know if you ever want to get a coffee, still very new here and looking to make friends ♥️

Oh it's so easy to romanticise everything you do! Main character energy is basically the default here. I'd love to get a coffee sometime - that would be so nice! Feel free to DM me ♥️
