Every now and then, come to see Paris!

I wondered how would it be to live here and I realized that maybe visiting is still better...

You know how a place that looks exciting, becomes something you get used to and start taking for granted after a while? Maybe it can happen with Paris, too. Today with Cristina we decided it would be only appropriate to pay the beautiful city a visit once a year or so. Book a hotel, walk around Champs Elysees, take the metro from one end to the other of the city, walk in Le Marais, have coffees every few hours, get to the hot croissants before 10am, speak a little French, and so on. It's refreshing!

I was doing something refreshing exactly a year ago, too: I was in New York for a McKinsey training, the best two weeks in the firm. I never thought I would do some of the crazy things we ended up doing for the final video. Too bad it got lost because it had everything, including dressed consultants throwing each other in the pool, chair races and other dangerous activities...all in the name of team building.

But the Paris air is getting through and invites me for a walk...I cannot resist. Farewell!
