i love the Frenchie way, it's almost like a ritual with French friends at meal times, taking out a different bottle of wine for each part of the meal, and talking about it, where it came from, the year, the weather that year, i love that...
Ha. Nice. We stayed in a 5th floor apartment on Ile St. Louis. We excused all the food we ate by saying we got lots of cardio on those stairs.
I drink too much
Re: France - I'm here now, for the second time in six months. My girlfriend has lived here since April, though she's coming home in February, just after me. It's great but I do hate how late everyone eats in Europe. If you're hungry at 6pm, bad fucking luck.
Yeah, starting dinner at 9pm was definitely an adjustment.
Where in France are you?
Le Marais. Awesome location. Very close to the 1 so it's very easy to get to all the touristy spots and the airport. And there's just a million awesome food joints everywhere. It's brilliant. Only drawback is my girlfriend's on the fifth floor of an apartment with no elevator

Berthillon is still there and as popular as ever, based on the lines. My parents spent a year in France when they were in grad school (1 semester in Paris, 1 in Pau) in the early 70s and had very fond memories of getting Berthillon on sunny days and just walking around the 4th. Their apartment was in the Marais.
It was pretty cool to be able to be in Paris 40+ years later and find some of the same places my parents used to go.
Anyone have a scouting report on Toulouse?
Oh all my friends hate me for it. Maybe in 10 years time I'll come to love it. After all if you'd told me three years ago that my most-consumed alcohol would be wine I'd have laughed for days.
I was at an open bar the other night and Redbreast was on the menu, but I already had a beer and an Eastside and I usually stop myself at two drinks unless I'm at home. It was a pleasant buzz.
haven't been down that way in about 20 years, but lovely area, nice warmer climate, and lots of places to see, loved Carcassonne... Aerospatial?? is that your field? a friend's dad used to work for them years ago, and used to be based there, still are i think!
Turin... you could almost pop across the border and make some Bono beach recordings.
What is your program? I presumed you were some sort of mathematician...
