    This morning Tash and I decided to explore our neighbourhood a bit. We discovered that, in addition to the two grocery stores right below our apartment, there is also a sizeable fresh fruit, veggie, meat, seafood and cheese market (the Marché St Martin) just around the corner. We spent half and hour and €20 chatting to Eric, the fresh fruit guy. He knows that we are South African students because that's all we can say in French. He gave us a quick lesson on the French names for fruit, laughed when we finally explains we wanted an eggplant (AUBERGINE! Ohhhhhh!) and even gave us a free pineapple (ananas). I also taught him to say "naartjie" instead of clementine :)

    What a great guy. What a great place! He made us promise we'd go back tomorrow. Maybe there'll be more free stuff!!

    Much love to everyone. Life is beautiful! There are some more photos of us around Paris.

    I'm a twentysomething student in Jozi, SA. I drink tea & eat only sickeningly yummy things. My special skills include solving a Rubik's Cube & flipping pancakes. Most of all, I love to write, and to love, and to live.
