I miss Seattle, love it there. Hope to see Paris someday. I'd post pics of miserable little Cedar Rapids, but I got 4 foot snow drifts. I can't even get out of my driveway.
C'mon, I know chicago looks lovely for xmas, I wanna see everyone's christmas trees.
I'm stuck in a small apartment for christmas, I need some warmth :D
Nice pictures. I really prefer Paris in the winter. I was living in central Paris this past spring/summer, and as nice as it was, I still prefer winter.
They still call it the square though for some unknown reason they made it into a traffic circle several years ago. About twice a year they have to write an article in the paper on how to navigate a traffic circle
I'm curious as to how you ended up in Paris? I'd love to live in a foreign country. Are you an Australian who is just staying in Paris for a while? Or did you permanently move there? And was getting a visa to stay a while easy?

I'm an Australian living semi-permanently in Paris.
I say 'semi' permanently, as there are a few strange nuances to France.
Getting a 'carte de sejour' [Essentially, a work / living card] is routine if you're studying or employed in France, but France does not recognise, or easily recognise the 'self-employed' situation, and thus getting residancy based off that becomes difficult.
It took me a few months to get a visa, like most long stay visas, then I packed a suitcase and arrived. Depending on where you are and how old you are, getting a 12 month with work visa can be a 5 day affair or a 6 month affair.
Alternatively, if you travel often, or are willing to travel to a non-schengen country every 3 months, you can simply renew your tourist visa and not have any concerns or worries.
