Stopping Time in Japan by the Way of Paris

<p>One of my favorite neighborhoods in Paris was Montmartre. Hilly, with the gorgeous Sacre Coeur glowing like a marble heart atop the hill and side streets crawling with boutique shops and restaurants, it was a neighborhood with a world-famous view. It was also the perfect setting to get lost in for a while immediately after surgery. My parents helped me move into a minuscule one-bedroom apartment with creaky floors from a friend of a friend. My mom shook her head while stirring rice porridge in the tiny Parisian kitchen with its ancient red-and-white-tiled floor. The living room was decorated with cozy artbooks and large wax candles bunched together in the fireplace. Plus, the bed was comfortable. I loved it.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@cancerland/stopping-time-in-japan-by-the-way-of-paris-bfa1d93f76a4"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
