for all the reasons and more (except for business) been maybe ten times. Love the shopping for goods unavailable here, love Detau, Deyrolle, all the outdoor food markets, the flea markets, the fashions, the architecture, the park,the cafes. An American in love with a city as a lover she can't afford often.
