I had a particularly Parisian evening tonight. I went to a French/English language exchange event in a bar (which I had been told about by a new Australian friend whom I met yesterday at an Anzac Day event), and as I was leaving, I got chatting to a lovely couple who weren't even at the event, they were just there having drinks - he's French/Moroccan and she's Colombian, but they're both from Los Angeles and now live in Paris. So they invited me to join them for a drink and we ended up chatting for a couple of hours.
So, to recap - I found out about this event through an Australian, then met a French/Moroccan-American and a Colombian-American. You might not think that's very Parisian, but trust me, when you're living as an expat in Paris, this is exactly how you end up meeting people...
Great to meet you at the Anzac Day meet up on Monday K. I'll have to check Frangish out sometime. Great blog :)
