Temple Neuf

Or New Temple, a protestant church in the city center. New, because the church is only 154 years old... There was a dominican convent here before, since 1254. More info here.

Spring, so soon?

Well, this an old photo, but spring is definitely around the corner: early April temperatures, flowers everywhere, trees getting greener by the day... A very unusual February.

I don't like what they call "coffee"

 

One of several American "coffee" places in town. Much better coffee pretty much everywhere. In France, we know about real coffee.

No black and white today!

I often post in b&w, but I decided on a more colorful photo today, the grand entrance of the Musée Grévin, the Paris wax museum. More black and white later, promised!

J'existe

Or I exist. I've seen this sticker in many countries, wondering what it means, what's the message. Here is the explanation. I took this particular photo in Skopje, North Macedonia, but it could have been almost everywhere, where I existed for a while.

A favorite!

Oh I love my momos!!! Well ok, the ones at the Dillihaat market in New Delhi are better, but I'm happy with this small restaurant. Strasbourg a very multicultural food scene, Asian, Ethiopian, french Canadian, Korean, African, middle eastern... And many more.

Art in Florence

I went to Firenze, Florence, a while ago. Lots of art there, mostly very old. I was happy to find this, a witness of striving art scene.

More b&w right... here.

And more weekend reflections... HERE

Last month

We had a little snow a month ago, just enough to make Strasbourg look beautiful.

Winter is coming

Yep, winter is coming this week, after a spring-like December, first flowers and all. The weather people call it a Paris-Moscow, a polar front coming straight from the North Pole. Well , it will not be as cold as in Sweden, down to minus 43 degrees C up there, but I'm getting my warmest clothes out!
