I spent many hours walking the avenues and also the little
streets of Paris. It was a sunny day, a beautiful day after so many awful days
of grey. Paris is always a delight particularly when the weather is fine. It is
a city that was conceived by people with great sense of ambition and personal
glory and that transmitted that to the many palaces, monuments, squares and
gardens that make the place an architectural wonder.
Just a first impression after a very long day: one sees
plenty of young tourists from Japan in Paris. As I walked the avenues I was
asking myself if visiting Paris is a rite of passage for the young men and
ladies of today’s Japan. And then I thought, maybe this will make the youth of
that far away land a bit more romantic and more interested in love…I am told
they desperately need to boost the romanticism in the Japanese society…
