My findings this week

Snapshot in the Metro


This is one of my finding of the week, and I found it in the Metro!

Oû vais-je
et pourquoi ?
Je me rue
dans la centième rue,
bruissant essaim d'humanité.

Vladimir Maiakovski, Traduction de Christian David

Later on, as I get lost over and over and again walking, I sometimes find something wonderful that I have never seen or visited before, and I always ask myself: how could that be?


This time it was Old Arena built at the end of the first century. They were excavated in 1870 only during the grand Haussmann's building spree. Not far from Metro Monge. Note that no one is visiting, it is only a park. So peaceful though.
