Notice anything?If you know me well enough, you probably find me bizarre already; but among other things, I have a real phobia of descending escalators ONLY (not the ascending ones). This phobia traces back to my childhood naughty days, but I won't bore you with the same ol' story. What is really interesting here is that in Bordeaux, the escalators have no teeth! They are just a nice fat round belt, and can you believe I even rode it a few times with both hands in the air? See, I know I have come to the right place already. (Don't tell me that most of the escalators in Europe are like this; in that case, I have come to the right continent).
Not only there are alterations in my diet and habits, I have also taken on another persona---Amelie Poulain, from the movie Le Fabuleux Destin d' Amelie Poulain.
I will present to you random mysteries that I've found in and around Bordeaux. Such as----rose toilet paper
Yes, it makes you very manly to wipe your butt with these babies. I heard it also comes in yellow, blue, but almost never white? I would like to see some black or brown toilet paper so that certain fecal matters can show up in low contrast with the background canvas. In the next blog, I will talk about food, so you have my permission to vomit now.
Some imagery only exist in Halloween in the States can be found on common street corners here in France.
"I am letting myself in~~coming in~~~creepy voice"Doesn't it look like the hand appeared from no where and is chopped from the wrist, but strangely, it matches the decor of the door?
Maybe we have seen enough. Lastly, I will leave you with some pleasant impressions of the city so that you are not too scared to come back to my blog.
Until next time... brought to you by Amelie Dana.

hey i just saw your blog the other day and i really enjoyed reading it. i have always been intrigued by people who are a little bit different than others and who are not afraid of whom they are. you look like you are one of them.
whatever, next year i am going to holland on an exchange programme and, you see, your blog is like a guide to me now. during my stay, i probablly will have (in english of course) to keep track of whatever i'll be doing.
well, my current blog is in turkish as you may have noticed if you have visited it but i am planning on posting some pics i have taken.
you look like you are enjoying your trip in europe and keep enjoying it.

Hi!!!!
I'm Txopo, or Bruno, I don't know if you remember me, I'm Maria's and Charlène's friend, we had a drink together on the "place de la victoire.", I told you about my cinema blog etc.
I don't know why you think the pink toilet papier is such a strange thing, every body knows that french people are quite afeminated so they feel comfortable with those colors on their ass, but, and that's a message from Maria, the white one also exist in this country.
Well, I hope I haven't make too many mistakes writting you in english and I hope see you again soon.
BISOUS!!!
