Bienvenue!

Welcome to the inaugural day of this blog.

For you, Dear Reader, I'll aim to present a (completely biased and probably quite wayward) guide to all the things I love about Paris. I’ll harp on about food, wine, art, music and everything else that feels appropriate, and I’ll provide photos and later even maps to help you tame this often-unapproachable yet intoxicating city (and I'm not just talking about all the French wine I'll be drinking as I write this thing).

For those of you who are not familiar with Zoomorama, the application that I have used for the display of the images in this blog, have a look at their website.

It's simple - if you scroll over the image you will see arrow icons that allow you to "zoom" into it the photo for more detail (and of course, back out again); if you click the little box in the top right-hand corner it blows it up to full-screen size, and then you can get in really close (much to the chagrin of the poor individuals who find themselves in my photos, I'm sure)...

I'll try to take photos that use this application to it's fullest potential, but I make no promises: I am not a professional photographer, only an over-excited dilettante with too much time on her hands.
