On the morning of June 26, 1971, a man named Philippe Petit secretly installed a wire between the two towers of Notre Dame de Paris, then he walked on it and started to do the thing he loved most, in one of the best locations in the city. Love it.

MY DREAM APARTMENT:
◼︎ One of the perfect editing studio for me will be mr.Eiffel apartment on the very top of the Eiffel Tower. 1710 stairs above the city, an amazing view, a cozy tiny metal place and total isolation above the clouds of Paris. Love it.

FEEDING OFF THE RIVER:
◼︎ In the 1940 Paris was under German occupation the French resitance cut all the lift’s cables forcing the tower to close to the public for six years. When Hitler visited the city stairs were the only option but he decided to not walk up, what a lazy bastard.

WALK THE STAIRS:
Sacré-Cœur, located in the 18th arrondissement, was built atop the hill of Montmartre at an altitude of 130 meters above sea level. The dome and the bell tower are both 83m high, making it the second highest point in Paris, but the view over the city from this place is incomparable.

BUILDING THE CATHEDRAL :
In 1163 the first cornerstone was laid down and construction begins.

BEACHES ALONG THE RIVER:
Since the summer of 2002 the office of the mayor of Paris creates temporary artificial beaches along the river Seine. Now every summer tons of sand, beach chairs, floating swimming pool, palm trees, food stands & more, are brought to the pedestrians banks transforming them into city beaches called Paris Plages.

DIFFERENT PROSPECTIVES:
During World War II the mosque of Paris helped the Jews escape from the Nazis by giving them Muslim ID's. Nowadays people see them as terrorist and sometimes awful words flys in the air when a Muslim walks by. I love you Paris but don't be stupid, don't be ignorant and remember that you can't tar everyone with the same brush.
