Today I am returning to visit the place I have called home for so many years. The place where I learned the many lessons that life needed to teach me. The place where I became much of who I am. New York City. A city possessing great energy, movement and life. How will it feel to land on American soil, the soil of freedom and expression and possibility? After 7 months of being planted in Paris. I am looking forward to the feeling, whatever it may be. Elation, nostalgia, perhaps even displacement. Culture shock? Most of all I am looking forward to the cherished faces I call my friends. And the food! Somehow I don’t think I will be dining at the many French bistros I used to frequent. And I may spend my entire days looking up, not at the sky but at the grandness of it all. All the while smiling with the eyes of a tourist and the soul of a local.
Wonderful, Kasia! Welcome home 🙂 xx
Have fun and enjoy!
I’m so happy we’ll see each other tomorrow!

Kash my dear! I love your latest confessions, have been moved by your unique and deep thinking. It was great to see you back in the city, hanging out (in spite of the volcano chaos). I hope to see you in Paris sometime this year! Keep feeling, and writing! 🙂
Thanks Em. It was wonderful to share a few thoughtful moments with you in NYC, my fellow feeler. You are always welcome in Paris!
