Last night I rounded a corner, and looked up.

这让我意识到,有时候很容易陷入太多事情。

And what’s really important is to give myself a moment to stop everything—take a look (and a photo)—and remind myself what a beautiful city I get to live in.

尽管我认为幸福不一定取决于您的住所,但我会说,这绝对与之有关。

    这很有趣,不是吗,您一次只能在城镇周围逛几个月,然后突然间您转弯并爆炸了 - 您意识到自己在世界上最美丽的城市之一。对我来说,它是在晚上乘坐的出租车,经常做到这一点……!

      令人惊叹的照片,大卫!

      The same thing used to happen to me in Milan, especially at Christmas when there are Christmas lights above the cobblestone streets, and everywhere you look it’s beautiful. Now I live in the country, and it’s the sunrise and sunsets over the fields and streams that makes me stop and take it all in.

        Yes, this is the type of post that people who are not expats will not understand (as it seems obvious with your “perfect” life) and people who are expats will remember that sometimes we, too, have to play the tourist to rejuvenate a bit of the wonder others find in our current country. I sometimes dread being put as a guide for others but it’s also in those rare moments that guests remind us there are some simple pleasures!

        PS:您什么时候来意大利,以便我可以向您展示?

          Very nice, David. It can be quite an amazing moment when one just slows down for a bit and look, REALLY look, at what’s around. Life can be too much like an American bus trip around Europe when you got to see it all in one week.

          享受!

            当我一直热切地等待您在Caramel Part Deux上的帖子时,我在其他地方寻求慰藉,并发现您对您对咸焦糖的感情可能会让您感兴趣。我不知道越南炖的菜“ kho”是基于用超咸的鱼酱Nuoc Mam制成的焦糖。

            我一定会在家里尝试一下。精彩文章,提供虾/牛肉/鸡肉版本的食谱:kho

              Beautiful. When I was there a few months ago, it was dressed up for Rugby with a green base and yellow top.

                实际上,萨拉(Sara),我认为很多人都可以与之联系,而不管我们是否是外籍人士。我们中的许多人都住在人们来自其他各国来到了我们访问他们时的奇观和兴奋!我进行了多少次湾区(或过去几年的纽约市或DC游览),但只有客人在镇上?然后,我回去跑来跑去。

                当我在南加州的南加州时,我秘密希望我能离开OC,我沿着太平洋海岸高速公路行驶,看着海洋坠毁在悬崖上的明信片。我意识到这是一月和65度,虽然我可能会更快乐地住在其他地方,但我也可以享受这一点。

                一次又一次地抬起头来欣赏美丽将为我们带来一些好处!感谢您的提醒和华丽的照片,David。

                  我对您的网站相对较新。我喜欢它。我对在厨房里尝试新事物感到非常兴奋!

                  Your picture moved me. Hubs & I are planning a trip to Paris for our 10th. Until then, I refuse to take our local splendor for granted. When I come over a hill and see the Rockies in all their glory.

                    • Drbehavior

                    我真的很高兴读到,您终于将这么急需的傍晚去做“做”这个小镇。我确定您的项目现在会好多了。顺便说一句,您是否把所有东西都放回了大厅的壁橱里?

                      • 大卫

                      利亚: When I was in San Diego a couple of years ago, as I left my hotel and went for a walk on the warm beach, overlooking the expansive Pacific, I remember thinking to myself; “Why would anyone want to live anywhere else?”

                      有趣的是,我们如何忘记周围事物的美丽。这些年来,我仍然看着我购买的每个法式长棍面包,并欣赏所有这些角落,硬皮漩涡和粉红色碎屑的美丽。

                      The Eiffel Tower is certainly beautiful, especially at night. Still, I wouldn’t mind a good bowl of chip and guac every now and then…and a bit of sunshine!

                      :))

                        嗯,我希望有一天能转弯,也看到了!同时,我想我很幸运地生活在世界上最美丽,最不受欢迎的地方之一。您曾经访问过新西兰大卫吗?

                          • debinsf

                          我们在这里只生活了10年,所以每次看到GG桥从树木繁华的Presidio到Marin越过水面的Marin Headlands时,我仍然会这样做。雾还是没有雾。

                          能够在自己的地方度过一个分钟的假期真是太好了。

                          美丽,谢谢!

                            巴黎很可爱。如果我有更多的钱,我肯定会住在那儿而不是在托雷莫利诺群岛:P

                              大卫,我喜欢你在这里表达的情绪!作为巴黎的几次访客,当我转弯并看到景观中的塔时,我仍然有点跳跃。上次我在那儿,在我在学校附近的拉丁区行走时,这又发生在我身边,看着远处,我看到了塔,喘着粗气!我的巴黎人朋友喜欢我的回应 - 并理解!感谢您总是让我们思考 - 好吧,以及讽刺,有趣和才华横溢!

                                • Maryann

                                您“转弯”。好吧,对你有好处,孩子;)
                                听起来您准备前进了。这是一个姐妹般的拥抱!

                                  有时,我必须提醒自己再次真正看待事物,并意识到自己在法国生活有多么幸运。我必须对丈夫的法国口音做同样的事情。它是如此迷人,但我并不总是喜欢。

                                    叹!这种观点永远不会阻止我的呼吸。每当我看到埃菲尔铁塔时,我都会觉得自己可以呼气,就像一切都会好起来的。而且它永远不会使我的心so翔,在我的脸上露出微笑:)

                                      令人敬畏的图片……你是一个幸运的人!

                                        • La Fourchette

                                        大卫,喜欢这个镜头!我 *来自 *(不确定如何将这些HTML标签用于这种事情)圣地亚哥(当时是本地人)。I’ve the best of both worlds at this point: I love my life in the south of France and find beautiful and charming details daily in this existence…and when I go back to San Diego for a visit it holds a new beauty for me. (Yes, it’s the ocean and the mexican food that I miss the most…well…okay, and my friends…well, and my sister…okay…I’ll stop.)
                                        我将在10天内在巴黎度过一些“游戏日期”。您的射门令人鼓舞。

                                          我们从去年的7日搬到了您拍摄的敬畏启发性纪念碑下方(顺便说一句)。我们现在生活在16日,仍然可以欣赏到它的美景。
                                          我最喜欢与我们的客人一起做的事情是将它们带到露台上,并在照亮时看着他们的脸。帮助我欣赏我们在这个美丽(有时令人沮丧的)城市中拥有的一切。

                                          大卫 - 随时欢迎您来我去GUAC和筹码的地方。我发誓我把它当作巴黎最好的。我还从我们那里带来了一瓶很棒的龙舌兰酒,所以我只是想借口做玛格丽塔酒,你会帮我吗?

                                            At night and all lit up is the only way to see the Tour Eiffel. In daylight it’s brown. What sort of a colour for an international icon is brown for goodness sake! On the other hand…chocolate…hmm…brown can’t be that depressing after all ;-)

                                              • 巴黎的西雅图石

                                              很棒的照片!我每天都在上班的路上看到Triomphe的弧线和埃菲尔铁塔的顶部。我试图很好地看一下我确实生活在一个了不起的城市中。

                                                I envy the heck out of you. I had the chance to stay in France and gave it up for stupid love…
                                                哦,好吧,有一天我会回来的。

                                                  那是一个美丽的景象!我在纽约市工作,很多时候都在回家的路上照亮了帝国大厦 - 它确实屏住了您的呼吸(当天的压力)!

                                                    • Mimi

                                                    从蒙特塞(Rue de Montestesuy)的Rapp Rapp的拐角处有一个非常相似的观点,但我认为不是这样。无论如何,这是我们去年两个星期的观点。是的,当您看到“这是巴黎”时,您对自己说。

                                                      幸运的狗!!!我想念巴黎!感谢您的有趣博客,喜欢阅读您的博客!

                                                        I love this post. I have the same problem here in Sydney. My view at work is the harbor bridge and the opera house, and so often don’t even notice the stunning view just there!

                                                          • Betty C.

                                                          Enjoy, enjoy…I live in the deep French countryside and much as I love it, I regret not going to Paris more often. I went up for a work-related meeting the other day and it took my breath away. I hadn’t been to Paris for six years; I thought I could hardly walk when I got out of the RER station “L’Etoile.” My colleague, who grew up near Paris, just carried on as if nothing special were going on…
