HELLO... I MOVED.
You might recall, I've posted a great many times about how absolutely horrific my previous living situation turned out—and my landlord finally, fiiiinally, released me from my lease. I moved into a new place about a week and a half ago and I love it.
I'm settling in (working on the bedroom today!) and I plan to start firing up the writing gears again this coming week, which means more fic!
If you have any requests, feel free to drop them here or in my inbox (and dw if you've made requests before, I'll check on older messages in my inbox when writing this week).
#My new home is small and cozy and located literally in the most ideal spot possible#I'm so grateful#lmk if u wanna see pics... lmao#Progress is slow but I love ittttt!!!

i am you // you are me - yoonkook - 5k
some weird soulmate shit happens.
read: yoongi keeps running into this cute cashier boy. and they keep matching?
(music to listen: 1. belief - mabinc 2. i am you you are me - zico 3. soulmate - zico ft. iu)
man, seoul has a completely different atmosphere and air to it - way different than in daegu. literally, the air smells different here and yoongi thinks it’s not necessarily a bad thing, but the fact that he notices this small and random detail just makes him a little more depressed because he longs for his cozy home back in good ole d-town.
he’s lounging in a flimsy lawn chair on his apartment balcony and distastefully sniffs the stuffy seoul air again. his mind wanders back to old, familiar places - the bustling family restaurant, his mom’s soothing voice, his father beckoning him to taste the family’s famous galbi-jjim , his brother’s annoying method of showing affection via noogies when yoongi grudgingly accepts his chores for the day.
the fond memories in his head are juxtaposed with the outside sound and sight of the bustling nighttime atmosphere. everything in seoul is so,fast-paced , even the night life, which he can clearly see from his vantage point. he hasn’t really gotten used to it all, more like, barely tolerating it. he’s kinda stubbornly refusing to settle completely which serves to make him more homesick and then he’s stuck in this cycle of stubbornness and nostalgia and longing and stubbornness and nostalgia and longing.
yoongi breaks his nostalgic reverie when he stands up, the chair loudly scraping against the floor. if he’s going to drown himself in memories and be a sad, depressed sack he might as well do it right - with some alcohol.
he checks the fridge to grab a can of beer but fuck - he’s out. all that’s left is a pack of sliced turkey meat, a sad pile of lettuce, a lone half-empty gallon of milk, and a fully empty carton that used to hold eggs.
damn, his produce is mocking him.
just a few hours ago when he opened his fridge he saw the same turkey, lettuce, milk, and egg carton and the word minimalism smugly appeared in his head. yoongi prides himself on not being wasteful; he’s able to use each and every one of his ingredients until they’re completely gone, thank you very much.
but seeing as he’s in a less than ideal mood to be holed up at home and he has a dire need of alcohol, yoongi tears his eyes away from his sad produce, grabs his wallet and keys, and wrestles himself into a big sweater to combat the chilly night-time seoul air. he grumbles as he steps out of his apartment complex. daegu was always on the warmer side. who knows, maybe the seoul air will help clear his head. maybe.
yoongi finds himself deep in thought as he’s walking, a result of his melancholy mood and the atmosphere of night probably. as a result, he doesn’t realize that he’s actually not walking in the direction of the nearest 7-eleven. when he hears the distant sound of a car angrily honking five times - goddamn, chill - he’s shaken out of his thoughts and glances at his surroundings.
nice. he’s in a random alley.
well, way to go min yoongi. this night is just continually fucking with him and becoming more and more disappointing. he takes a minute to inwardly curse at himself for his obliviousness before he has the smart idea of grabbing his phone out his pocket. he googles the nearest convenience store. the top result is ten yards from his current location.
he rounds a corner and walks a few paces before he spots it. only a single neon sign that reads “ level” adorns its storefront and he assumes that’s what the store is called. yoongi power walks toward it, through the front door, and straight towards where he thinks they should be keeping the alcohol because dammit, he is a man on a mission.
somewhere on the other end of the store, which isn’t actually far from where yoongi stands now, the clock goes from 11:59 to 12:00.
yoongi surveys his surroundings. he’s bombarded with neon colors from every angle, which makes the store feel bigger than it actually is. from the outside, it looked cramped and dull and drab and not colorful. due to this very misleading outward appearance, yoongi immediately thinks that this is exactly the type of store that is empty seventy-five percent of the time and will most likely be out of business within the next month.
okay, it is midnight, but yoongi can tell when a store is being frequented or not, in this case: not. it’s the only possible explanation as to why his sneakers squeak so unusually loud on the unusually pristine tiles.
he strides towards the refrigerated area and for some reason, he feels a strange sense of familiarity, like he’s been here before; a type of vague awareness that comes from something like a dream.
actually, yoongi’s seen stores like this before. namjoon has a very cultured and particular sense of tumblr aesthetic and this store fits the bill perfectly.
yoongi chalks that niggling feeling as a latent reaction to all the posts he witnessed namjoon reblogging to his tumblr, as they sat on the couch on their respective phones. he’s suddenly bitter again because now, with his current situation and location , he can’t even call namjoon out for trying to be hipster because he’s too far away to even see namjoon or his stupid hipster-aesthetic-whatever tumblr in person.
yoongi spots the alcohol, finally, and grabs two - he hesitates and turns around - three bottles of the brand he likes and walks to the checkout station.
well fuck, he was hoping for a some sort of self-checkout machine - this is seoul, the largest metropolis of korea after all - but he should have known not to expect anything when he set foot inside.
god, he’s too impatient and drained and sad to deal with another human being but sucks up his feelings once again as he steps up to the counter. no one is actually there and yoongi spots a bell and rings it twice. a couple more times, more insistently, for good measure. suddenly he feels his phone buzz in his pocket. he checks and sees it’s from namjoon.
at that moment someone stumbles out of the ‘employees only’ door and utters a quick apology for making yoongi wait.
yoongi quickly glances up from the phone and sees that the cashier is a young twenty-something boy. all he sees is a mop of soft brown hair and just under it, a pair of soft brown eyes which he unwittingly makes eye contact with. but suddenly it is broken - the cashier beginning to ring up yoongi’s items, and yoongi looking back at his phone.

“excuse me?”
right, yoongi still needs to pay for his things. he jams his phone into his back pocket and fishes for his wallet. he awkwardly fumbles for some bills, “ah, sorry - here you go,” and all but flings them on the counter in his haste to get back to his conversation with namjoon and to go back home and avoid strangers altogether, let alone semi-attractive strangers.
it looks like his original plan of drowning in sorrow will have to be put on hold. nonetheless, he welcomes the new interruption in the form of his dear friend.
right as yoongi’s about to exit the store, the cashier calls out to him.
“um,” he pauses cutely, “nice sweater.”
yoongi looks down. it’s an old number, one that jimin got for him as a christmas present. it’s kinda not his style because it’s colorblocked - well, color in general - but it’s the first thing he found as he left his apartment and it’s oversized and it’s a gift. from jimin. so.
he looks up again and sees the exact same sweater on the cashier.
o-kay. what a coincidence.
at this moment, yoongi gets a really good look at the twenty-something cashier boy. well, as good of a look as he can seeing as half of cashier boy’s body is obscured by the counter.
the cashier is clearly taller and bigger than yoongi but the sweater still looks oversized and his fingers just barely peek out from under the sleeves. yoongi gets a good look at cashier boy’s doe eyes and button nose and his whole look just screams soft. fuck semi-attractive. this guy is possibly the most attractive guy yoongi has ever seen. the most attractive person in seoul, by far. at least to yoongi’s standards. and this is only the visible half - yoongi gulps - doesn’t even want to think about anything lower than that.
he eloquently chokes out a word. “cool.”
real smooth, min yoongi.
well, time’s up. yoongi’s just about done with social interaction and he’s itching to get home and he wants to maybe forget this whole thing because goddamn, he’s awkward and the cashier is cute.
cashier boy blinks and fuck, yoongi can see his eyelashes from here. and then, cashier boy smiles , all twinkling eyes and soft lips, “have a nice evening, sir.”
yoongi bolts out of the door.
/
jungkook just barely managed to keep his fluster in check. he tried to not to stare at the strange man’s silvery hair, or at his sharp profile, or at his attractive piercings, three silver hoops on each ear - fuck, since when did jungkook find piercings on anyone but himself attractive?
but the thing that caught jungkook’s attention the most was the sweater. not the fact that it was so large that it swallowed the man’s entire frame but still made the entire fit scream effortless and attractive. not the fact that the color palette complimented his silver hair.
they had the same fucking sweater?
taehyung, who is privy to jungkook’s unique tastes, had carefully chosen the very sweater as a christmas present. he claims that he happened upon it in some random thrift store and thought it screamed jungkook and bought it even though christmas wasn't for another three months.
jungkook thinks otherwise. the sweater is just. so nice. taehyung probably bought it at a non thrift shop last minute, which would explain why jungkook ran into another person also wearing it. yeah. that would explain the coincidence. it’s definitely embarrassing, but people are bound to be caught wearing the same clothes, seeing as they’re mass produced for that reason - to be worn.
as he starts cleaning up, jungkook silently thanks himself for choosing the night shifts at level supermarket because 1. he likes staying up late 2. he gets to meet interesting and colorful characters like that one sweet ahjumma with cotton candy pink hair that comes in every day at 9:36 pm sharp to buy a bag of lollipops and nothing else, for example.
jungkook’s checking the inventory for the third time - it always helps to be extra thorough - but his mind begins to wander back to that silver-haired man.
a small - admittedly very small - part of him wants to never see that man again because he was a stranger, a very attractive stranger, and jungkook acted like such a freaking loser. god he’s blushing again. but the bigger- much bigger - part of him wants to see the silver-haired man again. like, he was fucking attractive. but also something about a frustrated looking man coming in a store at midnight that hardly anyone ever comes to just.
he’s like a novel jungkook is itching to read.
jungkook just wants to know.
jungkook wants to know. jungkook wants to know how this man likes his eggs cooked. does he have any tattoos? is he a morning person? okay, maybe not that because he’s up and about at midnight.
what is his opinion on soulmates? does he listen to dean? what does his smile look like? does he like smiling? is he a smiley person? is he doing okay?
because most of all, jungkook wants to tell him that things are going to be okay. something about this man seemed - lonely and jungkook has an urge to reach out and be like, me too, i understand, i hope you’re okay.
but. jungkook shakes his head to clear the thoughts. he’s doing it again. he’s getting ahead of himself and he’s doing that fantasizing thing he tends to do. at his core, jungkook is a very kind and empathetic person and the times he does feel good about himself he wants to meet people and reach out. back at his small hometown, the people were very friendly and accepting, and this made it easy for him. and with the town being so small, eventually jungkook knew everyone and everyone knew him and he was very comfortable with this.
however, this is seoul. and after making the difficult decision to leave the comfort of his town to pursue his dreams in the form of a dance degree, jungkook has learned that not everyone feels the same way in this city.
‘city people’ he thinks with distaste - but mostly - disappointment.
jungkook closes and locks the store’s front door, as well as his hopes for seeing the silver-haired man again. he’s no stranger to how this kind of thing works. nothing good happens when he gives into wishful thinking.
/
as soon as yoongi is back in the safety of his apartment he calls namjoon. “joon, what’s up?”
“okay, so. like. yeah. i don’t know, hyung!” yoongi goes to open a bottle of beer, his silence prompting namjoon to continue.
“i just woke up and now i have a new sun tattoo on my wrist! honestly, it looks pretty good paired with the one i already have of the crescent moon.”
“well, as long as you’re happy with it joon, i guess it’s cool.” yoongi takes a long gulp, “could’ve been worse. could’ve woken up with the word ‘penis’ tattooed in large letters instead.”
namjoon cackles heartily and yoongi smiles at the sound. “yeah, you’re right hyung.” he laughs again, “this is like some weird soulmate shit.
yoongi elegantly swallows some beer down the wrong airway. “yeah,” he coughs a few times to clear his throat, “come to think of it-,”
on second thought, maybe yoongi will keep cashier boy to himself. what happened earlier that night still felt - unreal. yoongi feels like he’ll break the enigmatic anonymity of the attractive cashier boy if he says anything.
“hyung?”
“no, nothing. nevermind,” yoongi changes the subject, “how’s that new track going?” and namjoon enthusiastically explains his progress.
/
the next day, yoongi finds himself slouched at his desk, pen tossed somewhere to the side. he’s looking down at what he can only call organized chaos atop his desk. this is usually how his song production process starts anyway. he scans some of the lyrics he just scribbled all over and he sees stuff like ‘ enigma and mystique ’ and ‘ eyes that hold stars ’ and ‘ deer in headlights... i’m struck by your beauty mystery loveliness- ’
uh-huh. yup. okay. yoongi stands up and gathers all those loose leaf papers in a pile and goes to deposit them in the wastebin.
he pauses and throws them in a random drawer in his nightstand.
he needs to get out. he grabs his leather jacket draped across the back of his desk chair and power walks his way out of his apartment.
yoongi finds himself wandering the city again and wait. it’s that store again. what the fuck? did he just subconsciously make his way to back to the store and it’s attractive cashier-
shit. yoongi sees said cashier boy through the front windows, presumably stocking a shelf. he gets up and starts walking back to the counter, but as he’s doing that his body faces the front doors, which probably puts yoongi in his plain sight.
yoongi quickly backpedals, hoping he hasn’t been spotted.
he stands in place for a beat.
he refuses to acknowledge how hard his heart is hammering.
after much internal debate, yoongi decides that fuck it. he’s already here and he sees a huge jar of cheese puffs from where he’s standing and he might as well get that. because. he needs. inspiration.
he walks in, trying his best to put confidence in his steps and not looking at the cashier - who is now sitting at the counter with earphones and bobbing his head to a beat and is he humming?
yoongi walks down the chip aisle, deciding that he needs to have different flavors on hand when he gets tired of the cheese puffs.
over the top of the aisle, yoongi can see cashier boy stretching and fuck. his shoulders look good in that leather jacket too.
yoongi reaches the end of the aisle and is about to stroll into the next one, but almost trips on his shoelaces of his black converse. he kneels down and glances at the counter, seeing that the cashier is now standing. they make awkward eye contact and yoongi quickly goes back to tying his own shoelace, not before seeing a flash of black converses disappearing behind the counter.
when yoongi goes to pay for his items, cashier boy has taken off the leather jacket, leaving him in a simple white tee with a simple supreme logo. and now his incredibly toned biceps are out on display. wow. is it getting hot in here? yoongi sees the veins in cashier boy’s arms when they flex to hold the large container of cheese puffs. yoongi gulps.
it’s too hot - yoongi strips off his own leather jacket and slings it over an arm. eyes looking anywhere but the cashier, he taps his foot and waits for cashier boy to state the price and yoongi can pay and then he can leave.
except. cashier boy hasn’t said anything for a little while. yoongi chances a quick glance upwards. cashier boy is staring at - yoongi’s chest? fuck, did he wear his kumamon jammies out or something?
but like, if this boy has something against kumamon, yoongi has a serious bone to pick with him.
yoongi glances down at his own shirt. then back up at cashier boy. then back at his own shirt.
weird. yoongi’s wearing a supreme shirt. cashier boy’s wearing one too. cashier boy squints, like he’s suspicious of yoongi or something.
yoongi clears his throat, “uh - can i pay for my things?”
this seems to shake the cashier out of whatever stupor he’s in, “ah - sorry.”
yoongi pays for his things and goes to grab the bag the cashier is holding out for him to take. yoongi overshoots a little; okay, maybe he’s a little flustered and accidently knocks his hand against the cashier’s.
there’s a little clink as yoongi’s ring bumps against cashier boy’s.
okay. fuck. they’re wearing matching rings too?
they both face each other with similar looks of shock and confusion. before either of them have a chance to say anything, yoongi books it out of there real quick.
/
something weird is going on and jungkook doesn’t know what to do.
he’s just minding his own business, listening to offonoff’s new album while doing his math homework at the register to keep an eye on the store in case anyone does come in. it’s midnight but still.
then, jungkook sees movement in the corner of his eyes and realizes that someone has come in without him noticing.
it’s the silver-haired man again. and shit, he looks really good. he’s standing in front of the snack shelf, with his hands in the back pockets of his jeans and he’s wearing this large leather jacket.
jungkook does not salivate.
but wait. jungkook looks down at himself. how is he also wearing a leather jacket?
it must be another fluke. jungkook hurriedly stands up and takes his jacket off, pacing around for a bit.
he looks over at the silver-haired man again and sees him tying his right shoelace.
jungkook looks down at his shoes.
his left shoelace is untied.
a mixture of mild horror and panic starts thrumming through his body, but he refuses to tie his shoelaces and resumes his nervous pacing.
he turns around and jumps slightly. the silver haired man is right in front of him, fidgeting with his hair.
jungkook goes to ring up his purchases, which are all comprised of various family size chip bags. he goes to ring up the last item, a jumbo container of cheese puffs, and pauses. the silver-haired man has taken off his leather jacket and. why. is he wearing a supreme shirt. like jungkook.
jungkook stares dumbfoundedly at that stupid supreme logo and the man’s prominent collarbones before he clears his throat and asks for jungkook to ring up the total.
right. jungkook hurriedly bags everything and thrusts them towards the man, hoping he’ll leave quickly.
the man accidentally knocks his hand against jungkook’s and this time jungkook does not hide his shock.
you've got to be fucking kidding. they have matching rings. it's like they're a couple or something.
what. is happening.
/
the next night after his shift at the local coffee shop, yoongi actively seeks out level convenience store, as well as its resident attractive cashier. he’s wearing this ostentatious, bright yellow, furry thing. it’s so. loud. and lowkey ugly. hence the reason why he’s out at night.
however, yoongi swears his sweater is bright enough that he’s probably glowing in the dark.
but, yoongi also needs to prove a point. whatever cosmic fuckery is going on, whatever deity is fucking with him, yoongi just wants to prove to himself that this is all bullshit. running into a cute stranger repeatedly is enough, and yoongi doesn’t need any other unexplainable shit happening.
/
jungkook is tapping his foot, a habit of his that surfaces only when he’s nervous or anxious. jungkook is definitely focusing on math homework and definitely not looking out for a certain silver-haired stranger.
he rubs his nose with the sleeve of his sweater and almost sneezes. geez. jungkook had asked taehyung to lend him his craziest article of clothing at the moment, seeing as taehyung’s fashion style is overall - crazy. so, taehyung tossed him the first thing he laid eyes on in his closet, and it was this gucci sweater. gucci my ass, jungkook thinks. this sweater is just a very good excuse to cosplay as big bird.
jungkook just wants to figure out what is going on. like, he meets some cute stranger and-
holy shit. he sees said stranger standing outside on the sidewalk.
okay, somebody up there must hate jungkook because - he looks down at himself just to make sure - both of them are once again, matching.
like, how does the stranger still look striking in such an ugly sweater?
jungkook can only stare as the stranger swiftly turns around and bolts down the street.
/
yoongi slams the door of his apartment closed, breathing heavily. he looks through the peephole to make sure no one had followed him. he’s not taking any chances.
that’s it. something is up and yoongi’s solution is to - hole himself up in his apartment.
wait, can he do that? oh yeah, it’s friday. and he doesn’t have any shifts until monday. fantastic. he can devote himself wholeheartedly to his unfinished tracks over the weekend.
yoongi wakes up saturday afternoon, but allows himself the luxury of lounging around in bed for a few more hours. this effectively brings the start of his day well into saturday evening. he fishes around for some spare instant ramen packets, and begins working as soon as he gives himself some salty sustenance.
his weekend goes by like this: immersing himself with writing lyrics and producing elementary beats for a few straight hours and then taking short naps in between. he eats if he remembers. or if namjoon reminds him.
all in all, he does a good job of not thinking about the weird stuff that’s been going on, and especially about the soft-looking cashier boy.
except.
yoongi stumbles out of his bedroom, finally succumbing to his stomach’s urges, as well as namjoon’s rapid texts.
he fumbles around for a cup of ramen - his last one, he’ll have to refill - and goes to find a scissor to cut off the plastic wrap.
his fingers slip and he ends up cutting himself.
he sighs as he looks down at his bleeding finger. he dabs at it lightly to try to clear away the blood, but it just keeps oozing out. he grabs a tissue and presses on the fresh wound, waiting for it to clot, but the blood just keeps coming.
what the heck? he didn’t cut himself that hard.
ah, shit. he doesn’t have any bandaids.
he checks his phone. 2:55 am. is there a store open at this hour-
there might be one.
before yoongi thinks about it too hard, he wraps a clean tissue around his finger and books it out of his apartment. he’s not about to hold a tissue around his finger for the rest of the night to keep it from getting infected.
as he fast-walks to level convenience store, yoongi thinks about cashier boy again for the first time in awhile (a couple days.) maybe whatever matchy-matchy curse or spell or shit is over, since yoongi hadn’t seen or even thought about the boy. wow. an achievement.
cashier boy probably isn’t even there, seeing as it’s so late.
whatever, yoongi just needs to grab some bandaids and then he’s out.
he heads into the store, notices that the register is unattended, and goes to grab a box of bandaids. while he’s at it, he stops by the ramen aisle to refill his stock.
as he makes his way to the register, he sees someone now sitting behind the counter. yoongi stops in his tracks. it’s cashier boy. he looks as stunning as ever. and he’s fiddling with one of his fingers, which happens to be bandaged. he looks up and only then does yoongi continue walking towards him.
none of them say anything as cashier boy rings up his items, but he does raise his eyebrows slightly when he notices the blood-soaked tissue around yoongi’s finger.
after he pays, yoongi doesn’t leave right away. instead, he rips open the box of bandaids and slaps one around his finger.
“how did you hurt yourself?”
holy shit, even cashier boy’s voice is attractive - what the fuck - with a soft, lilting tone to it.
“uh, i cut myself trying to get some ramen.” god he sounds stupid.
“wait, really?” cashier boy’s doe eyes widen - yoongi sees his eyelashes, - “me too! i was doing inventory and had to refill some ramen for the shelves and yeah.” he gesticulates with his injured finger.
yoongi is silent for a moment. they even have matching wounds.
“this shit is real, isn't it?”
cashier boy tilts his head. “oh. you mean the weird clothes thing-”
the lights in the store flicker and then suddenly fade out completely.
yoongi panics for a second as his eyes adjust to the darkness, but that initial shock instantly goes away as soon as he sees cashier boy’s big eyes reflecting the street lights outside.
he finishes cashier boy’s sentence. “...yeah. the weird clothes-matching thing.”
“well, my best explanation is that the universe continually derives pleasure from fucking with me.” cashier boy pauses, “n-not that it's always a negative thing! i mean, this time wasn't so bad!” he rubs the back of his neck sheepishly, “i-you - sorry! i didn't mean to make that sound like an insult to you.”
yoongi chuckles, “hey, it's fine. the universe likes fucking with me too.”
cashier boy shyly ducks his head.
yoongi looks around the store, now shrouded in complete darkness. “should we maybe find the fuse box or something..?”
cashier boy sits down on his stool. “nah, it’s fine. this happens quite often, actually. i don’t even know why you bother coming here when there are plenty of 7-eleven’s,” he sighs, “this store is pretty shitty and rundown.”
“i don’t know. i kinda like the warm, colorful vibe.” yoongi thinks, also, it’s because you’re here.
“well, the longest the power’s been out was like, thirty minutes.” cashier boy unlocks his phone and begins scrolling through, “um - you’re free to leave..? i have everything under control.”
yoongi makes no move to leave and hops up to sit atop the counter. in doing so, he’s inevitably brought himself closer to cashier boy. when yoongi turns his head, he sees cashier boy up close, ensconced in moonlight, the contours of his face highlighted by shadows.
yoongi stares at cashier boy’s dark eyes, and at his eyelashes as they fan across his cheeks when he blinks slowly.
yoongi’s eyes are immediately drawn to his lips when he worries them between his teeth. if they begin leaning into each other’s orbit, none of them are the wiser.
suddenly, yoongi feels a sharp sting on his forearm. at the same time, cashier boy jerks away, hissing in pain.
something is etching itself into yoongi’s skin and he squeezes his arm to try to take away some of the pain.
his arm is still searing when the lights flicker back on.
“god, what the fuck was that-” yoongi looks down at his right arm, all red and puffy, and sees a tattoo.
it's a lock.
yoongi looks up in shock.
cashier boy has a similar look on his face. and on his left arm, is a tattoo of a key.
there's still specks of blood on cashier boy's fresh tattoo and yoongi grabs a nearby napkin and slowly dabs on it.
cashier boy flinches slightly, but yoongi places a hand on his upper arm to comfort him, to ground him. yoongi traces the boy’s tattoo lightly with his thumb and looks back at his own. a perfect match.
“i’m yoongi. min yoongi.”
cashier boy smiles softly. “jungkook.”

/
yoongi is rudely awakened by big bang’s ‘bang bang bang’ - why did he let his boyfriend pick his ringtone?
said boyfriend stirs in his sleep, burying his face deeper into yoongi’s shoulder and wrapping his arms tighter around yoongi’s waist. “mmph - hyung. make it stop. let’s nap more.”
yoongi turns his head and places a kiss atop jungkook’s forehead, “sorry baby. just let me take this real quick.”
he blindly grabs around for his cell phone and sees namjoon’s caller id lighting up.
“what.”
“hyung! what the fuck. what is happening.”
yoongi groans. “yes, what is happening. please enlighten me.”
“me and jin have matching bruises! even cuts and everything! i met up with him today and remember that cut i got on my palm? he had one too, and then we realized we have the same injuries!”
yoongi tries to process this information as fast as he can with a sleep-addled brain. “so, he’s a masochist?”
“no! god, no. he’s the one with the sun tattoo! remember how my sun tattoo appeared? well, he’s the one that had it, and he said that a moon tattoo appeared on him! like mine! hyung, we’re matching!”
“well, congratulations.” yoongi sounds grumpy, but he means it. “though i feel bad for jin. you’re a fucking klutz. don’t kill him before you ask him out officially.” he yawns. “i’m going back to sleep.”
with that, yoongi hangs up and turns back to wrap himself around jungkook.
“hyung, what was that about?” jungkook murmurs with his eyes still closed.

DIY Garden Fence
Building a DIY garden fence is ideal to keep pests like rabbits and deer out of the garden so you can ensure you will have a successful harvest for all the hard work you have put in. So when we opened up a new field we decided and designed a simple and cost-effective fence with varying options so you can be inspired to do something similar with minimal effort and simple materials while still looking beautiful.
You're reading: DIY Garden Fence
What is the Cheapest Garden Fence to Build?
Building a great garden fence inexpensively and efficiently is easy with galvanized fencing, t-posts, and just using Cedar 4×4 for the corners to hold the fence. Add a simple gate with 2 more additional Cedar posts. The metal fencing is easy to install at a reasonable price compared to lumber. Choose the fencing you want for your fence aesthetically. You can find great prices on metal fencing at stores like Lowe’s or local Farm Equipment stores in your area. A few quick things to know about building your garden fence on a budget:
Use steel or aluminum rolled fencing: this fencing will both be efficient in covering a large area, but also will
Use T-Posts and not U-posts for the fencing support: Using t-posts is an effective and inexpensive way to build your garden fence with less lumber.
Borrow Tools and Supplies from Friends: If you aren’t going to continue building things save money by finding a way to borrow tools from friends and neighbors. This makes it more cost-effective.
Why Do You Need a Garden Fence?
We have a garden fence to keep pests out more than anything. Keeping deer out in particular in Northern Michigan is very important and essential to a great garden.
Keep our chickens in. We plan to let our chickens clean up our garden at the end of the season and they will get the chance to daily forage out there for a few hours each day. The hope is this will improve the soil as well especially since we have determined that this will be where we have our tomatoes and peppers and beans which take a lot of nutrients to grow.
It can keep a beautiful aesthetic to your space and create a cozy experience.
What to Consider for Your DIY Garden Fence:
Think about how to adapt it as need be. We designed the fence with tall corner posts but used a lower fence because this saves materials but also because if deer choose to jump it we will simply add metal cord from post to post which will just as effectively keep them out as more fencing that is super high and adds double the cost. In most cases, even in high-density deer population areas, this is MORE than effective.
Cedar is the most non-toxic option, but more expensive. So when we place wood into the ground it is very important to use wood that is graded for ground contact. This typically means either Cedar or a Pressure Treated Pine. Pressure-treated wood has a lot of chemicals and if you are using this around a garden where you will be growing food this isn’t a good thing as the plants will ingest that in the water and soil and ultimately it gets to you…YUCK! So make sure you use Cedar. It is more expensive but buying less galvanized fencing and using T-posts will help with that cost.
Use T-Posts instead of more Wood posts to save money. T-posts are metal posts that you drive into the ground and they are just effective especially between posts. They are much less expensive than a 4×4 cedar post is so you can save money and they look just as good especially once you have things climbing your fence as they are green.
Place a post every 4-8 feet depending on the length of your fencing. It is REALLY important to have a fence that stays vertical and upright and even that you have post-specific distances away from each other. Otherwise, it will get floppy and won’t be as strong.
Begin with Corner Posts and use a Level. It is VERY important to make sure your corner posts are straight and level up and down. They need to be cemented into the ground as well.
Have a gate and have fun with it. We wanted a little fence that allowed us the chance to grow things up a small little arbor. We haven’t chosen what will grow but we love the option it gives us. The gate uses simple black outdoor hardware for the gate and just kept it simple making a square and putting the fencing in the middle.
Building your own DIY garden fence takes some work for sure, but if you do it right it can be an attractive and beautiful addition to your home and gardening life so you can worry less about pests like deer and rabbits.

6 – 8′ or 10′ Cedar 4″x4″ Posts – $184.62

The total (pre-tax) cost of our DIY garden Fence for a 30×35 foot garden bed was: $583.84
To build your Own DIY Garden Fence here is the how-to:
Measure the depth of how deep the posts will go. We chose 10′ cedar 4×4 posts and put them 2′-3′ into the ground depending upon the grade of the location. We wanted the fence to look level from a distance so the uphill posts are 3′ deep and the downhill posts are 2′ deep.
2. Before you add any concrete, level the posts with support braces and check the vertical level on all sides.

3. The BEST tip for the entire garden fence is to choose Fast-Setting Quickrete. You literally dump the dry bag into the hole and spray enough water to wet the concrete and leave it. In about 45 min it’s complete.
4. Typically the primary reason for constructing a garden fence is to keep deer out of your garden. However, there are also animals and pests that like to dig under your fence. Therefore if you drop the fence one to two feet into the ground it will keep critters from digging under your fence.
5. After you have set the corner and gate-posts for your garden fence, it’s time to drive all of your t-posts into the ground. Make sure they are the same height on the top with a guideline and do not fill in the trench yet.
6. Now that you have all of your cedar posts, and your t-posts set for your garden fence, it is time to roll out the welded wire fence and begin attaching it to the corner posts and t-posts.
7. To add a clean, but also safe, look to the garden fence we added some corner cap boards to cover up the areas where two peices of welded wire joined together.

8. Finally, the last step in your garden fence is to build or add your gate. We used the extra cedar boards from our deck to layout a gate with some of the extra welded wire.

Living in Rome: A Guide For Digital Nomads
Imagine starting your morning with a shot of espresso and a freshly baked cornetto before making your way to your co-working space. Your walk takes you down a winding cobblestone path, past colorful Reinassance buildings and trickling fountains. After work, you plan to head to the local market before meeting up with some of your new friends for refreshing afternoon Aperitivo.
If you plan to live and work in Rome, your days could be spent doing exactly that. This is one of the best places to visit in Italy, for sure.
After living in Rome for several months, I can attest that Rome is one of the best places for freelancers and digital nomads. Not only is the cost of living in Rome relatively affordable, but you’ll also have the opportunity to meet plenty of expats just like yourself.
If you’ve ever considered moving to Rome, then this article is for you. I’ll cover why you should live in Rome, how to find accommodation, and where to book a co-working space. I’ll even give you a few insider tips on where to eat and what to see during your stay.
After this article, you’ll be on your way to a new, unforgettable journey in Italy. Here’s my digital nomad guide to living in Rome.
Cost of Living in Rome
Although it’s considered one of the most expensive cities in Italy, Rome can still be affordable. Here’s a breakdown of expenses that you should take into account when living in Rome.
Accommodation Costs in Rome
Generally speaking, the closer you live to the historic city center, the more expensive your rent will be. If you don’t mind taking the tram or subway, you can find a cheaper apartment in the suburbs or outskirts of Rome.
Depending on the neighborhood, renting a private studio or 1-bedroom apartment will cost around 800€ – 1400€ ($880 – $1,545 USD) per month, including utilities. Shared flats are cheaper, and you can expect to pay anywhere from 400€-1000€ ($440 – $1,100) per month. Keep in mind that furnished flats will cost more.
Food Costs in Rome
One of the best things about living in Rome is eating local cuisine. Fortunately, Romans take their cooking very seriously, and there are plenty of dining options for every budget. On average, you can expect to pay the following prices when eating out in a restaurant in Rome:
3-course meal for two people at a mid-range restaurant: 70€ ($77)
Fast food meal with drink: 6€ ($6.60)
.5 liter of local beer: 3€ ($3.30)
Bottle of wine: 20€ ($22)
Bottle of water: 1€ ($1.10)
If you are sticking to a budget, don’t worry; groceries in Rome are much cheaper than in other parts of Europe. Not to mention, there are tons of markets throughout the city that sell fresh, organic produce of the highest quality. If you plan on cooking while living in Rome, you can pay the following prices for grocery store ingredients:
Loaf of bread: 1€ ($1.10)
Local cheese: 2€ ($2.20)
12 eggs: 2.50€ ($2.75)
Bottle of wine: 5.00€ ($5.50)
Bottle of beer: 1.10€ ($1.20)
1kg chicken breast: 3.80€ ($4.20)
Going out for drinks in Rome can be cheap, if you know where to go! Hotel bars, touristy areas, and cocktail lounges sell drinks that are just as expensive as other parts of the Western world. However, you can still find affordable bars and lounges that sell cheap drinks.
Cocktail in mid-range bar: 10€ ($11)
Cocktail in expensive bar: 15€ ($16.50)
Glass of wine in mid-range bar: 4€ ($4.40)
Afternoon apperitvo: 5€ ($5.50)
Transportation Costs in Rome
If you live in the city center of Rome, you’ll have plenty of public transportation options available. It’s important to note that tourists and foreigners are not allowed to drive in the historic city center of Rome. However, you can still take buses, trams, trains, and taxi to most destinations around the city. Note, there is Uber in Rome, but you are only able to order Uber Black, Uber Lux or Uber Van.
Single ticket (1 zone) : 1.50€ ($1.65)
Monthly ticket: 35€ ($38.60)
Taxi (1 mile): 6€ ($6.60)
Best Neighbourhoods in Rome
Within Rome’s city limits, there are 14 distinct neighborhoods – or riones, as the locals say. Each rione has a unique identity, and it’s up to you to decide which one fits your style and budget. Here are some of my favorite places to stay in Rome.
Trastevere
Located on across the Tiber river, Trastevere is considered Rome’s most picturesque rione. With ivy-lined brick buildings and charming courtyard cafes, Trastevere oozes with Italian style and atmosphere. At night, the neighborhood becomes one of the hippest nightlife areas, with students, locals, and visitors spilling out into the street with glasses of wine. Even though you’re a 10-minute walk from Centro Storico, you’ll feel as if you’re miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Monti
A stone’s throw from Roma Termini Station is the quaint Monti district. Dotted with boutique stores, hip cafes, and small wine bars, this cozy neighborhood attracts visitors and locals alike. At night, you’ll find plenty of local Italians sitting outside in one of the squares, listening to music and chatting with friends. This is a great place to live if you want to see the cooler, artistic side of Rome that most tourists overlook.
Centro Storico
If you want to be in the center of it all, there’s no better rione than Centro Storico. Home to jaw-dropping attractions like the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain, Centro Storico is the heart of the city. There’s no shortage of restaurants, shops, or bars. However, there is one downside: you’ll be sharing your space with thousands of other people!
Testaccio
Tucked away in the south of the city is the residential neighborhood of Testaccio. Although you may see a tourist or two around, this is an excellent option for people who want an authentic taste of real Roman life. You’re still within walking distance of Centro Storico, but you’re lightyears away from the hectic and slightly chaotic masses of crowds. Foodies will also love being right next door the famous Mercato Testaccio, which is open every day except Sunday.
Co-working Spaces in Rome
Before you start working as a digital nomad in Rome, it’s crucial to find a reliable and functional co-working space. Fortunately, Rome has dozens of fun and unique co-working offices to choose from.
Millepiani – Located south of the city is Rome’s award-winning co-working space, Millepiani. Monthly prices start at just 75€ ($82.75) a desk and come with free internet, printing, meeting room usage, and even an on-site kitchen. If you’re looking for a space bursting with creative atmosphere, then Millepiani is the spot for you.
FAMO COSE – Situated in the heart of Pignento, FAMO COSE is not your average co-working space. They cater to creative and hands-on freelancers by providing photography darkrooms, 3D printers and scanners, and even carpentry and welding tools. A one-month membership starts at just 150€ ($165) per person.
Cowo 360 – As one of the more traditional spaces in Rome, Cowo 360 is an affordable option for digital nomads. Desks can be rented hourly, daily, or monthly, which is ideal for those needing a bit more flexibility. They also host a variety of events, such as networking meetups and instructional courses.
Finding Rome Accommodation
In a city with almost three million residents, finding the ideal apartment can prove challenging. However, there are several Rome accommodation websites you should use to help you with your search. These English sites cater to foreigners and expats needing both long-term and short-term stays.
SpotAHome – think of SpotAHome like a long-term Airbnb Rental. All furnished flats are individually rented by the owner. What really makes SpotAHome stand out is that a SpotAHome employee personally verifies the flats that are listed. Some employees also shoot walk-through videos, so you know exactly what you’re renting. This is the service I used while living in Rome for several months, and I couldn’t have been happier with the flat!
NestPick – is an English website that aggregates thousands of furnished flat listings for Rome. Their easy to use search system allows you to filter between different neighborhoods, and desired move in and move out date. Learn more here.
ZappyRent – whether you’re searching for a shared room or a private flat, ZappyRent has a wide selection of apartments in Rome. You can filter by size, budget, and location. The best thing about ZappyRent is that it’s completely free to use! You can rent a flat directly from the owner without paying extra fees or commission prices.
Top Things to Do in Rome
Once you arrive in Rome, you’ll probably want to head straight for the ancient Colosseum or Roman Forum. After all, no visit to Rome would be complete without visiting these iconic landmarks! However, if you look beyond the major tourist attractions when travelling Rome, you’ll find that the city is teeming with unique attractions around every corner.
Here are some of the best touristy (and non-touristy) things to do in the Eternal City.
Campo de’ Fiori and Mercato Testaccio
As one of the oldest markets in Rome, Campo de’ Fiori is a lively place in the center of the city. This market operates from 7 am to 2 pm Monday through Saturday, and sells everything from fresh flowers and vegetables to Italian spices and souvenirs. Although it’s more touristy than other markets in Rome, its Campo de’ Fiori is still a great place to watch Roman daily life.
For a more authentic market experience, head to Mercato Testaccio in the charming Testaccio neighborhood. Attracting a local crowd, Mercato Testaccio sells a variety of goods, including clothes, kitchen supplies, and fresh produce. Don’t forget to stop by Mordi & Vai, a hole-in-the-wall sandwich shop that’s possibly more famous than the market itself.
Villa Borghese
If you’re looking to escape the hustle of the city, head to the top of Villa Borghese, one of the largest parks in Rome. Home to lush gardens, world-famous museums, and sprawling grass fields, Villa Borghese is an urban oasis where you can unwind.
Stop by Galleria Borghese, which contains a vast collection of artistic masterpieces from Bernini, Rossi, and Rotari. Or bring a picnic and a bottle of wine and soak in the sun for a relaxing afternoon. Make sure to stop by Viale del Muro Torto for an unbeatable and dramatic view of Rome.
The Vatican
Whether you’re admiring the Sistine Chapel or marveling at the grandiose St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Vatican is a must-see while in Rome. This tiny city-state is home to the Roman Catholic Church and attracts millions of visitors every year.
If you’re hoping to catch a glimpse of the Pope, then you’re in luck! The easiest way to see the Pope is during the Papal Audience, which takes place every Wednesday at 10 or 10:30 am. It’s free to attend, but make sure to come early to snag a good seat.
Baths of Caracalla
Dating back to the 3rd century, the Baths of Caracalla is one of the best-preserved ruins of a traditional Roman bathhouse. In fact, the blueprint of the baths influenced many other notable buildings that were built around Rome.
During your visit, you’ll be able to walk the same path as the ancient Romans. Visit the swimming pool, on-site libraries, and even a frigidarium – or cold room. You’ll even have a chance to see the colorful mosaic tiles and statues that once adorned the walls of the bathhouse.
WiFi and SIM Cards in Rome
With a SIM card, it’s easy to stay connected to family and friends while living in Rome. You can buy a prepaid SIM card at the airport, or in a mobile phone store like Vodaphone, TIM, or WIND 3. You’ll need to make sure your smartphone is “unlocked” so that you can add an international SIM card.
If you’re staying in Rome for an extended period, you’ll need to top up your card. All you have to do is visit a tobacco shop, newsstand, or supermarket to add more money to your SIM card. Keep in mind that most places only take cash in Euros. Foreign credit cards might not be accepted.
WiFi is also readily available in most tourist areas. Cafes, restaurants, and hotels offer free WiFi to patrons. You might be able to find city-wide hotspots in Centro Storico and other popular neighborhoods.
Best Restaurants in Rome
There’s no doubt that Rome is home to some of the best restaurants on the planet. Whether you’re eating homemade pasta from a family-run restaurant or sampling traditional fried artichokes and risotto balls, Rome has something for every taste.
As a rule of thumb, you should look for smaller restaurants away from popular tourist attractions. Restaurants located near the Colosseum, Pantheon, and Trevi Fountain tend to be overpriced and less authentic compared to other restaurants in Rome.
After living in Rome and eating my way through dozens of restaurants, I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite places.
Roma Sparita – Tucked away in the back streets of Trastevere, this charming establishment still manages to keep its old-school Italian charm. During the summer, you can enjoy your meal in the sun-soaked terrace out front. You can’t go wrong with any dish here, but take my advice and order the cacio e pepe, a simple Roman pasta dish made with pecorino cheese and freshly ground pepper. It’s by far the best version I found in Rome!
La Salumeria – For the best selection of cold cuts, cheeses, and sandwiches, head to La Salumeria next to the Sant’Angelo bridge. This deli-style restaurant serves gourmet charcuterie boards filled with homemade jams, Italian cured meats, and mouth-watering cheeses. If you don’t see a mix you like, you can also customize your own platter with your favorites.
Pizzarium – Located near Vatican City, Pizzarium takes pizza to the next level. The brainchild of famous chef Gabriele Bonci, Pizzarium whips up unique flavors that change by the hour. These rectangular pizzas are cut and sold by the weight, so go ahead and try as many types that you want!
Osteria del Sostengo – You know you’re in a good restaurant when the whole place is overflowing with locals! Osteria del Sostengo has all the features of the perfect Italian restaurant – friendly service, fresh meats and pasta, and a neverending list of wines. The only downside is that the place is so popular that you’ll probably end up waiting a while for a table.
Transportation in Rome
Getting around the inner city of Rome using public transport is relatively easy. One ticket allows you to take most methods of transportation, like buses, trains, and railway trams. Tickets can be purchased from the machines in the metro station, or in a tobacco shop or newsstand.
While transportation is cheap in Rome, it may not always be on time or reliable. It’s not uncommon to wait for a bus or tram for 10-20 minutes after it’s scheduled to arrive. If you need to be somewhere urgently, I recommend taking an Uber or Taxi.
Although Rome is a sprawling metropolis, it’s actually fairly easy to get around on foot. Starting at Roma Termini station, most attractions and neighborhoods can be reached within 15-20 minutes. Not only will you save money by walking, but you’ll also get the chance to see some of the city’s hidden streets, buildings, and sights.
The underground train can take you to most places in Rome, with the exception of Centro Storico. The two main lines are Linea A (red) and Linea B (blue), which intersect and meet at Roma Termini train station.
Obtaining a Visa for Italy
If you plan to stay in Rome for an extended period, you might be required to get a long-term visa.
Canadian and US citizens can enter Italy and stay for up to 90 days for the purpose of tourism without a visa. However, you will be required to obtain a visa if you plan to stay in Italy longer than three months. If you plan to put down some temporary roots in Rome, this might be an alright option for you.
British citizens can also live in Italy visa-free for up to 90 days. However, it is unknown how Brexit will impact visa procedures in the future. Specific details for British citizens will be released once Brexit has been finalized.
In Italy, long-term visas are classified as D visas. There are different types of D visas, depending on your reason for staying in Rome. If you come to Italy for work, then your company will sponsor a work visa or EU blue card. Another option is to enroll in university or school in order to receive a student visa.
Digital nomads starting their own business can apply for two different visas. Italy offers self-employment visas, as well as start-up entrepreneur visas.
The visa application process can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. For this reason, I recommend applying for your visa months before you plan to move to Rome.
Pros and Cons of Living in Rome
Living in Rome as a digital nomad can be a life-changing experience. But just like any other country in the world, there are several strong advantages and disadvantages to keep in mind.
Pros of Living in Rome
Amazing, mouthwatering food around every corner
Centuries of history and culture in one of the world’s oldest cities
Creative and affordable co-working spaces
Lively nightlife and bar culture
Cheap transportation
Easy to travel around Italy and other places in Europe

Final Thoughts
With over 3,000 years of history, art, and culture, Rome is a breathtaking city for all types of visitors, travelers, and digital nomads. Between the iconic landmarks, historic ruins, and charming cobblestone alleyways, you’ll always have something to see and explore in Rome.
As a freelancer, Rome is also one of the best places to live. This welcoming city has a variety of co-working spaces where you can mingle with other creative nomads and expats from around the world. Housing, food, and transportation is also more affordable than other countries in Europe, which is ideal for those looking to save money or stick to a budget.
So why not spend a few months living in one of the oldest and most fascinating cities in the world? After all, you’re in Rome; enjoy delicious food, soak in the lively atmosphere, and do everything exactly as the Romans do!

Paris.
HELLO This is so delayed it’s not even funny!! I apologize!!! I have been almost a purely authentic human being for almost a month now. For the sake of my brain and for the sake of whoever is reading this, it’s going to be more of an outline than a narrative.
My story begins on Thursday, February 9th. Which is literally one month ago.
British Board of Film Classification: I was here for class like I’d mentioned previously! We watched lots of movie clips to demonstrate what kind of ratings certain movies get and for what reason. It was actually really interesting and I’m always down to learn more about movies.
Flight: After that I came home, finished packing up my stuff, ate some dinner, and we left for Gatwick Airport, which is basically my second home at this point. I think our flight was actually the last flight to leave Gatwick at 9:30, which isn’t really that late? Not sure. We got to Paris at 11:30 (we gained an hour, and our flight was only about 45 minutes long) and ubered to our hotel where we met Natalie, who’d flown in that morning. We went to sleep pretty quickly so we’d be ready for a full day on Friday.
Friday, Feb. 10th
The Louvre: We woke up relatively early, grabbed a croissant, and walked ~20 minutes to the Louvre. I had no idea that the building used to be a palace, but it was pretty apparent while we walked through it. Because we were only in Paris for a few days, we had to go through the museums pretty efficiently and not as slowly as would be ideal. We saw the Mona Lisa, of course, and the Venus de Milo. We wandered around for a while and saw more paintings, and did some people watching. Overall pretty cool time.
Brunch brunch brunch: we went to a place called Eggs & Co., which really sounds like my mecca. I had an eggs benny and it was pretty decent. It was nice to sit down and chill for a bit. The staff was really friendly though, which is apparently rare for Paris, so that was a plus.
Musee d’Orsay: From brunch we went into this beautiful, beautiful building. I loved this museum, from its architecture to its overall structure to its contents. Really nice. When Carly was recommending me places to go she said it was here favorite and I understand why. It was an aesthetic dream. Huge fan. Impressionism is a crowd pleaser and I was very pleased. I probably could have cried tears of happiness in there actually. The body couches near the giant clock face was a plus.
Walk to the Champs Elysees: When we left the museum, it was snowing outside. Great. We walked along the Seine, through the Jardin de Tuileries, and to Laduree for some delicious macarons. The chocolate hazelnut was my favorite. We swung by Place de Condorde on our way to the Champs Elysees. Everything in Paris is so grand and charming, which fits the general description I think. We walked all the way up to the Arc de Triomphe, stopping into Sephora on the way to watch a quick flash mob.
Eiffel Tower: Go figure, from the Arc we head to watch the Eiffel tower get lit up. It was cold so we had some warm crepes. After we stared at that beautiful piece of metal for a bit, we decided to head back to the hotel.
Dinner: I’m not really sure how this happened, but on the way back to the hotel we ended up buying meats, cheeses, and wine at some local shops and devouring it in our room. Jasmine made us a nice platter and it was lovely. After we ate we debated going out and ultimately everyone went out while I stayed in because I wasn’t really feeling 100%. I passed out and hardly even woke up when they came back.
Saturday, Feb. 11th
Breakfast: On our walk to Montmarte, we stopped at a café that Sarah’s sister had recommended called Rose Bakery. I had a leek and chorizo quiche and it was amazing. We also ate a lot of bread. Always a good time.
Sacre Coeur and Montmarte: From breakfast, we walked up the hill and up the stairs to the Sacre Coeur. It is absolutely huge. We peeked inside and took in the view from the top of the hill, although it was really overcast and the visibility was not great. It was cool though. From there we walked through the neighborhood, which was really cute, and stopped to see the “I love you” wall (it just has I love you painted on in a bunch of languages) and for macarons of course. We circled around to see Moulin Rouge, before taking the Metro down to the islands.
Notre Dame: The next item on our list was to go visit Quasimodo. The interior of this church was unreal; pretty much the crème de la crème of gothic cathedrals, and soooo iconic. It was neat. If the visibility had been better we might have tried to go up to the top, but it wasn’t really worth at this point.
From the Notre Dame we went out in search of ice cream from Berthillon, whose main location was closed as it was still “winter”. We ended up just going somewhere that served their ice cream. It was still really great, I had the coffee flavor which is a staple.
Shakespeare and Co: Of course we had to swing by this place. I could have plopped down and stayed there all day. It is the book lover’s dream and it is so small and cozy I wanted to live there. Living across an ocean for 4 months with limited luggage space is pretty much a living nightmare for an impulse book buyer like myself, so I had to hold back and not get anything.
Pantheon: From Shakespeare and Co. we walked to the French Pantheon. Copying the Romans but also the Greeks so why not both, eh France? We saw lots of tombs here! Voltaire, Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas, Louis Braille, and Marie Curie, who was the first woman buried there “on her own merits.” The building itself was huge, and there were lots of paintings and statues and memorials in it. Personal favorite was the wall about Joan of Arc.
Centre Pompidou: We took the metro to the Centre Pompidou to end our long day of looking at old stuff. This building is absolutely incredible and it houses a Modern and Contemporary Art Museum, as well as a library, shops, and temporary gallery space. It was very cool. There was neon signage all throughout the lobby, and the entrance to the 2 floors that house the permanent exhibits is via a very long and sequenced escalator that’s visible on the front of the building. We got a nice view of (still gloomy) Paris at night and also walked though their modern art galley, which included Picasso, Matisse, Dali, Pollock, Warhol, etc etc etc. Then we zipped to the contemporary floor and I had a blast. Contemporary art is just a lot of fun, in the sense that you can look at it and be like what the heck. Definitely an obtuse form of art, but I had a good time looking at sculpture that I didn’t understand. There was also a room of flow charts and mental maps by this hilarious woman from New England, which is right up my alley.
Dinner: Jas found us a dinner spot near the museum and we sat down for an intimidating French meal! We tried both foie gras and escargot. Escargot I really liked, foie gras was not my favorite. Solid meal though, and it was nice to sit down for a bit after running around for most of the day.
Afterwards we just walked back to our hotel, of course we stopped and had more crepes for dessert, and wandering into Les Halles, which is a big, lit-up mall area that’s covered by a really modern structure. It was empty and everything was closed because it was late, but it was really cool to see. Then we meandered back to the hotel and fell asleep.
Sunday, Feb. 12th
Eiffel Tower & Champ de Mars: On Sunday, we woke up, packed, and dropped off our luggage with reception. Then we hopped on the Metro and went to go see the Eiffel Tower in the daylight. It was still gloomy as heck though. The Champ de Mars was gated off because we were there in the winter (!) so we didn’t get those cute lawn pics that are plastered all over the internet. We grabbed some coffee after walking underneath it (we didn’t feel like going up because a) visibility was bad and b) a view of Paris without the tower isn’t super great anyway). We were making our way across the Seine to go to the Trocadero gardens when I turned to the left and saw THE BRIDGE FROM INCEPTION. I wish I had a record of the face that I made when I made this essential discovery and I grabbed everyone and basically sprinted over there. Filming locations reel me in so easily over here it’s ridiculous. I was also thinking about the scene from Parks and Rec where Ben takes Leslie to Paris and he just really wants to see the Bridge from Inception even though the Eiffel Tower is right behind him. Basically, that was me. After I took way too many pictures over there we were back on course to go to the Trocadero Gardens to get another angle of the Eiffel Tower and also just check out the area. It was really grand, as most thing in Paris are, and we got a group picture.
Lunch: We got on the metro up near the overlook and headed to lunch at L’as du Falafel, which was recommended to us by I think a few different people actually. We all had pitas and they were amazing. Huge fan. Banzo-level food feelings were felt. After lunch we walked around Les Marais for a bit and made our way to see the Bastille monument which was largely covered in scaffolding because we were there during the off season. Damn you, winter.
Picasso Museum: This was our next move and it was spontaneous because we had about 2 hours left in Paris and it was open in Sunday and in the area we were exploring. I’m not a huge Picasso fan but I really enjoyed the museum. I think that I like museums that focus on one artist in particular because you get to learn more about their lives and how they’ve developed their skills over time. I didn’t know that he experimented in so many different media, especially pottery! The building was also really cool and it had mostly a simplistic whitewashed interior with some selectively ornate bits. This was art museum 4 of 4 over the weekend.
Heading out feat. Crepes: It was at this point that the sun decided to come out, which was pretty insulting given that we were about to leave. Of course on our walk back to pick up our bags we stopped for crepes again. Not only were they the best crepes we’d had the whole time, they were also the biggest and most filling, to the point where I felt ill for a solid hour and especially on the way to the airport. Yikes. We met Natalie there about 30 minutes before we started boarding.
When we got home, the BAFTAs were in full swing 2 blocks away from our flat at Royal Albert Hall. They’d just wrapped up the red carpet when we made it back to London and I just about fainted because I could have laid my eyes upon our lord and savior Meryl Streep and I missed it. RIP in peace. Our flat’s TV was being kinda janky so we didn’t even get to watch it live. Instead I watched the SNL from the night before and passed out.
I was really hesitant about Paris. I’ve only really ever heard of people loving or hating Paris and I’ve also only really heard of people hating the French. I won’t lie, I didn’t really love the French either – out of all the places I’ve been so far they were certainly the least pleasant to interact with and the most confusing when it comes to how to speak to them.
I loved every museum that we went to in Paris; that was hands down the best part. We ate a ton and being the macaron enthusiast that I am, it was a highlight. It’s definitely a trade off with one of the most visited cities in the world: going in the “winter” means that the museums aren’t overcrowded and you can see a lot in one weekend. Going in the summer though, it must be beautiful. The gardens are probably mind-blowing and walking along the river has got to be pleasant. So I was a little sad that we missed out on that, but also happy to be able to walk right up to the Mona Lisa. I think that weather definitely has an impact on much you like a place. If I was only in Madison in January of every year I think I’d have a very different opinion on the city.
So, there ya go. I’ll be posting another blog shortly about the week that followed this trip! Hopefully I can catch up within the next week or so, I have a blog about my spring break in Italy ready to go, so look out for that.
