dear friend stina has lived in paris for one year. 
she equipped us with an audiotour of saint-germain-des-prés. 
we did not know what to expect, just plugged in the ear-phones and listened. 

there we walked, side by side, and a secret world appeared. 
the french-english voice took us through small passages, narrow streets, secret courtyards. 
she told us stories about musicians, painters, writers (and their lovers), jazz clubs. 
she made us entering a gallery, an art café, and old hotel (where oscar wilde died!). 
it was a magic afternoon, a time travel, a feeling of being just us in the heart of paris.
