Happy to help
January 26th, 2009I was asked directions in Paris! And I knew the answer! I have an unbroken record in every country. I plan on going to Antarctica next and helping lost people there.
This time I actually saw them decide to ask me. As I was walking up the sidewalk, I could see them looking anxiously from their map to the faces of passersby. When they saw me, both their faces lit up at the same time and their shoulders visibly relaxed. I find their confidence in me very funny, but so far I have in fact always known the answer, even when I was a stranger myself.
I stayed at the Hyatt Paris Vendôme for the first two days, then on Greffulhe Street near the Madeleine Church. “Greffulhe” looks like it should be an adjective meaning “out of breath”.
