Paris is for me one of the most inspiring cities in the world. This capital of creativity entirely transformed me. And this is one of the reasons why I joined this amazing project – My Paris Story. I wish to share with you how Paris became my creative playground and show you how this magical city can unlock your own creative genius.
It happened on a sunny day. I was going to cinema with my husband and suddenly I saw him! A homeless man was sitting in front of the cinema close to Opera. He was “fishing for cash”. He made a fishing rod, hang an empty cup and waited for people passing by to give him few coins.
“This is so creative!” I said. Seconds later I was doodling the picture of fishing homeless man in my small notebook with a small note #TIWI (Today I Was Inspired). Since that day, I always carry my TIWI notebook when walking around Paris. Because this is the city where…
