[Dear Reader, have patience with me. I’m trying to pull together a number of thoughts and experiences in an attempt to make sense of all this. I’ve done a couple of posts that mention The Flâneur, Edmund White’s book on the Parisian pastime of wandering around exploring Paris in a relatively haphazard way. I’m drawn to this idea – though I admit to also wanting to find greater meaning in my wanderings. I’m toying with the idea of a fláneur, not necessarily wandering physically through Paris, but mentally discovering random ideas in no fixed location. This particular wandering is triggered by a museum in Paris on the History of Immigration.]
