A cliché to many, and rightfully so, but in the mornings, before the tourist start making the line in front of the tables and chairs facing Boulevard Saint-Germain, and flock outside the iconic sign for photos to post on Instagram, this timeless gem is home to locals sipping an espresso and smoking their morning cigarette before heading off to work. During those early mornings, I loved coming here for a croissant and a green tea. I used to watch the city wake up, lovers part after one last kiss, read a few pages in my book, fantasise about life, and think about all the memories this city holds so dear to me.

This place is Paris, and Paris is this place. - Carin Olsson
