Caption: esmeralda loves her cats, I tried counting them once. even in summer she keeps her window closed, she lives in the constant fear they may abandon her. I bet she started collecting them when her husband left her too many years ago: she used to have flowers on that balcony, then one day she decided she needed a room for her cats and someone built an additional room out of that tiny space. I guess her cats love her back.

Caption: my mom was always impressed by french people not using curtains. Katya is Russian and my mom was right, she could not be french: they met at the park, my mom said she started talking to her, but it is still a mystery to me as my mom barely speaks it. Katya is a kind person, she arrived in France when she was thirteen, she considers herself French, but her long red hair and her blue little eyes told me she was not. she plays piano and sometimes you can hear the notes coming out of her window, neighborhoods are not always happy but I think it's a bless.

Caption: Marc and Jean-Luc are brothers, but they could be twins. her mother dresses them the same, but they are way too young to complain. their older sister does not understand why they deserved the biggest room in the apartment, but she got used to her tiny room now. they also have the best view, but the only thing they care about is playing soccer when her mom is not watching them. they always want to stay up late, but just because they forgot how much they like staring at that vaulted ceiling and those little glowing stars that their mom patiently glued in a cold afternoon.

Caption: Paul and Edouard
25 / 02 / 2015
Caption: Paul and Edouard always have their breakfast outside. They sit face to face, Paul drinks too much coffee, black one of course, Edouard doesn't like hot drinks, but he sits there, sometimes with a glass of hot chocolate just to please Paul. Edouard makes the weirdest dreams, Paul does not dream or he just doesn't want to remember, but he always carefully listens to his. they like their mornings, the sunny ones and the rainy ones, they don't care that much as long as they are together.
