Camille and I were wandering, not really lost, just letting the city lead us. We found ourselves somewhere quieter than the bustling streets we had just left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were people talking nearby in soft French, nothing dramatic or loud. Just everyday conversation. A few birds in the trees. And then I heard the accordion. Someone was playing it just far enough away that I couldn\u2019t see them, but the music reached everything. It wasn\u2019t for show, it was just someone doing something they had passion for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We decided to just sit down on a bench and admire out surroundings. No photos. No rushing to the next thing. Just the background hum of Paris going about its day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That moment didn\u2019t change my life or anything. But I still think about it. How calm everything felt. How the sound created a space where I could just sit and not have to do or be anything. I love moments like those.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listen to the audio I created based on the prompt below: Can you listen to the people talking, the footsteps, accordion playing, and guess the place I created?
