During the pandemic time Paris as almost all big cities showed its face that the viewer has never seen before: without any ideal mask on it, without shining shop windows and without tourists. This time definitely became special to me, it gave the possibility to breath in Parisian style - to be free, to be myself and to be at the same time a part of the biggest culture, as all this people on the pictures. They all have their personal stories to tell, they all were so open-minded to hear yours without any rush, they all were so enthusiastic to welcome me in their home town as never before.
