3 years ago today, we arrived in France as new immigrants. We sold everything we owned in the USA, packed our suitcases, & started a new life here. It has been the best decision we ever made. The freedom, people, culture, food, & lifestyle are everything we hoped for.

Morgen erscheint meine erste Doku. CYCLING CITIES. Es geht um die schönsten Fahrradstädte Europas, um die Gegenwart, aber auch um die Vergangenheit und wie Städte wie Amsterdam & Utrecht so geworden sind, wie sie heute aussehen. Ich freu mich sehr, wenn ihr den Film anschaut. Ab Morgen auf Youtube😊

Common sense street design along rue La Fayette; wide sidewalks, 2-way protected bike lane, 1-way lane for cars, & 1 dedicated bus/taxi lane. Efficient distribution of public space to maximize the benefits.
