Amen.

So, I was probably wrong about this, but I’m not deleting. It’s okay to be wrong sometimes.

A moka pot—because Keurig coffee, the only option at many Airbnbs, is undrinkable. Admittedly, this is less a concern internationally—but domestically it’s a must-have for me.

I definitely forget to ask stuff sometimes too, but this one was actually a confession that I rushed. I didn’t spend enough time building rapport, and the person shut down.

Hi Ben! It’s so great to reconnect!

Thanks! BTW, I thought you were an American PI named Hudson-something I followed on Twitter a long time ago, which is why I asked what you’re doing in Paris. I see now you’re a different person and are based there—so, sorry for my mistake.

Bonjour ! Que fait-tu à Paris ? J’y vais dans trois semaines.

Yay! It was alone here for a minute.
