The pair move to Paris and join the artistic community from "summary" of The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas by Gertrude Stein
And then there was the time when we decided to move to Paris. It was a bold decision, but one that we felt was necessary for our artistic pursuits. The energy of the city called out to us, promising a vibrant and creative community that we longed to be a part of. We packed our bags, said our goodbyes, and set off on this new adventure. Arriving in Paris was like a dream come true. The streets were alive with the hum of creativity, and we were eager to immerse ourselves in this inspiring environment. We quickly found a place to stay and wasted no time in exploring the city and all it had to offer. Everywhere we turned, there were artists, writers, and musicians, each with their own unique vision and perspective. We were welcomed into this artistic community with open arms, finding kindred spirits who shared our passion for pushing boundaries and challenging conventions. We attended exhibitions, performances, and salons, soaking up the creativity that seemed to permeate every corner of the city. We were inspired by the avant-garde ideas and bold experimentation that we encountered, and it fueled our own artistic endeavors. As we settled into our new life in Paris, we found ourselves surrounded by like-minded individuals who supported and encouraged us in our creative pursuits. We collaborated with other artists, attended parties and gatherings, and engaged in lively discussions about art, literature, and philosophy. It was a time of growth and exploration, of pushing ourselves beyond our comfort zones and embracing the unknown. In Paris, we found a home among fellow artists who understood and appreciated our work. The city provided us with the freedom and inspiration we needed to truly flourish as artists, and we were grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a vibrant and dynamic community. Our decision to move to Paris was one that forever changed the course of our lives, and we were grateful for the experiences and friendships that we gained along the way.
