Re: That'd be where Powell's comes in, then. Camilla Send a noteboard - 02/08/2012 07:41:18 AM
but then I decided I wanted proper health care, the right to privacy and not to be confined indefinitely without trial etc.

The Northwest cities (Seattle + Portland) were really awesome, and they are more European in many regards than California or most other states. Though I'm not too sure on the health care situation...


San Francisco felt surprisingly European. As did parts of Santa Cruz. But I think I know what you mean.

And I had already seen Shakespeare and Co, so I knew I had recourse to similar delights closer to home.

Where's that one?


Paris. Just behond the Notre Dame.

But it was lovely.

Definitely. The Strand on the other side of the country, in downtown Manhattan, is also a bookstore worth a long detour.
