We met through a mutual friend, when she visited Amsterdam about 5 years ago. We hung out few times during that summer, but were out of touch afterwards. She then contacted me via Facebook when she was visiting London this summer.
It was quite a brief encounter 5 years ago, but I remember her quite well, admiring her as it was instantly recognizable how special this girl is. Free spirit, a bit crazy, a lot of fun, but also very smart. After 5 years, she was still the same, sharing me exciting stories about Paris.
She's now studying Textile Design in Paris. I knew she'd be an artist!
I'm grateful that she remembered me and contacted me. Was good to hear that I also made a good impression on her back then.
彼女のパリジャンヌで自由奔放、しっかりしていて、気取らない生き方に衝撃を受けて、「なんてかっこいいんだ！」と感動したのは、５年前。私がまだ１５歳の頃。
一夏のアムステルダムでの出会いだったのが、この夏また再会出来てとても嬉しかった。今はパリの美大でテキスタイルデザインをやっているそう。なんだかんだ、昔からの友達で今でも仲がいい人はアートやデザイン関係の子ばかり。二人きりで喋ったことなんてろくになかったのに、久しぶりの再会でも、幾日も話題が尽きなかった。
