I especially enjoyed this part of your post, Ray.
It always feels so..... I don't know, like "ice skating" to visit
someplace briefly... especially a place I am drawn to, that
feels like I am supposed to be there, if that makes any sense.

I am savoring this book of essays about an American
living in Paris in 1995. There is a difference between visiting
another place and living there. My mid-American sensibilities
were happily rocked by the comparative openness of the
Venice California gay life (1963) even before Stonewall.
It seemed as if I had died and gone to heaven. I had been
'just visiting", I might not have noticed.
