Bed in a bookstore

I love the clutter!!! Just like my room.

:P

From Wikipedia:

Shakespeare and Company, is an independent bookstore located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris's Left Bank. Shakespeare and Company serves as a bookstore and also a lending library, specializing in English-language literature. The upstairs also serves as a makeshift dormitory for travelers, known as "tumbleweeds," who earn their keep by working in the shop for a couple of hours each day.

This is also the bookstore in the opening of Before Sunset.

I remember visiting Shakespeare and Co over 15 years ago, and wondering about the beds in the bookshop... Nice to see this is still happening; Paris being the capital of bourgeoisie not bohemians of Europe, on this century.

I want my room to be like this... with a slightly longer bed. Actually, if I had enough money, my room would already be like this. As it is, I've got books collecting in five different places.
