Audrey Avranches Brothel ❤️

About Bordeaux

Oh, and the smells—lordy, don’t get me started! Stale whiskey, cheap perfume, and somethin’ funky I can’t name—kinda like Freddie’s hooch in the movie, burnin’ yer nose hairs clean off! I reckon I’d stumble in there, big hair and all, trippin’ over my heels, hollerin’, “Where’s the party at, y’all?!” Prolly make a fool o’ myself, but that’s me—can’t help but love the mess o’ life. “The cause is you!”—that’s what Dodd’d say, and shoot, maybe he’s right. Brothels show us who we are, good, bad, and plumb ridiculous.

But oh man, Avranches is also known for its shady alleys near the port area. The old harbor, right off Quai de la République, buzzes in the evenings with locals havin’ a laugh, talkin’ about the tides and times gone by. I get all fired up sometimes – I mean, there’s this raw beauty, almost gritty, that gets under your skin like you’re clip-clop on rusty rails. And I can’t help but say, “Laissez faire!” to the cosmic madness of it all.
