Thanks to Muriel for sharing her story on *LEGEND Story*. Muriel Ferrari lost her mother when she was just two years old; raised by her grandmother, she ran away from home and arrived in Paris at 14, where she lived on the streets. Drugs, theft, prostitution—she owns it all, without regret: "If I had to do it all over again, I would." At 48, she took her life in a completely different direction and opened a *bouchon lyonnais* (traditional Lyonnais bistro). Today, Muriel runs the *Café des Artisans*—known as "Muriel’s Bouchon"—and is pursuing her journey as a writer.
