  • While traveling to any foreign country or city you will find that the shops selling souvernirs near any major tourist attraction will be charging you the most. Try to have a list of the things that you want to purchase on your trip and make notes as to where you can find these items. Many times just going to a less 'touristy' area you can find much nicer quality and unique gifts.

     Hi Janet, it was great to meet you here in Frankfurt last April! I've just been reading the fine new tips & updates that you have added to your Paris page since I last looked on February 27. I haven't been to Paris this year yet, sniff. Maybe in December.

     Janet, Paris is loveliest in May and every other month as well. Seeing your photos reminded me of the #1 gourmet dinner of all time I enjoyed at les Ambassadeurs au Crillon. oh mon dieu! Fantastique!
