Paris! I love this city very much. It has everything - art, people, food, museums, monuments, hustle and bustle or quite and calm. It has the largest population of a city in the whole of Europe and attracts millions and millions of tourists from all over the world.

I've been to Paris twice - once in 1987 for a couple of days then for 5 days recently for Christine's 21st birthday and La Fete Nationale (Bastille Day). We had such a great time and we want to go back every year for the rest of our lives!
