We moved to Paris in January, 2003, when my husband was transferred here (a tough assignment, but someone has to do it!) and it was home for two years. Paris is a wonderful place to live. With each day came an exciting adventure as we set up a home, learned to get around the city, learned a new language, adjusted to cultural differences, and explored all that Paris, and Europe, had to offer.
We met many kind people in our time there, both locals and other expats from all over the world. We never ran out of places to explore and opportunities to learn. You can spend two days, two weeks or two years in Paris and the time spent will have an effect on you.
If you are lucky enough to visit this beautiful city of light remember to take your time here. Enjoy a walk in the park, linger over a caf? creme at a cafe, and savor a glass of wine in the afternoon. Let Paris permeate your soul and make it your city?it?s so easy to do!
I wish you "bon voyage et ayez un bon temps!"
- Pros:It's never boring!

Since I am always looking for les toilettes, I was glad to read about the parking lots. There is also a very clean free and attended toilette at the Pont Neuf METRO stop right in front of the old La Samaritane.
Hi Kelly Anne, having been to the movies 3 times in Paris and noticing no snack vendors I wondered what the deal was. Ah, now I know I can take snacks in!! Thanks! I will certainly take your advice on that next time. :) Ahem, I LOVE L'Ete en Pente Douce.
Very good tips Kelly Anne, thanks for sharing! Linda
Merci from one été en pente douce fan to another. I hope you'll do some Asia pages soon
Could you please send a photo of your husband's large and perfectly prepared tamales?
Hi Kelly Anne, I love Hotel Verneuil and Paris too. Stayed at the Verneuil in Feb. and it's all you described and more. I've recommended it too. Although you're saying adieu to Paris another travel chapter will begin in Singapore.
Great tips! Paris is a great city, you must be having a blast living there...
Super info -- how about some more now that you've been there for a while?? I'll be back in September and will hope to see you then :)))
Lovely to revisit your Paris pages now 3 months since visiting & enjoying that lovely lunch with you! Aaah la belle Paris still tries to draw me back!
Your tips are awesome...exactly what I'm looking for in this site. Keep going. I'll be checking regularly before our trip to Paris in the fall. Thanks.
