Paris

by Erin74 - last update: Apr 13, 2004

Just back from a fantastic trip to Paris!

I just returned from a trip to Paris. This was my second time visiting the city and each time I learn to love it more.

I'll be adding tons of tips and photos over the next couple of weeks. Please check back for the latest, or email me if you have any Paris questions!

I spent six days in Paris this time, based in the Rue Cler/ Ecole Militaire area on the Left Bank. I also took day trips outside the city to Chartres and Versailles (pages to come). After Paris, I traveled on to Reims, east of the city. I'll also be building a page for this area soon.

Americans often hear that the French are rude and unpleasant. In my experience, just the opposite was true. All the people that I met in Paris were extremely kind and helpful, even though I did not speak French. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and found the city to be exceedingly lovely and fascinating.

Check back later... I'll have tons of new photos of one of my favorite cities!!

 Still, if the person doesn't understand English or can't answer in English, you won't get an answer and might get ignored.
