Paris is awesome and motivational, I have been through a few times and just always enjoyed it - the walks, the food, the language and history. This will be my fourth visit through. I am probably going to buy an apartment here, since I would like to have a European base.

The other aspect about Paris that I find so amazing is that, despite its reputation for being expensive, there is a remarkable amount of activities and sites that are free. From concerts, to gardens, to walks and cultural site seeing - Paris has many either free, or cheap venues to explore. I will try to highlight those choice morsels of economy as I build up my tip pages.

Nevertheless, whether you have tons of cash or are just eeking out a living, there is always some way to get yourself to Paris -- as an air courrier, using frequent flyer miles from a kind aunt, aboard a cargo ship that allows you to pay by washing the dishes in the mess hall. Its a wonderful place, with exciting and cultured people - something for everyone to enjoy and marvel at.

Graffitti art to take your breath away

Various cities, like New York and Montreal, are renowned for their graffitti art. Paris also has fair share of highly skilled artists and you can see their work in differing parts of the city. The picture here shows a delivery truck in the 7e. arrond. just up the road fromUNESCO. The entire piece could not be captured in one photo, plus I took it at about 5:30am. Anyway, its a sample of the free chic expression of a vibrant city, full of all kinds of people.
