Paris is fashion, history, beautiful and old buildings. It is also a great multicultural city, with various styles of life from all over the world.

When I got out of the plane and felt the ground, a great feeling went through my body. For the first time, I'm out of my little home, my little Montreal, I'm going to see, hear, taste, enjoy something else. Paris is a city of quarters, little villages inside a big fortress. There's tons to do, but for a backpacker, it might be a good idea to avoid long trips in Paris. Cost a lot.

Didn't had any time to socialize with the locals. My first trip shut my mouth and opened my eyes for 2 weeks.

(These pictures are not mine. I'm going to add them soon, when I get my hands on them).

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Charming, full of history, great building, good food
  • Cons:Sometimes you'll find that stereotipical parisian...but I kinda like when it happens. Good laughs. Hah.
  • In a nutshell:Huge city, with a lot of people...and all the good and the bad that comes with it.
