Every city has a sex and an age which have nothing to do with demography. Rome is feminine. So is Odessa. London is a teenager, an urchin, and this hasn’t changed since the time of dickens. Paris, I believe, is a man in his twenties in love with an older woman.

Seriously, Paris is extremely photogenic. This is a very small portion of the 500+ pics I took.

Eiffel Tour - Paris

*Finally seeing this in real life, after years of seeing it in pictures and in movies…an unforgettable experience.

When The French Go On Strike, Everyone Pays. Even If You Are Not Going To France

France Air Traffic Control went on strike. But I am going to Spain, what does that have to do with me?
I have to fly over France to get to Spain. -_-

Paris Likes To Provide Tricks To Keep Tourists On Their Toes

If a person comes up to you asking you to ‘sign’ a petition. Keep walking.

If a person tries to tie a bracelet on your wrist. Keep walking.

If that same person tries to follow after you. Run.

Never a dull moment, Paris. ;)
