Hi, me again with another overdue recap.
Yes, I went to Paris in the spring and here I am months later ready to tell the tale. These things take a long time, I donāt think you guys realize. But anyway, Iāll try and get to the gist of it ASAP.
This wonāt be as long as my Italy recap since I wasnāt in Paris for two weeks (yikes, that wouldāve been awfully redundant and almost boring), but I hope itās as fun and insightful for planning your next trip.
I went to Paris twice this trip. The first was unplanned, hence why the outfits were kind of whack. Again, I anticipated hot weather days. We flew here right after Sabrina and Edrickās wedding in Puglia and spent three nights here. It was last minute because we could not bear the thought of spending more time in Rome⦠We all hate Rome, sorry.
The second time I went to Paris was during the last leg of my trip, right after my visit to MƔlaga to visit my best friend Ana. My flight back home was from Charles de Gaulle, so it made sense to spend a few days in Paris before I flew home. And of course, my good friends from New York also happened to be in Paris for the Taylor Swift concert, so it was lovely to see them.
Both trips were grand overall, though the second time was probably a little better because it was finally warm and not windy, freezing or rainy.
If you all want a guide to Paris, that will be vastly different than this post. I will be visiting again shortly, so if thereās enough demand, then I shall write that up.
Alors, allons.
