Paris

Before we came here, I prepared myself for the fact that Paris isn’t always cute and beautiful, which was true. Don't get me wrong, there are some really pretty areas to Paris, but it is also just another big city. We did the things that people are “supposed” to do in Paris, such as climbing the Eiffel tower, which was fun, and seeing the Arch de Triumph, which was covered in scaffolding. Although, we didn’t go inside the Louvre because we're not big into art, and there are an extreme amount of paintings in the Louvre. I'm sure it would be cool to see, but I'm fine to miss it. The river Seine was really pretty, and the accordion music that was being played added a French atmosphere.

We stayed in a tiny apartment, for only three nights. Cities aren’t exactly where we like to stay for long times. So, besides the Eiffel tower and the one museum we went to, we spent our time wandering in the streets of Paris, and eating baguettes. I also got the experience of taking the subway, which was cool. There were lots of opportunities for people watching, and there is a really diverse crowd in Paris, which was interesting to see. Pretty much everywhere is crammed with people, or at least that is how it felt through my eyes. I'm so glad I don't live in the city. Also, just like I've mentioned before, there is a high population of stray animals, and beggars, which isn't a very uplifting sight. It's sad to see no efforts at all trying to help, well, none that I know of.

I'm very glad that we got to see Paris, but I'm also looking forward to the next place we're going to. I have to apologize for not keeping up with the blog very faithfully, because I'm actually in Morocco at the moment, not in France.
