Paris
I don't know why I waited so long to tell all of you this but I'm going to be visiting Paris this April! My mother informed me of this a few months ago and I started crying, I was so happy. I have been dreaming about going to Paris for practically my entire life. Even though I have never been there, I have vicariously expierenced the city and the culture through music, food, movies, and photographs. I have dreamed about living in a Parisian apartment overlooking the city and buying baguettes from bakeries and fresh fruit from street markets. I have longed to walk the famous cobblestone paths, visit art musuems, and document my life in film. One day, I hope to be fluent in French and be able to live and work there. Paris, comment je vous adore!
If any of you have ever been to this gorgeous city, I would love to hear the highlights of your trip or places I must visit (aside from the main tourist attractions, that's obvious). Although I am only going for a short while, I want to expierence the esoteric and clandestine nooks in order to find the root of Parisian culture. April, why must you be so far away?

my friend is there on a study abroad right now and absolutely loves it. you will have the time of your life!
oh my goodness!! that is so exciting!!!!! I feel the same way as you though - I've never been but I feel that a certain part of me belongs there. though I'm sure every idealistic dreamer feels the same...
Awe, congrats! :D I've only been there once. Montmarte is a magical place! ;)
It must be so cool to have something so big to look forward to! :P
That would be such a very interesting trip, I would love to go there too. I'm happy for you!
And as long as you don't look at the calendar, April won't be that long :)
By the way, the Hepburn pic is really awesome!
How exciting!!! I can't wait to see the pictures you'll take!
You should visit the Shakespeare Bookstore, which is in Quartier Latin, which is the best part of town! Somewhat older and more artsy and just amazing:)
I love crepes with "creme de marron", but I suppose food is very personal. You could give it a go though;)
i've been, once, but that was more than ten years ago, so i don't remember much. but i remember it was a gorgeous city :)
have fun!
ahhhhhhhhhh! i'm so jealous!!! i have wanted to go to paris for a long long time. it seems so pretty and so exciting! i hope you have tons of fun!!!

How exciting!! My mom grew up in Paris, she hated it. She described with a twinkle in her eye exactly your day dream, in that little apartment, 5 minutes away from the Champs Elysees, fresh baguette and eclaires every day- and then she'll say, "oh but no i hated it." And I just want to slap her. She was spoiled, you're gonna have an amazing time <3
that's wonderful news, hope you have a glorious time!
Yey! The excitement!
I have just booked, last week to take my girlfriend to Paris in November.
It is for her birthday and I am so so excited.
I have not been there since I was a little girl.
I am so excited for you :)))
