Flirtatious France

Paris, France

July, when its summer in France

      3. Where did you stay?

I stayed at Etap Hotel Paris Porte de Montmarte, it was very nice, clean and had good service.

4. What was your favourite location?

The Eiffel Tower because it is just spectacular and you can get some awesome photos in front of it.



       


      5. What was your favourite activity? 
    
     My favourite activity was walking up the Arc De Triomphe because when you reach the top you get a great view of Paris.

       6. Name a song that framed your trip? Or reminds you of your trip?

A song that reminds me of my trip was a song played every morning on my Contiki bus which was ‘Stereo Love’ by Edward Maya.

Hello – Bonjour

Thank you – merci

Good bye - Au revoir

Sorry – désolé

Do you speak english ? - Parlez-vous anglais

      8. Words of Warning 
     
      Be careful of thieves especially directly under the Eiffel Tower.

      9. List 3 essential clothing items

A dressy outfit for a classy dinner and a fun night out, walking shoes especially if you plan on walking up the Arc De Triomphe and Eiffel Tower and a cardigan because the weather isn’t consistent.

      10.   List 3 essential personal items

A camera so you can capture amazing memories of the spectacular sights France has to offer. Also a book with French translations and a map because getting around Paris can be confusing.

      11.   Currency convertor

1 Australian dollar equals 0.81 Euro.

      12.   Name one thing that is highly recommended by you which is great value for money

I recommend going to a Cabaret show, you are provided with great entertainment such as dancers, comedians and juggling acts.

      13.   Traditional food that you recommend to try

Go to a French patisserie and try a delicious sweet of your choice!
 
14.  Something to push your boundaries

Snails, they may look ugly but they don’t taste too bad.
