After leaving Granada, we took a flight to tourist capital, Paris. There are many things I love about Paris (Fashion, Architecture, Macaroons!) but, there is one daunting thing that always makes me flinch when a trip to The City of lights is mentioned: The Metro.
Call me spoiled all you want but, after living 7 months in a city with a Metro system most of Europe envies, it’s a big shock to see that the Parisian metro is on par with the NYC Subway system. Unpleasant aromas, rats and tattered walls house the sprawling network that connects every corner of Paris. It was difficult to avoid it, and believe me, I tried! Unfortunately, most of the attractions in the city are at least 15 minutes apart from each other. All complaints aside, Paris greeted my return with the vibe it is known for. I don’t think I can ever get enough of walking along the Seine, staring at the statues of the Notre Dame or standing beneath Le Tour Eiffel.
