Hello Paris Experience the City like a Parisian
Paris is always a good idea, especially if you have cool friends (aka des amies, aka us) who know all the hidden passageways, the must-see art exhibitions, the drool-worthy restaurants, and the best people-watching spots. Experience the City of Lights like a local, more Amélie in Paris than Emily.
